@jerry (Ah, update: the MAC thing was just a followed-the-original-paper-too-closely accident and is fixed now: https://pleroma.site/objects/e6be85b7-3169-4172-859d-3e546b68be97 )

@nico but I'm,,, special,,

@alana WHO THE FRICK PRONOUNCES IT "b-unzip"??

I WILL HUNT THEM DOWN ANY COVER THEM WITH SOFT BUNNIES

@HTHR MY PLEROMA ADMIN COULD INSTANCE-BLOCK YOUR HONOR ROLE STUDENT.

@nico Also, the words Mastodon people say that secretly identify each other is "You should quit corporate-owned social networks and join Mastodon".

If they both say it at the same time, in sync, they know they're both Mastodon people.

@nico I mean, (a) so are most of the characters I project with my face,

but also (b) this is probably a joke from Tumblr people -- there was a mininally-but-still-kinda-ironic popular post about it in 2012(?), and then it faded, and then in 2016(?) got brought back up as a "haha that was stupid" thing. That is what the refrance.

That specific moment when you've been looking through a video-essayist's works for ones that are about topics you care about, but then you look at the next one down about some random topic and realize,
eh,

@Elizafox Carpooling/ridesharing makes sense, but cabs seems... not so much?

Like, gas cost is the main issue, innit? And that would, like, double, the gas cost, wouldn't it? That doesn't seem like it would solve anything?
(Unless, as is quite possible, I'm Wrong about one of those parts.)

@Elizafox Does it need to be going at supersonic velocity? For some reason I feel like it could probably be going slower, but I guess I've never looked it up...

@amydentata Like, reactive pacing, or something.
Maybe.

If something hits you dramatically, you can wait a bit before continuing to think about it and come to terms with it. (Which a reasonable reader-to-you will also do.)

@amydentata Some of it, I feel like, is something slightly less-so than the difference between listening to an audiobook and having a book read to you?

I'm just rEALLY DEFENSIVE OKAY??

@dzuk @SuricrasiaOnline "Current status: Active"
wHAT.
STILL?

@melissasage The two things that are working on federated blogging are Plume and Write.as, but neither of them are multimedia...

I think there was some talk about trying to basically replicate Tumblr, but I don't remember if it went anywhere?
