I'm here to make friends so I don't feel so alone here at the end of the world. You like #cats? That's a follow. You like/make #music? Follow. You have #ADHD? Follow. You geek out about your hobbies? You like #scifi and/or #fantasy? Follow! Are you funny? Kind? #Antifascist? Worried about the #ClimateCrisis? Follow, follow, follow!
@KydiaMusic i love scifi. I was recently reminded of a TV show I watched back in the '70s when I was about 4 or 5 years old. So i bought Land of the Lost on dvd and it brought back so many memories!
@Xucaen @KydiaMusic and they could never get back because those damn lizard people were always blocking the portal! I remember.
@equalitysiren @Xucaen @KydiaMusic was that their name? Now i have to go watch
@KydiaMusic
Followed for all of the above.
@KydiaMusic check, check and .. double check. Also, I am hilarious convincing others of that is the challenge.. maybe too kind at times so that covers the rest I think?
@KydiaMusic
I have always loved science fiction - & I have adhd too (too many projects - but how could I ever give them up now that they're started & such fun?).
@KydiaMusic
Cats and music cats and music cats and music = win!
@MOULE
@KydiaMusic LOVE cats!
@KydiaMusic following, hi! I pretty much meet all the criteria! I’m trying to read more sci-fi this year although it’s slow-going bc I’m working on a hefty tbr list.
@KydiaMusic welcome and thanks for providing one of the most sincere toots I’ve seen in a while! I will follow you to the outer rim!
@KydiaMusic All of those are good follow tips. Another for me, consistently describes images with #AltText
@KydiaMusic well you'll fit in with us
@KydiaMusic
Big geek energy
Sci Fi is the one thing that most of us have in common
@KydiaMusic Just about all (except the ADHD part).
@KydiaMusic Nice to meet ya! I’m old, don’t hold that against me! Followed!
@KydiaMusic @DTJackson For anyone reading this, I endorse Kydia. She’s cool. :)
@KydiaMusic Hi, you got a follow. I love cats and I'm a songwriter/Composer.
Cats: check
Music: check
ADHD: check
Scify & fantasy: check
Concerned about climate crisis: check
Anti-fascist: double check
@KydiaMusic so basically what you're saying is: I can just follow you, read your boosts, and not have to do any work finding accounts I might be interested in and just let you do all the heavy lifting? sounds good
@Tytrater haha it really depends on how you want to use the site! I also recommend following @FediTips and checking out their site https://fedi.tips/
I found filling out my bio and providing a profile pic and header image goes a long way in making friends and getting more engagement.
@KydiaMusic @FediTips thank you so much! I've been putting off really "getting into" the Fediverse, but I'll def add it to my to-do list! (which I'll totally get to because it doesn't have a million other things I've been putting off and PleaseGodStopJudgingMe )
@KydiaMusic @FediTips this just reminded me of the most unhinged t-shirt I saw a 5-year old wearing while visiting family in MAGA country: "Jesus ain't woke, and neither am I" like bro have your parents READ the bible even once!???
@Tytrater that poor kid
@KydiaMusic as soon as I saw that I thought "I need to come out here more and spend more time with my nieces/nephews to make sure they aren't getting indoctrinated with that hateful nonsense" and now I'm low-key trying to find out how I can arrange to move in permanently and just home school them
@KydiaMusic lol I follow all this things.
I don’t generally comply though just because I meet some criteria that could be a honeypot
Most of mastodon should be following you at least for the cats thing my server used to see 1700 weekly lol
1700 cats?!
@KydiaMusic yes 1700 cat cat tags weekly
@KydiaMusic how are you ? I think I boosted far too many cats there for while eco. Evo probably has me blacklisted on ignore I used to boost all the cats with alt tags I realized I was a little obsessed at that point, most people don’t hear cats point of view while they when cats look at them right lol ?
@EVDHmn
I’m doing ok. Spending far too much time on the fediverse rather than on cleaning house and vocal comping, but at least I’m still being somewhat productive. How are you?
@KydiaMusic getting ready to watch tv with partner have a great night.
@KydiaMusic I see you are a fellow #Apashe enjoyer. Can't be all that bad.
