It's called Mannequin Luv. Somebody slips it into a kid's drink, next day he wakes up at the post office covered in soy sauce.

My favourite fantasy system is ethical capitalism.

Time to embrace sadness to make it go away faster. Loading up the chillhop playlist and passively reading to pass the time.

The current list of ways something can get into the federated timeline [of your instance]:

- someone from your server is following that user
- someone from your server replied to that user
- someone from your server is following someone who replied to that user
- someone from your server liked/boosted it
- someone from your server copy/pasted the link into the search box, causing the server to load it

Once again, I am going to urge people to read though this github issue and voice your opinions.

So I'm seeing some discussion about why Mastodon isn't necessarily taking off with certain minorities (let's be honest, they mean POCs while trying to dance around the term, this place is super White asides from the apparent Japan contingent).

Here's some thoughts:

1. The whole notion of "instances" is really unintuitive. When you Google "Mastodon", you get an instance like mastodon.social, but it's not immediately apparent that M.S isn't your only option or WHY you'd want a different instance
