I'm going to play #StardewValley tonight as a reward to myself for getting a bunch of things done and I'm really excited about it and the music when the game loads up is wonderful!!
Walked in on the cat eating the instruction manual for the vacuum cleaner.
She's giving me this very angry look that I've disturbed her.
Not mandatory or anything, unless it's a rule on your instance. But polite. A case of being considerate to the folks around you.
Something for the folks new to Mastodon. It's generally considered polite to put politics behind a CW. It's honestly a depression and distressing topic these days.
This is the only question that matters.
Is Dana Scully immortal?
Got season 10 of the X Files playing in the background while I crunch through a bunch of translation work. I always forgot how sillyserious this television show is and it's slightly wonderful.

I slept like 12 hours and just woke up super late. But my knee doesn't hurt as much as it did yesterday? So I'm going to try to get lots of work done today.
What's that thing called. That thing where I stand up, I feel AND HEAR an awful horrendous painful snapping sound in the back of my knee, and then my leg can no longer support my weight and I fall over.
This happens like a few times a week and then it hurts for hours afterwards and I really am tired of this.
I put these calls out every so often so here goes:
If you're working on an inclusive game (something with POC/LGBTQ/female characters/relevant themes) please reach out to me, I would love to hear about it!
I can't guarantee coverage and I'm generally very busy but I'm always down to hear about new, inclusive things :)
I think one thing that's important to remember is that #Mastodon isn't trying to kill Twitter. Twitter is doing a fine job of that on its own and doesn't really need the help.
What it is trying to do is create a good, safe service where we can all have a good time and be productive and share art and writing and music and oats, and generally be a bunch of doofuses with a thing for large, ice age mammals together.
We're working on moving mastodon.social media uploads to a new provider 'cause the ARM CPU on the old box isn't dealing with this well
My neck just made a prodigious crack and now my shoulders are hurting less (???) and I'm really tired of the whole "every muscle is connected to every other muscle and pain can be anywhere and everywhere for no good reason" characteristic that human bodies have.

"So you must have lived a long life."
"No no, the BEARD is ancient. It was willed to me by my grandfather, I'm only 23."
I'm glad it's called a "toot" because it's a good hack to ensure that Mastodon never becomes cool
Oh wow help Mastodon is full of newbies. :D

Please direct your friends to joinmastodon.org or another instance of your choice like octodon.social, toot.cat or toot.cafe, etc. mastodon.social is "default" choice for a lot of people and it's getting kinda hammered right now.
