folks i'm gonna be real honest with you...
i NEED this Mastodon thing to take off because i just ordered 80,000 of these bumper stickers from the printer, and i can't afford to be caught holdin' my junk if this whole thing fizzles.
please consider my personal commercial interests when choosing a social media platform, thk u!
@jackdaw_ruiz Did you really order stickers? I know other people who have them for their instances.
did i actually order 80,000 of these stickers? yes. 
but in a perhaps more "true" and "accurate" answer to your question, no i absolutely did not do that. 
@jackdaw_ruiz Well I wish you would at least order 1000 or something, because I want one, and know others who would buy them.
we just gon' have to all make our own like it's 1992 and we rockin' a "this is not a Fugazi t-shirt."
@jackdaw_ruiz /me trying to remember what T Shirts I wore in 1992.... in general I'm more of a polo guy, and not T Shirts... so.... I probably had some shirts I bought at concerts, but never wore...
@jackdaw_ruiz I would have gone with “darn tootin’ “
@jackdaw_ruiz I own the patent on t-shirts that say "I'm Tootin' This!"
ohh i want that! i want to monetize a commodity with that precise sequence of words!
[. . . and that's the story of how we went from online mufos to adverse litigants in federal court.]
@jackdaw_ruiz will you be selling these at cost, or for profit?
i'm pleased to announce that all proceeds will be donated to me after first paying off the VERY considerable overhead expenses of being me.
truly i am offering the only ethical consumption you can purchase for $7.95!
@jackdaw_ruiz good luck with your sticker sales! I can print my own for pennies on the dollar. Thanks!
@jackdaw_ruiz Sure thing
😀
:queer:
@jackdaw_ruiz I.. kinda want one...
@jackdaw_ruiz oh thank god, my inheritance has a stipulation i could only spend it on 78,000 bumper stickers and i thought i'd have to go with calvin peeing on the 'tread on me' snake
@jackdaw_ruiz can I suggest “Ur Darn Tootin’” for your next 80,000 run?
@jackdaw_ruiz I sure hope it takes off for you.
@jackdaw_ruiz If these take off, we need a bunch of other stickers with toot-puns. #tootnscoot #tootsinboots #darntootin
@jackdaw_ruiz Is this for real? I'd consider buying one if I stay on the platform for a few months. 😂
@jackdaw_ruiz i just ordered a mastodon t shirt
@jackdaw_ruiz Where can I get these?
@jackdaw_ruiz Best of luck! I would order one from you, but bumper stickers are seen as improper in my part of the world.
@jackdaw_ruiz Please tell me I can order one somewhere.
@jackdaw_ruiz Well, good luck selling them! I want about two but I live across the globe so... 😕
@jackdaw_ruiz some of us in the last week came over from twitter, feeling like psychotic robocops were following us waiting to suspend us and break up follow links. I think you will do well. I don't have much of a clue how it works, though. I still have four columns of stuff jammed on the screen and am typing in a window like a smartphone, but I will learn, I hope
@jackdaw_ruiz OK, that's hilarious. I'm boosting.
@jackdaw_ruiz do people still use bumper stickers?
@jackdaw_ruiz Where can we get these?
@jackdaw_ruiz Can I buy one from you?
I was hoping for a tote bag or at least a sew-on patch since I don't drive. :/
@jackdaw_ruiz i think you are going to die
hi. your post is super fucking weird.
try not talking to people like this for better results in social interactions.
@jackdaw_ruiz i.....kinda assumed like most people I've talked to on here itd be taken as a joke but looking back at that yeah. That wasnt a particularly clever or funny thing to say. Im sorry.
@jackdaw_ruiz #JackRuiz
Pronounced jack cruise maybe
hmmmmm. maybe? this is hard.
i'm just gonna posting in the tags for dirttour or mastodev i think.
@jackdaw_ruiz smart, way easier just to do that!
lol i've been getting that in the past few minutes:
@jackdaw_ruiz do you still have any stickers?
erin. c'mon now with this question.
. . .
. . .
of course they sold out! now excuse me as i come by on this heavy as shit, clunky, solid gold hoverboard!
@jackdaw_ruiz okay but like
how do i get one of them
@jackdaw_ruiz maybe we could sweeten the deal with some stanzo brand fedoras
@jackdaw_ruiz I'll take 5
@jackdaw_ruiz KEEP HONKING I'M BOOSTING
@jackdaw_ruiz To be fair, I have come close to getting ad quotes for those electronic billboards around town for Mastodon.
Server run by the main developers of the project 
It is not focused on any particular niche interest - everyone is welcome as long as you follow our code of conduct!
i just boosted this onto the TL to make a point that last August we would absolutely lose our minds for anything involving the word "toot," but we've since grown more sophisticated and refined in the past year.
and now you cackling jackals have boosted it like another 25 times in just the past few minutes, before i could even write that post. 😤
