For all the creatives out there. This is something I've been involved with - for me as a musician it creates a community of practice, where normally the actual creative practice is a very lonely one. I need people. If you need people, just to notice while you work, and want to share things as you build/create/make them, then this is a place for you:

YapNet.org (it's not a social site, it's a creative sandbox)

Realizing with utter horror that "do not telegraph my wife stop" is no longer around

"Next time work makes you feel less than human, should you gently speak truth to power, or should you use mindfulness to self-regulate & maintain function in an oppressive system? Should you choose to self-regulate, are you tacitly thanking the oppressive system for giving you the tools of self-regulation to begin with? Furthermore, how much of this experience—this process of spelunking into my mind—should be comfortable and brightly colored? How much should feel good?" https://www.theringer.com/tech/2018/10/25/18010314/meditation-headspace-insight-timer-apps

Crumbling online discourse and the role of decentralisation as path to agency for better discourse https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2018/10/disintegration-of-discourse-and-decentralised-tools/

Sorry for my absence. I'm fighting fascism right now. Things are serious in Brazil. A black man was murdered, stabbed 12 times while the murderer yelled the name of the fascist candidate. A girl with a t-shirt against the candidate was kidnapped by 3 men, who beat her and draw the Nazi symbol on her with a knife.

We are forming a resistance. However, Brazil needs you. We are afraid. This is a cry for help. Search for news about Brazil and share them of you can, please.

Happy Junday! (jort sunday)

how to explain federation in one sentence: "it makes many websites work like one website." there, simple, done. now you can focus on explaining why people want to use mastodon / what will make them feel at home / guiding to a preferred webspace beyond practical security concerns
