@Dathon Q, his patience tried. Picard, his attendance lacking. Riker, with many women.

Why doesn't Windows support flag emojis?
Goats are among the most revolutionary of all animals
When a goat finds a way to escape captivity, it will not leave right away. Instead, it will teach every other goat how to escape, and they will go together. They will go back and help the little ones, the sick, the slow. They do not leave any behind. It is a beautiful sight to behold.

Tech writers: nono. what we mean is that our advertisers can't pump money into profit like they're used to
Masto users: [swears in French]

I haven't seen that in sooooo long.
federation works.
defederation will not break federation, because if an instance completely defederates it'll just be centralized.
the federation will still exist even if instances defederate.
the federation is a massive hive-being unconcerned with the whims of the few
Curse you, fast-moving federated timeline! Making me boost the wrong toot.
