What a beautiful day for a walk in a neighbor’s field. #Vermont

I'm seeing a lot of people requesting an account at .art to follow their favourite artists. That's fine, you're welcome here! But because of the way the fediverse works, you don't need to live on the same instance as the accounts you want to follow :D We federate with all (non-toxic) instances, so you can find an instance that suits your interests (and suits your administration requirements), and sill follow users from myriad other instances :D

The fog is burning off and it looks to be a beautiful day here in #Vermont

Love the way the light looks as it streams through the morning fog this cool #Vermont morning.

Just discovered that #Wikipedia has a "user box" template to indicate you have an account on a Mastodon server. I've now added that to my user profile (it's over at the bottom of the "boxes" on the right side):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Dyork

If you are a Wikipedia editor and want to add this to your user page, the template info is at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:User_Mastodon

(If you haven't set up user boxes before, you can edit my page to copy/paste how to do it (preferably WITHOUT editing my page, eh? 😀))

Moment is selling a fuckton of phone cases at rock-bottom prices, like $2 each https://www.shopmoment.com/daily-essentials/phone-cases?on-sale=1&in-stock=1&sort=lowPrice

I've spent the past week getting to know myself better and doing some self care.

I am proud to come out as a gay man.

I never thought I'd have the courage to do this and I really want to thank the fediverse for helping me be comfortable with who I really am.

I love you guys ❤️ #pride

What do you mean, systemic racism?

I first tried Windows around 30 years ago…

It’s now 2020, and Windows Terminal cannot pipe text into a file without corrupting it with additional characters.

Bill Gates is a billionaire. Steve Ballmer is a billionaire. Charles Simonyi is a billionaire. Paul Allen was a billionaire.

Please, tell me again about your fucking meritocracy.
