@Cdespinosa "Vegan" is often used as a euphemism for plastic, eg, "vegan leather". "Plant based" helps rule out that particular con.

My Thanksgiving thought for you all:

"There are things you do because they feel right & they may make no sense & they may make no money & it may be the real reason we are here:
To love each other & to eat each other's cooking & say it was good."

@bynkii I only raised my hand because you started off talking about money — that is, you understand that REAL moderation costs $. Ya get what ya pay for.

If this idea ends up sticking around, keep me in mind. I've been moderating online communities of all kinds for nearly 30 years, and I'm told I'm pretty good at it.

I keep thinking I should do an #introductionpost, but the concept just exhausts me. Do I cover Dori version 1, 2, 3, 4, or (the current) 5? I've been a lot of different people over the years, and I don't want to write a memoir (it's not all that interesting).

What sticks out to me is that right now I'm really trying to look forward more than backward. And so: here's my current dating profile. 🤣

@atlauren I rarely used Discord up until a month ago, when I participated in a project that required it. Now I'm kinda hooked — it has a lot of features I like.

My daily social media check now requires me to look at:

• Facebook
• Twitter
• Slack
• Discord
• Tumblr
• CoSo
• Instagram
• Mastodon

This is ridiculous.
