July 2006 – November 2022. You can now find me in the "Mastodon" fediverse at @[email protected]

User #44196397 seems intent on turning this place into a dystopia of unfettered bullshit. So I've made a permanent home outside in the open fediverse: @[email protected]

Elon Musk is a dangerous idiot.

I don't know why but I saw an "Alliance to destroy Elon Musk's testicles with a spinning kick" flag yesterday 😭😭😭

@rapuckett @sermad I never did with hands. Ee experimented with cameras in different positions (my favorite was elevated above a helmet) but mounting on hands…never occurred to me? I would guess it takes a long time to acclimate.

@rapuckett It is, I remain on "tweet strike". (That post was an accident; https://t.co/P8JOAnuDiq picked it up from my RSS and syndicated it here.)

The employees of @Twitter have been running my favorite place on the internet for 16 years and are now being treated like livestock.

Out of solidarity, I won’t be posting until adult supervision is restored. You can find me over in the fediverse: https://t.co/W8WzaRhbgN

@radiotopia for what it’s worth, I would love to see podcast networks set up Mastodon instances. Especially for “words people” like @pastpunditry to have a safe and verifiable alternative to Twitter.

@Harpers @thomaschattwill @Twitter @premiumbusiness @NYTmag When you create a Mastodon community, it will be clear that @[email protected] is his real account.

I cannot get enough of this meme

@bpick2040 @impiousimp @tomcoates @BillyM2k @elonmusk It might be time to give up on this site, @tomcoates, if not the US entirely.

@RealGhostTrader @Chef_R3d @ValuablOfficial Those of us that live with these crazy Amsterdam housing prices and lease our land from the city do, though. That's why I left Seattle for it. (It certainly wasn't for the tax regime!)

I knew I should have bought in 1806.

[ValuationBot @ValuationBot]

A friendly reminder of how insane property prices are. Here is 400 years of data from Amsterdam. We're living through the biggest real estate bubble ever.

@platinombrero @ValuablOfficial I will not be selling my Amsterdam home because of this chart.

[Hans Gerwitz once lived here @gerwitz]

@RealGhostTrader @Chef_R3d @ValuablOfficial Maybe generational wealth isn’t an indicator of a healthy society.

This feels inevitable at this point. Elon and Mark should not be the only verification providers.

[Mastodon (@[email protected]) @joinmastodon]

Some Mastodon servers are under very heavy load during the past few days due to the extreme spike in user numbers. Remember, no matter which server you sign-up on, you get access to the same decentralized network. You don't have to choose the popular ones!

Cancel culture has gone too far.

[Dipa🇪🇺 #PR 🌏 @amrakunj]

This was the first tweet. The account is now suspended. I hope they give back @iamsimonyoung his $8 after verifying him.
