Although my arrival to the Fediverse was during one of the Twitter migrations of last year and was entirely due to the chatter about the place at that time, I didn't actually come from Twitter.

Like I had an account once, but I closed it in 2013-14? because I already hadn't been using it for several years.

Mastodon was probably my first real experience with this sort of public-feed-based social media which probably sounds really weird.

snowmanghost,

@gourd Like, forums, sure, I used forums. I had a couple reddit accounts over time but I used reddit like a forum: I never went anywhere near the front page or even subscribed to any subs; I'd visit the subs I was interested in and bounce.

snowmanghost,

@gourd Oh I agree. I find everything about tumblr confusing.

Just spent the past two hours scrubbing away black mould. My arms feel like they're going to fall off :blobfox_dizzy:

snowmanghost,

@jessica @nuz @puzzler I'm not sure about drinking vinegar straight, although I remember trying these Japanese vinegar+fruit juice drinks several years ago that were pretty good. My partner hated them. :bunny_evil:​

snowmanghost,

@nuz @jessica @puzzler Yeah, I remember liking it a lot. I don't remember what they were called and I've never seen them again, even at the same store where I found them in the first place.

I don’t know which social media platform is going to win, but I’m pulling for Friendster.

snowmanghost,

@Alice Last.fm is still going, I think.

Limping, maybe.

https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2023/07/what-to-know-about-threads/ - "Well, even if Threads abandoned ActivityPub down the line, where we would end up is exactly where we are now. XMPP did not exist on its own outside of nerd circles, while ActivityPub enjoys the support and brand recognition of Mastodon." - holy shit the amount of unwarranted confidence that a huge megacorp can't possibly make things worse here

#threads #meta

snowmanghost,

@gourd For real, and an outsized view of the power and importance of Mastodon as a "brand."

Me: I’ve been going hard on the Internet since I was a teenager, so what do you think?

snowmanghost,

@grum999 @Alice Maybe they should. That president-play clip certainly convinced me she's qualified.

I sure do resist automating personal tasks a lot for someone with so few mental spoons.

Temporarily suspending my personal unspoken rule about boosting images without alt text for brand new accounts from the most recent Twitter migration.

Ok new instance and so new, oh yes that right I never did an old intro, so an intro, since it's traditional.
I'm knocking on the door of 59 years old and autistic and mastodon is my first and only experience of social media. Having been on here now for just over 6 months I can't understate how great it's been. Overwhelmingly I've found it supportive and kind. Which I'm gathering from those coming from other places, isn't always the case. So let's hope this continues. I tend to concentrate mostly on autistic matters, certainly in my posting. But will boost freely anything I feel maybe of interest to others. So you have been warning. Also I can be quite verbose and now have access to a massive character limit and so there will no stopping me now, no stopping me at all, not with this power. Also I have a weird sense of humour. so, hi.

snowmanghost,

@pathfinder @nuz The cutie.city guide to transferring one's account is a masterpiece. So straightforward.

I'm not having a good brain day. I spent a little bit of time cutting my bangs shorter.

It's cloudy and the bright sun is diffused, so it's hard to look up for a photo.
Sensitive eyes!

Thoughts on this look?

snowmanghost,

@Fawn Pretty cute. Little surprised you managed to get all that hair in a bun. If I recall, you have quite a lot of it.

ivy, to random

is there anyone else who doesn't know what to do with their hands and just walks around like a t-rex when no one's around

I have to look at other people and try to copy them when I'm in public so I don't look stupid

snowmanghost,

@ivy I'm not sure that I do, but I think now there's a pretty good chance I'm going to start to.

snowmanghost,

@ivy Arms straight down at all times.

Except when you're talking to someone. Then you cross them.

People do not find this threatening or alienating.

snowmanghost,

@ivy Ah yeah my hands go everywhere when I'm talking to someone and sitting down. It's very noticeable, especially because I avoid eye contact as well.

I also spill a lot of things, but that's usually overshooting when I reach for something. 😅​

snowmanghost,

@studiofox @ivy Pocket's a good place for a hand. Preferably a hoodie or coat.

snowmanghost,

@ivy @studiofox That. I walk with my hands behind my back all the time.

    Ok here we go. This probably hits a few adjacent genres too but I tried to stick to a pretty narrow time period (couple exceptions) and I don't think I have any bands on there that are on either of the other playlists.

    If a band appears more than once it means I really like them.

    https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5X8l8S8cKk7fXJRnlXmYvn

    snowmanghost,

    @Alice @LRRRonEarth @mentallyalex Oh that's dope. I really like that Few and Far Between album.

    Hope you find some stuff you like. :blob_smile:​

    snowmanghost,

    @LRRRonEarth @Alice @mentallyalex Nice! I'm really stoked you're enjoying it (especially since I didn't get that experience you describe in high school - I didn't know anyone else who liked the same kind of music back then.)

    And I don't know if I'd call them that now except for a few songs, but those first few Coheed albums had definite emo influences and Second Stage Turbine Blade was an almost pure emo album (and imo their best one.) That album is one of the guideposts I use to find new music.

    snowmanghost,

    @Alice @mentallyalex @LRRRonEarth Emo hardmode activated.

    Still, nobody went for Brave Little Abacus so it's not totally inaccessible.
