@Johannab @Annalee Following up on this!

We are pleased to announce @Johannab is the starting member of the next team of community admins!

Hello Wandering Shoppers!

@Johannab has come forward and is being considered to take up the mantle as one of the Shop's Community Admins.

Do you have thoughts on this? Please DM (and only DM) @phildini AND @Annalee on Discord or Mastodon (preferably Discord) if so. Please don't post those thoughts publicly, as we want folks' unbiased opinions.

We'll have an update in roughly a week, and we are hoping to build a community admin team to share the load, so join the conversation on Discord!

Amazing piece. 🌙 💜 👇

"Work is said to have some discrete value that can be exchanged. But we don't need any more work, especially not in the name of creating & maintaining scarcity. What has truly become scarce & precious in this world is rest." by Em Reed.

We are seeing a censorship wave from the right the likes we have never seen. Shredding common core math books, “Don’t Say Gay”, Maus book banning, burning the muṣḥaf, denouncing reality as “fake news”. Do we hear one peep about that? Nope. But try to block direct harassment and it’s a deadly sin apparently.

Most of the time I’m perfectly content to be transitioning in my 30s, but lately I’ve been feeling some sharp pangs from missing out on being a teen/20-something guy.

It’s like I skipped past so much right to Dad Years and honestly sometimes it stings.

transcoding? yeah I’ll bet they do

Hey yall! 💞 I'm $800 shy of my top surgery goal. I'm still dealing with medical bills and would appreciate your aid!

I'm latinx, trans masc and not making enough to deal with the stress of finances. I'm also supporting my underemployed trans gf. Every donation is appreciated and very rad

> the activity pub docs makes it clear how ridiculously easy that would have been. You want my content? Just GET my outbox. Want to send me something? Just POST to my inbox. The server can be anything you want, just format your messages in this (VERY INTUITIVE!) way. It's so simple it's STUPID.

Yesterday the Kansas legislature tried to ban trans kids from sports and overrule the governors veto. They were 2 votes short. Representative @ByersForKansas@twitter.com helped convinced 4 republicans to abstain.

Before joining Mastodon had you participated or were active on BBS (dial-up) or forums (vBulletin style) in the past?

Boosts are appreciated for better sample sizes.

One of the unexpected joys of the fediverse over other places is the addition of weird domains appended on to everyone's usernames.

It makes the web feel like more than just four websites again.

It's both a signal of a smaller more intimate internet and also a larger and far more diverse internet at the same time!
