It is bizarre to me that somehow Jesus Apocalypse Doomsday Preppers and Hippie Anarchist Homesteaders have somehow ended up in the same Anti-Vax group.

Depending on how you want to define it, I’d say “spiritual” grifting has been going on for literally thousands of years. Tens of thousands, and more. I’d even bet there were Neanderthal grifters chasing down marks for an extra chunk of #mastodon meat. It’s in our DNA.
While not a very well-known account, I tried the same thing for a couple of weeks, trying to get people to migrate to #Mastodon.
The #Post strategy, as I remember it, was quite different. The wanted a centralized platform earn royalties for professional writers, was my take on the #DeadBirdSite back then.
This is different. OFC #Elmo would block that!--This would have destroyed the value of the #Twitter acquisition--virtually global reach/a...
Shuster’s ‘Showman’ was supposed to be the definitive Zelensky biography. But it’s not While "The Showman" offers some intriguing insight to English-language readers about President Zelensky’s early career, as well as his evolving sense of national identity over the years, there are questionable elements of the book that detract from its overall value to the expanding collection of literature on Russia's war against Ukraine.

Hay un grupito de chat en #Steam que lleva @capparis para que más personillas de #Mastodon que hablen #espanol puedan jugar juntas. Mandadle un mensajito para que os invite si os interesa. :catjam:
Personally I’m glad #bluesky is open to the public. I don’t really get all this pearl clutching by the #fediverse on whether it’ll federate and can we host a server. I’ve gone through the docs extensively and it seems pretty clear they have a staggered and logical approach to server portability that preserves the users timeline with zero interaction.
Not every group can be served properly by every social media network. Hopefully #mastodon can continue to grow their team and take inspiration from some of the great work by the bluesky team. Also hopefully someone can make a bridge between the two services at some point and we can stop having this chat.
