@Jyoti @simon_greenwood Phoenix by Children On Stun, or possibly Secret And Sin by Sanguis Et Cinis.

@Jyoti I'm a very lapsed goth; lockdown brought me back to it, and as one of my pals has been travelling regularly to various parts of Europe for gigs/festivals I've had fun trying out new stuff. It's fun. (Tho that COS one is ooooold.)

Wait. There's a UK cheese-rolling race?

@jeffjarvis Only in one small part of the country. One of those oddball regional traditions!

Is it me or are people less arsey on Mast?

Like, the whole Twitter hierarchy thing, I don't get so much on here?

If I follow a famous and they never interact ever with anyone else, I unfollow them.

I'm here for dialogue, not monologue.

(Of course, some people seek the validation of parasocial adulation. Fair does but nope.)

(Also, dialogue doesn't mean insulting me / being a knobhead. I block at the slightest breeze of twattery.)

@Jyoti I think the lack of quote-tweets helps - there's no dunking. And without algorithms pushing tweets at people, being edgy's not going to get hate-attention, it'll just result in people getting muted/unfollowed, so there's no reward for being a bellend.

I like it!

@Jyoti I really appreciate being able to follow hashtags. Takes me back to my usenet days in a way, being able to use social media for subjects, not individuals.

I've deliberately avoided work-connected stuff on Masto as I get more than enough of that on the Birdsite. Masto is inspiration and recreation.

Gah. Rehearsing pointless arguments in your head, leaving you jangled and depressed, is a rubbish way to spend a Monday morning.

Not enough sleep + need a long walk, like as not.

@JuliaRez A good walk is often a very good plan. Bit of natural light in the eyes, green things, interesting sounds...

(Thank you for the ART by the way. I may have to respond with some CRAFT because I'm no artist but am not a bad artisan.)
