My daily (?) request to all those enjoying - pretty please use the hashtag! That way those of us who are less enthusiastic (or perhaps even downright curmudgeonly) about it can tune it out.

And to those already hashtagging it - thank you!

Those who boost my posts are happier, more intelligent and better looking than those who don't according to a study I made up.

Once upon a time I believed in once upon a times and happily ever afters but I grew to be an adult and the weight of the world has exhausted me to the point where I’m too tired to entertain such childhood dreams.

I'm just a humble country chicken admin, but I've been thinking a lot about the cost of the fediverse and how we can improve it for all of the instances... in a coop kind of way

The cost of handing all of the media is THE major problem for me atm.

"Misaligned Aardvarks" released!

Key 13's entry to the Fedivision Song Contest 2024 is now available to stream and download.

The B-side is a newly remixed version of "Primavera" - Key 13's cheesy butchering of a Vivaldi classic.

Exclusively on is a new Anniversary Remaster of "Solarpunk Grazers", last year's contest entry.

While everyone's songs were awesome (and I really struggled sorting!) my top seven are:

“The Roses Outside Grow Suspiciously Red”
by @Dace
Code MIRR
I loved the imagery, the guitar and bass are awesome, and it will probably live in my head, rent free, forever

“Face the Fire”
by @simonvey
Code TAUS
The guitar intro absolutely slapped, lovely lyrics, and cool harmonies.

“Crimson Tide”
by @brindy
Code THRO
Adored the medieval/renn faire vibes and the vocals were beautiful.

“She's all of Me”
by @MTP
Code INTK
This song gave me such Frank Iero "She’s The Prettiest Girl at the Party, and She Can Prove It With a Solid Right Hook" vibes! So pretty!

“Versio”
by @Cobalt
Code COBA
This song was so chill and I loved the incorporation of different language, definitely got stuck in my head.

“All Zombies Go To Heaven”
by @dgar
Code DIZZ
This song is so much fun and unique - everybody should have a zombie song.

“Fire Me Straight Into A Falling Star”
by @sakti
Code BELT
Loved the builds in this song and the vocals - I wasn't expecting them to sound the way they did, but it's rad!

It’s Monday!! It’s also the three year anniversary of the release of the Mastodon-famous song “It’s Always Monday On The Moon”

Written for future moon workers spending long hours doing dangerous work in a lethal environment, my song is about how quickly the enthusiasm for a job like this may disappear quickly due to the isolation and monotonous routine.

The one thing I don't quite get about the is why we even need different software. For example, why can't just be another - more sophisticated - frontend for ?

I had to choose three songs out of thirty I liked, so ultimately I had to choose based on these factors:

  • the music I liked when I was 14
  • would I still like it played in reverse
  • odd/even seconds duration
  • did birds alight on my balcony while I was listening
  • do I already own a t-shirt suitable for a concert where said song is performed
  • would the song still exist in the Non-Shit Timeline

Thanks to all for being so amazing and making me a little less desperate <3

Just hours left.
week is too short. To enjoy and to vote 🤭
But you know, "The good, if short, two times good" (free translation from the Spanish say).

The collection is amazing all together. Thanks to all the participants (and organizers) for making these days better 👏👏💚​:blobbee_heart:​

Bad idea based on sketchy information and potentially false impressions and bad intuition : maybe there should be two separate contests : one for young voters and one for older voters 😄😅

We are in the final hours of …if you haven’t voted yet, the time to do so is RIGHT NOW! A reminder that my song, “Open Your Eyes,” is representing the Constellation of Kasterborous…please consider it while voting. Use vote code KAST!

Finally finished listening to all the entries (and you should too https://fedivision.party). All of the songs had lots of talent, though here are my top ten categorized (badly) in no particular order:

For those trying to work out the puzzle in CONF, there are 3 pianos: one that plays through the entire song, one that plays in bits and pieces, and one that starts a few measures in and plays until the end of the song. The encoded message is buried in the third one.

More hints to come as the week goes on

Since polls are now closed, I can now reveal the hidden message in CONF: Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable -JFK

I wrote how it was all encoded in the post here: https://blazeorange.ninja/?articles%2Fsubtle-in-the-encoding

Special mention to @philsawa who seems to have gotten the closest to decoding it, that I know of
