Job interviewer: So, what are your goals in life?

Me: Not starve to death and able to pay rent and afford insulin.

Job interviewer: Oh, okay, good. Well, where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Me: Bro, I didn’t think I was going to make it this far.

And using IFTTT is how I hacked POSSIE from my website to the Fediverse, @jamez. RSS to mastodon.social. We’ll see whether it is a sustainable approach going forward.

Pontypool had one of the best post-credit scenes in the history of cinema.

@jamez I thought you meant post financial credit and then I read on.

🆕 blog! “Rebuilding FourSquare for ActivityPub using OpenStreetMap”

I used to like the original FourSquare. The "mayor" stuff was a bit silly, and my friends never left that many reviews, but I loved being able to signal to my friends "I am at this cool museum" or "We're at this pub if you want to meet" or "Spendi…

@scidsg hey guys! 👋

Was looking at taking Mastodon Scheduler for a spin before pitching it to our reporting team. We do a progressive investigative podcast (https://fumaca.pt).

What do I need to do to get my hands on an invite?

An eclectic voice coming out of Brazil, extending the already diverse nature of the country’s music to other latitudes.

“Curators and aggregators are integral to the ecosystem. If we all create, steal, and regurgitate the same content then we only reinforce our own echo chamber. Aggregators bridge subcultures in a world of content bubbles and subreddits. […] They find beauty in the mundane and surface wisdom from obscure writings. That is valuable, worth more than gold.”

https://mastodon.social/@davatron5000 underlines an important piece missing from the “build your own website” trend. We need to read, discuss and link each other’s content, in order to promote diversity and growth in the community.

In one word, !

@shellsharks hey, thanks for the tips, solid stuff. I can see you've thought about this a lot, and more power to you for having an audience! :)

I love the idea of going back to the pieces you might consider timeless and keep them up-to-date; nothing could be more anti-doom-scroll / engagement-frenzy.

It's also pretty cool to see your reply being hosted as a post on your site. I need to this on fredrocha.net as well.

For now I'll link to your POSSIE strategy on my post. :)
