@jeffjarvis @mmasnick Good to learn that I suck at a job that I totally don’t want. Also, peeps, give some love & a little moolah to your . It’s unenviable work and hard. ♥️

I was planning on spending my evening working on @pixelfed, but I had to deal with and then

I was able to make some progress on Pixelfed (hello /api/v2/instance api) and reach out to the Calckey devs on feature compatibility but I wasn't able to focus on as much as I'd like.

This weekend I'll be laser focused on , don't worry 😉

@dansup @pixelfed
I wanna post pictures but my account won’t let me!

It looks like my instance, gram.social, is running outdated software and has been for a few weeks. (@stux seems too busy to be able to address this).

1.) Is it possible to just delete a pixelfed account?

2.) Can one just create an additional, new, separate account on another pixelfed instance?

Thx!

@atomicpoet it would mean moving ones profile or account over to a calckey instance, is that right?

@atomicpoet I’ve joined the calckey.social server and everything seems generally ok. I didn’t break anything yet.

My cousin: "It's hard to really nail down my political philosophy. I'm not Republican or Democrat." (Though he supports nearly all Republican positions.)
"Oh?" I asked, unknowingly. "Like an 'Independent'?"
"Well...I actually have a lot more in common with anarchist philosophies. I'm actually anti-coercion, really."
"Wow, so you're an anarchist?"
"Yeah, anarcho-capitalist."

Forgive me, everyone, I had no idea how funny that was at the time.

The Question of Joe Biden’s Age: “It’s a Legitimate Concern”

At 80, President Biden is at the peak of his career. As he makes another run at the White House, those around him see a man with unfinished business who’s still deeply concerned about American democracy. But can they prove to the American voters that he’s up to the task?

I’m going to talk about democracy because I’m seeing, I’m reading, I’m hearing increased focus on civil war and violence.

@wendinoakland@mastodon.social avatar

@gwfoto the President’s ability to tell - and laugh at - jokes about himself and his decent comic timing indicates an elaborately functional brain. He is still a man who lives with and has overcome a stutter - that’s never quite over. His age is fine.

I remember right where I was standing when I aggressively didn't care to watch the coronation of King Dullard the 1st.

@shoq awoke from dead sleep at 4am PDT, so watched five bizarre minutes of the crowning. What the actual fück?

oliphant, to random

I thought he was already coronated. Was there a pre-coronation? What was all the pomp and fuckery a few weeks ag--

You know what. I don't care.

wendinoakland,
@wendinoakland@mastodon.social avatar

@oliphant too many jeweled whatnots; too few days? It’s a ridiculously complex process, the kinging business, lots of church doings, chitter chatter, scepter-polishing, fawning about and so forth. But after Liz passed Charles was put in charge as stand-in regal. Effing weird. Creepy, even.

wendinoakland,
@wendinoakland@mastodon.social avatar

@oliphant yeah, definitely. But they’re real gems and gold, forced out of the deep soil by heartless villains born of “better” blood, by the broken, whipped bodies of their captives? A little funny, mostly ghastly.

Wired says is the space for “the Internet elite”.

So what they’re saying is that is for status seekers and clout chasers.

You know, the spot for media gatekeepers to pad their articles with social media posts that say something to the effect of, “This!” and “This!” and “You, sir, just won the Internet!”

Spam (like the torrent of cryptoscamspam lots of people got this morning) has been very rare for me here (and dealt with quickly), but I've noticed that almost all of the spam I've gotten has been via Mastodon's DM feature.

I really wish there was a way to turn DMs off or at least restrict them to people I follow. Control over incoming DMs was a thing Twitter did better than here.
