I miss the picture previews of articles, videos etc (like you get on twitter) when using #mastodon app on iPhone, instead of just the text link.

Is there an alternative app that does this?

Hey there folks!

I've just moved my account to a new username. I hope it's not too obnoxious, but I figured better sooner than later.

Since posts don't come over, I'll repost my #introduction once more, this time with CamelCase for accessibility

I live in #PDX with my partner, our #dogs, and our (my) #cats. For money, I do #TechnicalWriting, and spend the rest of my time doing #FiberArts, #VideoGames, #reading, and #Zen #Buddhist stuff, such as sitting down & looking at a wall.

Loves: em-dashes, hair color
Loathes: terfs, cops

‘NIGHT RESCUE’

Beneath icing-sugar stars,
The helicopters blades
Whip my dream.

#poetry. #haiku

Fingers & thumbs

we fold
our world.

#poetry #haiku

The storm pushes up the valley

Like a lump in the throat

Like sellotape fire
Like sea chest cymbals

Like dumping it’s burden
Like counting danger distance

Like spell cast petrichor
Like skid-sod blitz.

John Cage’s 4’33” covered by a death metal band. Done right with sincerity.

PS if you want to read a really excellent biography on the backstory to 4’33” I highly recommend: ‘where the heart beats’ by Kay Larson. 5 stars.

Yet I have absolutely zero issues with eating meat from animals that have been humanely raised and killed. This is a perfect example (warning: graphic content from outset)

I guess I'm not strictly a #vegitarian. More like a humane-atarian.
But I urge everyone who loves bacon to watch this film once all the way through (graphic content duh):

There is nothing as sweet as a mouth full of #vegan testicles.

Thanks Michael. Appreciate the recommendations. Will check them out.

Hi @phoebe
We travel as much as possible. My partner is about to retire so planning more roadtrips once this happens. Just got back from a 5 week trip through South Australia. Highly recommend as a way of seeing #Australia
If you are interested, here is a walk-through tour of our motorhome.

Have you read ‘American Cosmic’?
I found it a challenging and engaging read (tho occasionally encroaching the woo zone).
Have seen the author Dr Pasulka interviews on a number of podcasts. She comes across as authentic and engaging.
I find this whole topic extremely interesting and my own views on the whole extraterrestrial/ high strangeness topics continue to evolve.

My home away from home.

“The wind whistles within me.
I am naked.
Master of nothing, master of no one, not even of my own convictions.
I am my face in the wind, against the wind, and I am the wind that strikes my face.”

-- Eduardo Hughes Galeano (1940–2015)
