A group of protestors painted a street mural that reads "Oligarchy" in front of Twitter's San Francisco headquarters today.

Mother boosted:

In gentrifying east Los Angeles, neighborhood "guerrilla gardeners" are using the #environmental protections of black walnut trees to fight luxury home developments — and save tree canopy and the character of their communities.

As they say, "the black walnut is the organizer" and what a powerful symbol it has been.

There were three men came out of the West
Three kings both great and high
And they have sworn a solemn oath
John Mastodon must die.

They took a tank and ran him down
With bullets in his head
And they have sworn a solemn oath
John Mastodon was dead

But when the Spring came kindly on
And showers began to fall
John Mastodon got up again
And did surprise them all...

@PeterSoukup @acosta I deactivated both my Twitter accounts last night when I found out he did that. I won’t support anything that’s so freely suppresses journalists. That’s a dangerous line that’s been crossed.

Mother boosted:

@acosta I don't think journalists who have been banned from Twitter should go back, or worse, praise that piece of human garbage Elon Musk with a sigh of relief he has let them back. It's pathetic. Let Elon and his Nazi friends rot in that hell hole Twitter has become. Corporate social media are harmful to democracy anyway. Mastodon and Fediverse is the future!

@thegpfury I love those! I really like the concert photos for Abel. I want to shoot more concerts - they’re so exciting!

Mother boosted:

As I cross 1K followers, I wish I had something more meaningful to say. Instead I will borrow from Thich Nhat Hanh:

"Nothing exists by itself alone. We all belong to each other; we cannot cut reality into pieces. My happiness is your happiness; my suffering is your suffering. We heal and transform together."

Let's make Mastodon about sharing in both the joy and suffering of others, with kindness, compassion, and love.

Mother boosted:

Welcome to all our new friends. We’re glad you’re here!

Mother boosted:

Tweet from @joinmastodon on Twitter (account has been reinstated) which states: "As a company from eastern Germany, we know that building a wall to try and keep people from leaving isn't a good idea."

Mother boosted:

Be kind to those who say Mastodon is too slow or too difficult. We all know it’s much faster to find or create a community here than it is in real life, but still, that process pales in comparison to the aggressive engagement algorithms that have battered our nervous systems for years.

Like detoxing from a drug, it can take some effort, but it’s worth it.

I was just sent a copy of this glorious oral history of the San Diego Comic Convention, as it grew from a tiny comic con to the International Event it is now. Fascinating stuff from people who were there. Big thumbs up. (Now with the alt text that didn't post last night!) It's called See You At San Diego.

It's that time of year again... To celebrate the 178th anniversary of the publication of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, here's the brilliant Neil Gaiman reading the novel for the New York Public Library podcast https://wp.me/p5l5eh-1id

@Em0nM4stodon Thank you for this!

HELP REQUEST: Please boost!

If you have (or know someone who has) visibility to an audience of Australians, especially disadvantaged or vulnerable Australians, can you please let them know that there are safe, sustainable social outlets at https://thefediverse.au
The wider we can spread this, the more people we can help.

@cybersecdancer This is so pretty!

Mother boosted:

Things I've learned about Mastodon this week:

1. Photo captions are read by screenreaders for people who have impaired vision. The more descriptive you make them, the more people can appreciate your post.

2. Hashtags should be "camel style" which means you capitalize each word in the tag - this enables screen readers to identify different words in the tag,

3. Reblogging boosts posts and favourites do not.

4. Hashtags are way more important here than on the birdsite.

@frwessling Mmmmmm! Deliciously Irish.

The murderous dish I had was smothered pork chops. Chops, onions, sauerkraut, apples, seasoning, and brown sugar. 🤤🤤🤤
