I’ve entered my shacket era.

@robb 🙏 tough losing our buds.

Nice idea from @simon - a monthly paid-newsletter where you get _less_ information from him. I prefer the firehouse (but can still send a one-time sponsorship amount to help support Simon's work).

@jbaty No, we won’t.

@clarko !!!!! Congrats to you and @lindadong !!

@jasonsantamaria yes yes… lots of great stuff.

@jonaspelzer cool, they have some great photographic work.

@adam Is this your site/magazine? I wish the about page said who was publishing it.

@jasonsantamaria I was trying to remember where I remembered that name from… the Russ & Daughters rebrand. 👌

Renewed my subscription to @ivory. Remember, we all need to support Mastodon, and the instance you use, and the client applications you use with money. The fediverse costs money to maintain. Small amounts matter.

I recommend going notification-free in as many areas of your life as possible. Reclaim your own attention. 🩷
