@ludibriumventis @nocontexttrek I'm learning as I go & trying to be mindful of the norms/etiquette/conventions. Mastodon instances vary but seems to me more frequent use of CWs out of consideration of others is a feature. I CW Wordle results to spare those with screen readers & food posts for those e.g. vegetarians who don't want to see images of raw meat (Under preferences you can chose to always show media marked as sensitive)

Kia ora e te whānau,
After some faffing around, I've decided that I'll use @soonleenz@wandering.shop as my home instance of Mastodon, and put this account into hibernation. I'm re-creating my follow list there with the nifty import tools so hopefully I won't miss anyone.

Are those of you here in the #Fediverse aware of the amazing resource that is https://mynoise.net?

No?
Let me introduce you.

It has a medieval village #background #noise environment with toggles you can use to increase or decrease the blacksmith shop and market and horse clops (among many others).

Oh, you want a coffee shop? Sure thing.
Rain? Thunderstorm? Gotcha.
Generic white noise?
RPG thrills? Of course.
Tame that #tinnitus? Yes!

Check it out!

So I've been going over my Twitter history, and found out today you can search for your most Retweeted post. Mine maxxed out at 500 RTs but it's a post I am proud of and will gladly post it regardless of platform. #VimesBoots #DiscWorld #BootsTheoryOfSocioeconomicUnfairness

Text reads: “The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.

Nothing I've ever posted got 1000 favs. This is my most ReTweeted and I am quite proud of it. #VimesBoots

Yes, it's a pohutukawa a.k.a. the New Zealand Christmas tree. #pohutukawa #pohutukawageddon #flower

Pictured is a close-up image of a single pohutukawa flower with its distinctive red colour.

It's on!

Pictured is a single Pohutukawa flower (bright red) against a blurred urban landscape background.

It seems plausible that a man known for his big ego dug himself into trouble because of his big ego.

@drskyskull I'm with you through most of this, but tbh I think he said he would buy twitter as a joke/threat, and then people said "no you won't!" and then he took another step to show he was SERIOUS BUSINESS and he thought he could just back out until he realized he was suck
