Let’s make this the most productive lame-duck session of Congress in decades. And let’s start by lifting the debt ceiling to prevent Republicans from taking our economy hostage.

I like it here.

#chatty 0.7.0-rc4 the multi protocol client (sms, matrix, xmpp) used with #phosh on multiple mobile devices, running on a desktop with multiple #matrix accounts and an #xmpp account.

It's not exactly a "big deal" to run it on a desktop, since one of the ideas with #linuxmobile is convergence, and being able to run the same software across devices (mobile, desktop, tablet, etc), to be able to do this sort of thing.

But it is still very cool to see :)

Imagine a universe where everyone is their worksona, and that's basically the Metaverse

How is abortion an economic issue?

Being forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term means:

— Families are 4x more likely to live below the poverty line

— Parents are 3x less likely to work full-time

— Parents are 6x more likely to receive public assistance

So many people are having a bad first experience with Mastodon because they're using the official app which is lacking features, doesn't allow image uploads randomly, has random slowness, and doesn't give you easy access to the two most active feeds where you can find people (Local and Federated).

Please switch to Metatext, Tusky, or Tooot for a better mobile experience (or even use a browser).

Out of the >15k users that joined this week, over 11k are on the official apps.

Life comes at you fast.

We've said it before and we'll say it again: Crypto is a giant Ponzi scheme.

It's the emoji. A bright…

Aaaaand... my 10 y/o brother took it, said "it's cute"

@mint @r000t @wagesj45 @terryenglish I know @arcanicanis has run into the same issue.

He was actually asking Alex to add on a feature to clear that out as well.

@r000t @wagesj45 @terryenglish Worst part is, it isn't reversed even when you forcefetch an object. I had to manually clear the unreachable_since row when a large instance goes back online, and this works, but I can't force all the admins to do the same.

@terryenglish @Moon oh also, there's 1 user on my instance, not 40,000. I'm not restricting another person from being able to see your "content"

@terryenglish @Moon Meh. Governments and politics on social media are typically acting in a performative-only way that's very much like corporate brands or celebrities and that's stuff I really don't want in my feed as I consider that to be anti-social behavior.
There is newspapers/TV for that kind of stuff.

So Dems keep control of the Senate, and the House may end up 1 or 2 votes down (or up). If this isn’t a repudiation of Trumpism — its belligerence, bigotry, nastiness, and election-denying dangerousness — I don’t know what is.
