some people have mentioned the firehose can be overwhelming. I personally like it but I pin it off to the side and follow my lists. Here is my configuration.

Just a reminder to new folks, if you're posting your scores for wordle/wardle/wordle/quardle/quordle/etc, use the hashtag #wordle so folks who don't share our enthusiasm for word games don't have to mute the rest of your wonderful posts to get rid of all the score posts.
@JohnMeadows i really missed being in school, it’s nice to use that part of my brain again and be challenged in a new way.

Every once in a while, I get inspired to do political art. Not often, but once in a while.
This is titled "Trump's War". I did it fast, so it's not my best... but the message is clear.
@Maude I'd crazy proud of them, I think they'd like me to tone it down a little actually ;) I am glad you found your way through, everyone should be able to decide their path.
@Maude the art on your profile is amazing!! one of my kids is heading to art school in the fall, their talent did not come from me :)
Anyone else back in school after some time away? I'm getting my Masters in Ed slowly but surely :)
@Niobia hope it goes well :) presenting can be stressful
@kel clearly I have a problem ;)

Fair Warning: CounterSocial is so constantly interesting, that you may find yourself losing productivity. #worktoot

The Trump brand is damaged.
He will never be President again.

I am an artist, and part of social media for me is telling the world about my art. There are things that I have made that are for sale: prints, books and music. My sole purpose for being on #coso is not to sell things though, this is a great community with positive interactions and it is a nice place to be. That being said, I spent many years in other places and had no luck getting my message out. And after one day on coso someone bought one of my books. This place is magic.
@SurvivedChaos imagine if we only wore cute seatbelts? I love my masks :)
If you hit the three dots under a toot, you can do all kinds of fun things, like mute people who talk about other websites for example :) (or just things you don’t want to see)
@LPC let’s hope, it will take care and attention.
