@RickASamuelson It wasn't called "Easter" until the 7th Century, and is still only called that in English- and German-speaking countries. Almost the whole world calls it "Pascha" - Passover - and it's in the Spring because it was intended to be the Sunday after Passover. Which is why its date is determined by the moon instead of the sun.

Am I right that there are bunch of different Mastodons? How does that make any sense?

@sugar0addict Sorry. Twitter. Right at the top of my feed: "Elon Musk (see more)." And a Tweet that mentions him.

@sugar0addict I notice that it's now showing me Tweets where "Elon Musk" is the subject, even if they are posted by people with no connection to me.

@BlueVoter24 He's the Horwitz Brother who had a solid solo career outside of the Stooges.

@Cosmichomicide So he's not just a bad businessman, but certifiably insane, too?
