I hate it when my brain auto reads.

Hey, brain, I was skimming for the good stuff and you just HAD to read that other crap instead. And now you’re refusing to forget it and won’t shut up about it.

So cute dogs with bread heads for eye bleach.

Love following that person, but loathe how often they're boosting other people's posts?

Hop into their profile by clicking on their name, tap on their profile options, then choose "Hide Boosts from [username]".

Now you'll only see their posts in your "My friends" column. #CoSoTips

@ChippySuave good schools should focus on STEAM (science, tech, engineering, ARTS & maths). arts are a very necessary part of life, not a frivolous afterthought

I know this will be a stretch for some of you

But when people are behaving badly--entitled, demanding, hurtful--it is usually because they, themselves are acting out of an injury they may not even recognize.

Trying to remember this can help YOU be less affected when you see it.

You don't have to respond. Just let it flow past.

Message for my fellow Twitter refugees

When we came here from birdland, the good people of CoSo took us in & were kind & welcoming and smart and funny and easy to be with.

And we all can enjoy that good company for a long time for absolutely free & nobody will harass us for money, judge us for not being able to afford a donation

But we added a huge load to a site that was not expecting so many of us. Servers had to be added, etc. We need to chip in if we can. And if we can't? That's okay, too

‘Drop-in’ replacement for gas boilers may help tackle challenge of cutting emissions from home heating

5 years of CoSo you say? In honor of this, I will match the winning bid, up to $500.

Please see @Minholkin post above or the pinned post on her profile for details.

Let’s get this going and raise these bids!

Snow leopard leaps through the air with its paws outstretched. Photographer Ron Conigilaro from Detroit, Michigan captured the moment the endangered big cat did the 'jazz hands'.

There are auctions going on for CoSo's 5th Birthday on the 17th.

Check out #CoSoLifeSupport or #CoSoAuction tag for those.

If bidding isn't for you, then please consider going Pro at US$5 per month.

If that's still too much commitment (understandable in the economic climate), please consider a one off US$3 donation.

Please boost & support our online home if you have the ability to do so. If not, we've got you. 💚

A lot of crap is being tread in here from the Bird shithole.

Thought: For their benefit and the good of the CoSo Actual (ha) community, bird ppl warped and suffering from Bird-Rage-itis and negativity addiction (I was there at a point), should have a decompression staging area, where they can get their bearings, cast away their bitterness /hostility and regain their humanity and see respect the humanity in others.

Lacking that perhaps watch and read and get a sense for things here a bit.
