@MLClark

Please take good care of that incredible brain and very empathic heart, ML. 💙🫂

I hope to see you return. I will carry the lessons I gained from your contributions over these last years.

@_txgal Thanks for sharing that, I guess i better learn more about this Jellyroll guy:)

@AskTheDevil @allin @SpaceShanks had written a response earlier today suggesting Signal, maybe he has thoughts on this too?

@sazemisery this was our last year after ~26 with the family. We used to be 25+ strong, now we're down to 2-3 of us. Same hotel room on the beach for 18 of the most recent years, even during COVID we were able to go

Sorry about the focus on them, I was not being careful enough. And the pic I really intended is on this message

Hey New Eggs-

This place is different. Ask questions. We’re usually nice here if you are. Use hashtags liberally

Sorry, no algorithm here. You’ll have to go exploring to find cool people. It won’t be that hard. It throws people off but it’s better really.

Create filters. Block people you don’t like. Follow those you do. No bots. No ads.

If you find you like it here, go so we can keep the lights on.

.

Oh and dig into the documentation, this place has so much more you can do than it first looks like.

Fun scavenger hunt:
- Find the entropy board
- Change to the more bird like view
- Find the
- Find out which countries are blocked
- Find the monitoring page
- Join a
- Get verified
- Say hello to Jester

@corlin Thanks for sharing this Corlin. I think I will PDF print it so i can see it locally easily. I am hopeful that many of these preparations will end up having not been necessary, but at least there is a little time for deep breaths here

Good advice:

Right. Here's your to-do list for the next two months to put you in the best possible position to survive what's coming:

This may seem like an obvious point, but I am making it for myself as well as anyone else who might benefit.

Don’t spend ANY of your precious time and life force reading, watching, or listening to the glee of those who praise this election outcome.

Not everyone who voted for DJT is like this, of course.

But for those who are spitefully pleased? Turn them off in your mind.

They’ve gained so much—don’t give that part of you away.

@th3j35t3r I had to see what the kerfuffle was about, so found and turned on simplified mode (settings and shortcuts column is way to the right for me), and I have to say "Why didn't you... wouldn't it be better if... that should be over there...I want different..."
Just kidding, kicked back to Advanced so all is right with the (CoSo)
world again.

@MrGoat That's one hell of a driedel! Is he like, Jewish Thor?

@th3j35t3r

You’ve launched and cultivated a lovely community of good folks 🙂

Hey a heads up,

For all you folks that are thinking about going out into the rural country, to escape the cities, and "prep" for some believed coming disaster.

Just Don't

There are people that live there. We are mostly friendly to visitors, but DO NOT suffer fools. Do not cross fences. Open gates. Or walk and camp on land that is not yours. Ask nicely, be prepared to receive a NO.

Remember that State parks and National forests, and wilderness areas. Will never be your homestead.

overheard: This isn’t sore losing. I’ve been disappointed in elections before. This is the hard cold realization that the faith I had in who we are as Americans was a lie. That compassion for our neighbors being an American virtue, is a lie. That equality for everyone is a lie. I’m not mad, I’m hurt.
I lost my country to fanaticism and extremism just so a single rich man wouldn’t have to own up to the consequences of his actions.

Musk & Trump are now one & the same. Your Twitter data is Trumps now.

Here's how to mitigate:

1) Create a new Twitter account no identifying names etc.

2) Got to the account you're trying to obscure & change ur @/handle to make it available.

3). QUICKLY Go to the new account and change it's @handle to ur original @/handle

4). Deactivate your original account.

Eventually your original data will cycle out of their backups & nobody can take your handle.

It is done >
