Is your main timeline getting a bit too busy? Does it feel like you're following too many people? You can split your main timeline into smaller mini-timelines using Mastodon's Lists feature:

➡️ fedi.tips/how-to-use-the-lists

It's slightly fiddly to set up, but once you get started Lists can be extremely useful.

You can optionally hide any List's accounts from your main timeline, to make it a bit calmer.

Most common questions about Lists are answered at the link above!

Sometimes when I’m having a particularly lousy day, I say “Computer, end program.” You know, just in case.

I am once again wishing all people who want to dictate how and with whom consenting adults can have sex a very mind your own business.

I'm about to retire (again...) in a few weeks. I'm looking out for opportunities to give back. I'm interested in either speaking/teaching/workshops (very willing to travel) or any #OpenSource or #NonProfit groups that would like some #UX help. I'd appreciate a boost!

Nothing says ban assault rifles like 5 school officers, 8 federal DEA officers, 13 U.S. Marshals, 16 sheriff’s deputies, 25 Uvalde officers, 69 officers of nearby law enforcement, 91 state police officers plus 149 U.S. Border Patrol agents being scared of 1 shooter with an AR-15.

Pretty much sums it up.
There are deeper layers, like "belief", #media & "social influence" & the gullibility of many who are served up nonstop lies & rewards for being part of the (alt) #truth bubble. (Dome?)

I'm being kind; Yes, there are also blatant haters, self-serving con artists, grifters, merchandisers, etc.

I've come to appreciate this brief but pithy observation.
Why would anyone deify a #cult leader who preys on them?

What does he offer? 😈

“The world is your oyster!”

Oyster: WTF does that mean?!?

This is a pretty detailed breakdown of the mirai botnet creators, the takedown and the after effects.

I'm surprised that people are calling DDOS kids hackers, also surprised at the post conviction story. It's a good read.
