god i wish this author knew how to tell jokes via some mechanism other than talking heads though

« “What’s a ‘lemon’ mean?” he asked, looking up at her.

Zelda shook her head and shrugged. “I assume it’s not the food?”

“Apparently not.” Link hesitantly picked the phone back up and scrolled. “It says it’s rated E.”

“Okay?”

“‘E’ is for everyone. This is not for everyone.” »

who is sending our posts to these people? why? do you actually think that is helping anyone?

glitch.cat.family moderation work is extremely light not because i am super on top of things, but because we post relatively few things to the public timeline (i’m the worst offender) and because i will block any large instance that i’m concerned might federate those statuses to parts of the fediverse that i don’t want to touch

even so, they still get there sometimes, and i can tell because when i go to block an instance i can see whether the instance actor has touched base with us before or not

i don’t federate with benign shitposter types because i don’t federate with anyone i wouldn’t be willing to make smalltalk with at a community picnic, but even when you do think an admin is tolerable, you have to consider the weight of every user on their instance against every post you ever send them, whether originating from your server or not

maybe you are fine with doing their moderation job for them, but i’m not fine with you making *me* do their moderation job for them also

you may have those people blocked or silenced but does the originating server? or are you just creating more work for a moderator somewhere else along the line

if your ideology is that it is your moral responsibility to send people’s #introductions posts to servers where there are people who will harass them, maybe rethink that one for a sec

policies like the “Fediverse Friendly Moderation Covenant” is how jerks on shitty instances get ahold of posts in hashtags to spam; posts don’t just federate on the wind, somebody had to actually send that post to that server yk

If you’re on the first page of our federation tab and nobody on this instance follows an account on your server, it’s not a great sign

« BYE VOLLEYBALL! MAY YOU FOREVER BE IMPLIED!! »

Draw 2 cards. If you failed to draw any cards in this way, flip over the playing mat in anger and demand a rematch.

shhh, it's okay, here's a blanket and a cup of tea

there has been an abnormally high take count in the federated timeline the past few days

« ‘Hey, Jessi, why do you draw the moon as full in nearly every instance regardless of the time that’s passed in the story?’

Thank you for noticing, it’s because circles are a great design element and I love the moon and she deserves it. »
