I joined #mastodon last week, on a whim, with no idea what to expect
Minutes later, I was welcomed by @dillyd which has never happened on any other platform and was a wonderful introduction. So I posted a couple pictures of my #cats, and found, to my surprise, people reacting and interacting
Maybe it's because I'm not fighting an algorithm, or maybe I just found a place where folks truly appreciate cats. Either way, I'm very happy to be here, and I hope you're prepared for more cat pictures
@rufustheduck finding @dillyd right from the start is a nice find, one of the nicest posters here.
And posting cats is kind of an easy win here ;-)
Welcome, and have fun!

@bryan dementia would suck, but I'm hoping they'll have that figured out by the time I get there. They seem to have some pretty good leads. Shingles is strongly linked to cognitive decline, for instance, and I guess the vaccine protects against that.

@swelljoe I’ve never smoked and will not start. I’m happy to be a healthy dementia patient over an early preventable death.

I'm having a hard time believing in mousy Peggy, after Handmaid's Tale. June would have murdered all these men.

@bryan survivorship bias survives on survivor anecdotes. My grandmother, a lifelong smoker, died when she was about 60 from lung cancer. No dementia, though, she had that going for her. Entirely aware all the way to the end.

@swelljoe
My grandmother quit smoking when she was 70-ish. She stated her habit of smoking daily at 12. Anyway, at 70, she was taking care of her mother at the time. Her mother (my great-grandmother) spent the last 10 years of her life with dementia.
The experience made my grandmother decide she’d rather be dead than “talk like a fool”. So she started to smoke again. She passed many years later and never had dementia.

@swelljoe Yep. Great show with a good story well acted by all concerned. IMHO.
