#monsterdonsavesChristmas 🎅

okay if we're doing #monsterdonsaveschristmas is looks like it will have to be Dec 21

its a giveaway. (not a raffle) we're not collecting money or selling tickets or anything like that

you donate to charity of your choice (we'll recommend a couple but you can donate wherever you like) send us a screenshot (with your personal info scrubbed! we don't want it!) and we'll enter you in the giveaway. donate any amount you like (also if you can't afford to donate you can still be entered. you will have the same odds of winning something regardless)

Dec 21 is coming fast so if you are contributing something for the giveaway you're running out of time to have it done

also I would really love a volunteer to be the person everyone dms their screenshots to. your task will be to keep a tally of how much has been donated (and keep the tl up to date on that) and to keep a simple spreadsheet of who's entered so we can pick winners, literally just a numbered list of names and then we'll pick random numbers (its one entry per person so its very simple) edit: someone has volunteered for this!

also if any lawyers on here know of any legal issues we need to be aware of please, please let us know

sheep are just goats who have given up

but also goats are just sheep who choose violence

if fedi tried to agree on lunch it would take 16 hours, five flame wars, six instance defederations and someone would start a splinter group called 'Decolonize the Salad'

lol new scam just dropped

Werner Herzog’s Mastodon: A Descent into the Federated Abyss

(Footage of server error messages, ancient memes and a lone penguin trudging across ice)

Herzog voiceover: Mastodon is not a social network. it is a cruel experiment in decentralized yearning. Each server a fragile island in a sea of loneliness held together by spite and CSS

The people here: disillusioned scholars, artists, shitposters, furries,and someone named toadwitch69@haunt.penis
, speak in codes I cannot decipher

There is no algorithm. there is only what you choose to see.
and what you choose may destroy you

Ken Burns' Mastodon

(America the Beautiful plays on a violin over sepia toned stills of the timeline)

folksy narrator: In the autumn of 2018, they came. migrating from Twitter. From Tumblr. from LiveJournal. they arrived disoriented, with usernames like @froggychair@weird.gay
and @anarchywitch@mastodon.wtf

they brought with them what they could carry: half-finished drafts, anime screenshots, and an unshakable distrust of blue checkmarks
