So Labour won a couple of councils in London. Who cares? Conservatives are making gains all over the place.

Don't go home when you finish work. Go to your local polling station and vote! I don't care who you vote for. I couldn't give a toss if you're one of those.
"Get the Tories out!"
"Keep Labour out!"
"Don't let the Liberals in!"
"Greens, who are they?"
JUST VOTE!

Don't let others influence you.
Don't let others bully you.
Don't fall for the lies that this is about Government; IT'S NOT!

Vote for who you think cares about where you live, not who runs the country.

You have no concept of how the Internet has empowered you! Before the World Wide Web, you'd have to go to the library to find out or pay someone to do something for you. Now, winning an argument is a simple click away.

Went crazy and spent £2 on a mint plant for minted new potatoes. Fresh does smell nice, though.

I see lots of new users asking about or for features on, for example, Mastodon. I would like to see the Bio when I hover over community profiles in #Friendica #Developers. At the moment, all that displays is the username which isn't much use if I don't know the person.

There are people on Twitter bitching about Elon Musk buying the platform and then sending him tweets basically baiting him. Is that so they can come to the Fediverse and cry "See He banned me!"? I don't get it? Poke a dog with a stick and it'll bite you. 🤦‍♂️

Also some(most) people don't know how the internet works , its magic. I've seen it with my bosses, telling them something could and was going to happen, them ' no it can't' and then happening. Obviously they were right and something strange happened , twice , thrice and then we changed as I said and stopped happening. Internet like god works in mysterious ways.

You know, I literally kinda said that a couple of hours ago. I gave someone a URL to copy-n-paste and send to someone else, and they responded with, "I dunno how to do that?" I was like, "So you're on the web every day posting pictures and crap, and yet you don't know how to copy and paste a URL? Are you winding me up?"

Instead of worrying about things that don't directly affect you, focus on things that benefit you and your loved ones. There's plenty out there willing to gripe on your behalf.

I still have my account, just login once or twice a day as always to read what I want.

in reply to Shredni Vashtar

I do have another account @dick_turpin. I'm a bit tamer on Mastodon. This account spews out to Twitter and allows me to be a bit more, umm? Naughty? I own this instance, so the only one that can shut me up is me on here. :-D
in reply to Shredni Vashtar

Good idea. You might also want to follow @Ken Fallon (PA7KEN, G5KEN) poke him with a stick although he will try to beg you for content for HPR Hacker Public Radio. Ken's a great guy, I've met him a fair few times.


Loving all the people doing introduction posts on Mastodon (Fediverse) reminds me of the intro posts on #Hive

I don't think I'll make any more purchases via Klarna sick to death of the emails and text messages warning me that £15.00 is coming out of my account.


So while I agree it's good to see all these Twitter users coming over to Mastodon and the Fediverse, I am slightly saddened that they are doing it because they feel they have no choice rather than making a conscious decision to embrace freedom. Still "Every cloud...." and all that. #hugs

Waiting to see how long it takes for mastodon.social to fall over with all this sudden influx. If only Ex-Twitter folk knew how Federation worked? If you're in the UK join mastodon.org.uk you can still Federate to .social users and it would ease their load.


I'm not bothered coz I have my own #friendica instance. If you're leaving Twitter follow me on my increasingly default account of: castlecannon.house/profile/sre… or mastodon.org.uk/@dick_turpin

This morning while walking Charlie, a small van pulled onto the entrance and sat there on the other side of the busy Ind Est road that we needed to cross; "You watch, the minute we start crossing Charlie that arsehole is going to reverse." three feet from the rear of his vehicle, on came the reversing lights.

Further down the road is a unit with a large car park round the back with a large empty area in front of the building but hey, where did twat #2 want to drive his car? Yep. Right where Charlie and I were!

Seeing LOTS of people reactivate their Fediverse (Mastodon, Frendica, PLeroma) accounts last night and this morning, maybe even one or two will migrate to #Hive? Not sure why everyone is jumping ship. TBH, Twitter already has your personal profile and preferences, and so what if he invites Trump et al. back? There are already more dangerous freaks on Twitter anyway!

Great! I place my order with @argon_forty for their EON NAS Drive enclosure and then two days later PiHut lists it. #LeSigh #raspberrypi
Still, I think there's only a three or four quid difference.

Letting go of the past is often hard for some people. Many will say, "It's what you make of the future that counts." I say it's what you make of today that's important.

It's so difficult to make positive posts when I'm surrounded by people who by their behaviour and attitude just make me want to scream out with negative responses. :devillish

I dreamt last night that I was living in Berlin, but it was a mishmash of modern-day and 1920s Berlin? That's not the weird part. I was speaking fluent French, and so were all the Berliners. O_o

Yep. It's incredible the rubbish the different midwives have told her. They came to our house Sunday, and I put Ethan almost at the top of the Moses basket. Monique went mad. "Don't do that! He has to go at the bottom, or there's a risk of cot death!" WTF? What a load of old rubbish, I said. Is he at risk if he lies in the middle too? Jeeze, they tell new mums some twaddle.
