HEY, peeps who use a cross-poster for Twitter -> Mastodon, that adds CW, which one is it?
This #LibrePlanet talk on #ActivityPub by @cwebber is very very good. I hugely admire Chris as a person and respect all the work he has put in to #MediaGoblin and AP over the years.

(He's also an enthusiastic speaker with a great sense of humor)
First of the #DadJokeDay dad jokes, and I make no apologies for how bad these are!

I've been under for a while, is there a FOSS Skype/Telegram replacement that's superior to Matrix these days?

We have currently silenced the Switter.at instance and do not load their media.
You are still able to follow and talk with users on the Switter instance, but their posts and media will not appear in the public timelines for our users.
We apologize for any inconvenience this causes, and do we wish Switter all the best with their instance. We're happy to see the fediverse grow.

Do you ever read biographies? I've read four (but three of them were about the same dude, so I'm not sure if that counts.)
What biographies did you love? What people are worth learning about?
Is it worth learning about your heroes failures? Humanizing them, and demonstrating their flaws?

This sweet, sleepy boy held my hand for a while tonight.
Can anyone tell me where to find the icon set #Mastodon uses?
(e.g. the timeline buttons, privacy settings, etc)
@purplePaws For a variety of body types and interesting poses I really like Croquis Cafe's image archive: http://www.onairvideo.com/photo-archive.html
Bodies in Motion has a lot of acrobatic/gymnastic poses, yeah, but a lot of other variety of action-y poses as well: https://www.bodiesinmotion.photo/
The photographic Height/Weight chart gives a lot of examples of body types at various height/weights: http://www.height-weight-chart.com/heightweight.html
And the Humanae tumblr is a fantastic resource of different faces! http://humanae.tumblr.com/random
(That link will give you a random face every time you click it, or you can go to the main blog and just scroll through at your leisure.)
Hope this helps! :)
Happy Cyber Monday. As is traditional, brandish your floppies and hack the Gibson today.
shawl process, i started this two days ago and experimenting with really loose tension so i can make the most of the yarn weight and also make it airy (and thus, warmer)
the color is a lot warmer and more brown in real life, i think this is the prettiest yarn i’ve gotten my hands on as of yet *__*

Happy Black Friday. As is traditional, wear hooded black robes and listen only to Norwegian black metal music today.
