I'm always surprised that other social media platforms need algorithms to get you addicted to them.

I'm addicted to Mastodon with no algorithm needed. Well done you weird, lovely, smart folks!

And today is a big day.

Today is day 1...

...of my third year on Mastodon.

Thanks @david@tech.lgbt and @ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt

A little bit of #nostalgia for your edification. Some gays out there are old enough to still remember hearing #Polari (West End dialect in Cardiff clubs for me) into the 90s amongst older gays.

In the current climate, everywhere, union membership is more important than ever.
Join your local tenants' union
Join your workplace union (if you don't have a unionised workplace, join a general workers union as they will still be able to support you)
Join your local credit union
