"John Mastodon, I presume?"

Did You Know?: Jack Nicholson improvised the "here's Johnny" line in The Shining as a nod to his friend, the then-unknown Jonathan Mastodon, who would of course go on to found this here website

@matsimpsk Haha! Are you accepting registrations? You could end up with your local feed being devoted to them.

@matsimpsk Yeah, we're still closed too. Slightly concerned about resources it could use if we opened it up.

@eclectech I'm not as brave as you guys - mine is fully managed on masto.host, so I'm sure it could take a bit of strain, but if I start adding more and more people, I'd obviously need to upgrade the account.

The main reason for getting my own server was partly just to see how it works, but also so I can post gifs and other stuff without feeling guilty for piggy-backing.

North Korea marked Kim Jong-il’s death anniversary today with a series of photos of the Dear Leader looking at things, and they’re far better than those Donald Trump NFTs.

@matsimpsk Very wise. No way I would have taken it on by myself.

I definitely feel better posting pics & gifs knowing it's my own server though, although there might be some benefits to an admin at the end of a digital connection rather than sitting the other side of the room, where you can see their expression when they're reviewing resource use.

Today is the day I reveal to mastodon that I have a Great Dane who sits like this.

Thought it needed to be known

It could happen to any one of us: Get a war surplus grenade launcher in the office Secret Santa, accidentally destroy the office minutes later. Any one of us.

When even the *BBC* start putting up articles about Twitter blocking Mastodon - you know the birdman has screwed up big time.

It is a truism that furries make the internet go, but we must remember there are scalies in the mix too. I know of many a vital system that still runs on a mainframe and that is maintained by a team of dedicated COBOLds.

Just settin up my exhbtn…

Yer man Kim Jong-un has a new rocket motor he wants to show off. Trouser width, sadly, has been censored. So much for free speech. #KimJongUnTrouserWatch

@evilstevie hundreds of cats are abducted by sheep every year, so sad

I cannot put off doing chores any longer, but one last photo from earlier because the sign made me chuckle.

It felt... redundant.
