   @mekkaokereke 1) I would like to point out for the record that I never said so much as a word about gladiator 2 - not just because i suspected that it would suck, but ALSO because i haven't seen it.

   2) You gotta watch "Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". It's shockingly good, shlocky fun. Far, far better than you or I would ever have expected it to be.

   In fact, here's how sure I am that you will enjoy it (assuming you approach it from the "good shlocky fun" mindset and not the "high cinema" one): I will donate $20 to the charity of your choice if you don't think it earned at least 4 stars.

   Called home and the news isn't good. Doctors are saying "within the year" and "nothing we can do." My mom is a wreck. And I've too fucked up for a myriad of reasons to write to support her. Not out of money to do so yet, but if I don't get writing soon, I will be.

   In short: fuck cancer and fuck me for not being made of granite.

   @gbhnews A case to make for the business types, too - for an organization, having an instance with a domain name is the blue check of the Fediverse. Since you're on mastodon.social, you could be faking. Probably not, but you could be.

   In addition, you would have the sweet traffic metrics, directly, that your bean counters so earnestly desire. Having accounts per-show would segment your metrics appropriately. There's really all kinds of wins to be had here.

   We might imagine that Mastodon is safe because it cannot be acquired or controlled by any one entity, but it absolutely *can* be.

   In fact, with interest in it rising, Mastodon is at its *most* vulnerable time right now. Mastodon is in many respects an inadequate implementation. All any corporation has to do is launch a major ActivityPub implementation with the features and polish people want—enough to migrate people over en masse—and they will have effectively "acquired” Mastodon. (And honestly I suspect this is going to happen soon anyway.)

   Google destroyed RSS and XMPP this way. Yes, they’re still out there, but only shadows of their former selves.

   Matrix gives us the rare chance to head off this phenomenon before it happens.
