     @shantini Heh, ask me again when it’s not the last week of the semester.

     At least the students kicked butt with their software projects. My life may be an inbox for the next week, but at least it’s an inbox full of goodness!

     @bgrinter Congrats / sorry? As an Aussie hearing about HOAs for the first time, you might get the impression that they’re kind of awful — but as someone who lives in the US, I want to assure you that they’re much, much worse than you’d think.

     I’m not sad or mad, I’m glad I have had this place to find my friends after Twitter burned down. But i would never call this a content platform. It’s a glorified email service.

     Want to also thank @mekkaokereke for the phrase “HOA racism.” That’s completely what it is.

     Then there’s just…I can’t be myself in this space. I can’t say anything that is not specifically intended for the white male gaze. There’s no hot girl shit on here because it would make all the dudes too horny or too uncomfortable. And you know what; that’s incel haven vibes.

     You gotta ask yourself - who are the people who don’t want quote toots? Who is that protecting? It’s white dudes who don’t want to be called out for gross opinions.

     Sometimes you stumble onto a good thing by accident and it helps you realize how much you hate another thing. Well, with my whole chest, I hate mastodon.

     There’s the fact that marginalized people are frequently censored in some perversion of moderation. Then the fact that if you don’t follow the “culture” you’re ostracized. Then there’s the horrible ergonomics of conversation, coupled with horrible content discovery (stfu about tags).
