From the needlessly redundant department of duplication: I'm queer.

One of the things that I LOVE about the fediverse is seeing people engaging that I didn't know knew each other. I guess they discovered each other through mutuals?

I initially followed Amy because of her pottery and she's also a really cool human. How does she know Isaac? Wait, she knows Steve too?

My BFF follows Kurt and also Jon? How do they know each other? Wait, Jonobie interviewed Jon when working on her masters in therapy!?

And the whole queer fedi is next level.

Love this place. 🥰

All this talk of "starter packs" (as if we're handing out AOL CDs something?) has me making a list of people I follow who post or boost things interesting to me to share in a day or two.

It reminds me back when blogs had lists of other related / interesting blogs. Because isn't that how we find community in real life? We find a friend and they introduce us to their friends or their fandoms or what they're loving at the moment.

Let's share our friends, not AOL CDs.

Just a little stroll on the beach.

When you just want to say "fuck it" to literally everything.

If you like NASA and design / typography you'll probably love this NYT article talking about the "worm" and "meatball" logos. Don't miss a lot of great links that go to other fun NASA design articles! Bonus: lots of great NASA photos scattered throughout the article!
