If there are any comedians out there who would like to throw this teacher a bone and give me some ideas I can share with my students, it would be so, so appreciated! I'm teaching a section on standup for my public speaking class, and I could use some ideas to share with my students about how to create a short set, writing, working with the audience, anything really. Boosts appreciated!! #comedy #comedian #standup

@lfm_blue @youronlyone loving all the female energy. 🥰

Glad we’re turning off lights and buying electric cars so a bunch of venture capitalists can get rich off of ai.

So confused when I run across a toot that is promoting AI when mastodon is pretty clearly anti-AI. Did they not get the message or what is happening here??

@dalias mine came through usps, and it wasn’t delivered to the correct address anyway. That’s on them imo.

Life tip: every once in a while tell amazon you didn't receive your package. You'll get a refund. It's the least you can do.

If you feel like someone’s post isn’t for you, you can just not comment on it. That’s always an option.

If you've never been poor, you have zero right to judge other people's financial decisions.

Are there any experts out there who can speak to whether protests have any positive affect of any kind. Really interested in the evidence one way or another.

If you're using AI images in your business that's a definite no for me. I'm sure there are a lot of people who don't understand the problematic nature of AI, but we're responsible for the content we use even if it's just an image in our presentations.

Now that I only follow about two people I haven’t muted because they are being inconsiderate with their political posts, I need more people to follow! Any recommendations?

Because I live in a tiny house, it’s necessary to make use of every inch of space. For example, the space underneath the stairs makes a nice cat cubby for storing your cats. #CatsOfMastodon #TinyLiving

So it turns out I really don’t like living in a community. The hard part about community is that it’s made up of people.

@dalias I don’t live in a standard house, but rather a tiny house, so no drains in the floor for that reason. When I did own a townhouse, there was a drain in the laundry room. It’s fairly common where I grew up in the Midwest.

My washer wasn’t draining, so I did the thing my brain was telling me was a very bad idea, and I pulled the drain to see what would happen. What happened was exactly what one would expect when you open a drain on something that is holding water. I stood there watching water gush out onto my floor paralyzed by thoughts of how I was going to clean this up. The happy ending is that the flood spat out all the cat hair that had been clogging it for so long. Cleaning up wasn’t fun though.

@FromTheRostra My doctoral research on trauma indicates and if you are not concerned about care for others then you are actively or passively contributing to the traumatization of others.

@sand thank you. This is the one I already downloaded. It’s quite complicated but maybe I’ll pick it up slowly over time.

@sand good question. I want to design my own characters, which I do in another app, to add to text to and then make t-shirts. Canva was great for the last two parts, but I dislike their business practices.
