"When it comes to individual decisions, masks are among the most low-cost and most effective steps that can be taken to broadly reduce transmission of a multitude of viruses."

As my personal call to wear #masks in order to protect yourself and others and to battle the #Covid pandemic, I've changed my profile pic to show my favourite mask.

It's a Draeger X-plore 1930 (FFP3). This mask comes in two sizes. Could be a bit cheaper, though.

For me at least, getting onto @Mastodon and appreciating the structure of the platform and the tone of conversation has made these other pop-up social networks (Twitter replacements) totally unattractive. No, I don’t want to move up on a wait list by β€œreferring 5 friends”; no, I don’t want to be part of another Jack Dorsey project; no, I don’t want to be part of something with weird completely top-down control. Mastodon broke me for other platforms.

This pic gives me goosebumps!

Wish I knew who the photographer is.

@bkm I see your Beer Store...and I raise you...The Most Awesome Booze Store Name EVER:

Me, *sobbing*: Can we please not do this now, during Honda's Biggest Sale of the Year?

As this festive time approaches, this note is for those who are by themselves, reminding them it's Ok to be alone. Celebrate your solitary time! You're the one who can make you eternally happy. From my side, by myself in my winter wonderland, I'm creating & sending joy to you.

I’ve done a ton of baking in my life, but mostly cakes and breads. I’m even decent with decorating. Decided to try my hand at royal iced cookies today.
Absolutely get why professionals charge $4/cookie now. To hell with that shit! Never again.

Hi everyone. When I travel, I need a cat sitter for my cat "Gestern". A grumpy old lady who is deaf and blind.
I have friends who can step in, but I prefer to offer other people the opportunity to stay in my apartment for free in return to care for her.
It's a 3 room apartment (bedroom, living room, office) + kitchen and bathroom in central Kiel, Germany.
There is a 140cm bed, a 1 person guest bed, and a couch.

Time: Mid January until beginning of February.
Feel free to message me.

This is Scooter. She was supposed to be a rescue, instead she moved in, took over the house, changed the locks and passwords on everything, and tells us we can stay as long as we're obedient and well-behaved.

On the 6th day of πŸ”’ed on twitter… my true love gave to me… a Mastodon account where I don’t need a keyyyyy… 🎼🎢

A puppy was abandoned at an airport. Then a United pilot adopted him. wapo.st/3BWZf3B

"It is a low-effort, live-action adult cartoon. It’s not supposed to make sense. Would you overanalyze Bugs Bunny in viking warrior opera drag or question Wile E. Coyote’s curious, unfettered access to industrial-strength explosives?"

Sorting through holiday ribbons like so much sturm und drang.

As you gather with friends or loved ones, or just take time for yourself over the coming days, take a quiet moment to remember the real reason for the season:

John Mastodon.
