Hello people of the Fediverse! Some of you may have heard that a new Mastodon client, Ivory, is in development for iOS (and Mac!). This is true! Tapbots is going all in on Mastodon and we hope this place continues to grow and thrive. Tweetbot will continue to be developed alongside Ivory as a lot of code is shared. A new Mac version of Tweetbot and Ivory are also currently in development and we are working hard on getting those towards a public beta state.

"Here is a rifle. Go fight the army of your own countryfolks trying to liberate you from our occupation."
Sure. That won't have any undesired consequences. /s
The Respect for Marriage Act was passed by the Senate today. It is, in so many ways, an imperfect bill. It is also going to protect millions of LGBTQ families, and Iβm grateful to Senator Tammy Baldwin for leading on it.

New server means new #introduction.
Hi all! I'm a journalist who covers hate and extremism in the US at a publication I launched called The Informant.
I began my career almost 20 years ago at a local newspaper in Arizona and later worked on staff at Talking Points Memo and the Southern Poverty Law Center. I've also freelanced a lot.
I enjoy art and graffiti. I was recently diagnosed with #LongCovid, which has drastically changed my life. But I'm still here.
Please feel free to say hi.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
