Silver Ball Century is my stream series where I play through virtual pinball tables, chronologically, and it continues with 1977 tonight:

"mastodon federation isn't hard to understand, it's just like e-mail"

I've never clicked on an e-mail the wrong way and ended up looking at it through the sender's e-mail client, which I can't interact with, instead of my own

heck. got the name wrong of the conservative mayor who tried to destroy pinball. Fiorello LaGuardia.

[this actually happened to me, in 2019]

Cute girl: So. Before we proceed. How do you feel about Marx?
Me (nervous): Umm look I guess I'm a socialist but I don't really know enough about the political theory behind it
Her: ...
Me: I'm sorry
Her: ...
Her: Marks. Can I leave marks on your skin

Earthbound PK Scramble with a different pool of random settings than usual: https://twitch.tv/arborelia

The Walking Dead is the worst fucking pinball machine designed in the last 30 years

I think Enrico LaGuardia should come back from hell just to destroy every copy of that machine in particular. It would be thematically fitting

@ct_bergstrom I’ve been trying for over three years to get accountability from Google Scholar for the way they block trans academics’ name changes. They simply do not communicate.

@roncli so it's great that it exists in theory but I don't plan to post here in a way that would make a remotely usable RSS feed

@roncli the scope of a Cohost post is so different from a toot. I can't imagine wanting to follow mastodon via RSS

it's thanksgiv-DING, where we are thankful for virtual EM pinball tables! chat raffles pick the table. https://twitch.tv/arborelia

If you have an RSS reader and don't use Cohost, you can still follow my Cohost feed: https://arborelia.cohost.org/rss/public

okay this seems similar to turning off the "advanced Web interface"? one of those is under "Preferences" and one is under "App settings". what's the difference

I found Mastodon's "mobile interface" and I am enthusiastically using it on desktop.

It's good. It's familiar. It's Twitter-like if Twitter didn't waste a column on the hate crime of the day.

I do not need to see all my notifications all the time

oh hey I'm back

I'm primarily on https://cohost.org/arborelia but I need to have a mastodon feed to check too
