@letthewatersroar@toot.cafe I think it was something to do with twitter doing something they didn't like and then a bunch of them decided "screw this I'm going to mastodon" and it went from there

could well be wrong though, the full extent of my spanish is "sangria", "chorizo", and "siesta"

@letthewatersroar@toot.cafe from what I can tell spanish twitter made their way over here and they haven't quite got the hang of the rules yet

@maple soooo, their first response to a complaint about a bot they run was to block the person making the complaint?

wow

@maple a lert

bloop

Theory:

The EmDrive thing actually works really well and there's a bunch of interstellar aliens sat around laughing about how humanity has used microwaves for no more than making dinner for decades

octopus believes in you!

@maple it's @everyone but by text message

I think FEMA (the emergency preparedness/recovery agency they have) just went "oh shit, we'd better test this system we spent a vast amount of cash on" and only got around to it now

@maple probably not but that's never stopped anyone else running it :V

Which idiot came up with the idea of a "presidential alert" system

Surely, no matter who is president, half the population's only response to anything sent that way would be "fuck them"

Limit it to emergency broadcasts and don't make any mention of the president and people might actually read the damn thing

@maple witchy maple!

hedgie hotel progress:

@ajroach42 Repo! The Genetic Opera

@Nine I'm sure the eldritch horrors that commissioned this have their reasons
