Sam the Octopus @troubleMoney@computerfairi.es

you know garlglemon has boosted one of your toots when the notifications start sounding like minimal techno

Does it have the same asset number? Then it's the same boat

As a note to our new tumblr friends, the fediverse is a primarily volunteer-run thing with the admins paying for all the server costs out of their own pockets

If you'd like to chip in towards keeping the fediverse running then most admins have patreon or kofi links somewhere that you can throw a couple of bucks at from time to time

@maple my name is sam the octopus and i do exactly the same thing

@daggers_drawn putting my mod hat on for a second, it's cool

if you think your toots are getting a bit long and you want to give people the option of seeing it all or not then feel free to put a CW tag on it with something descriptive

#introductions

Right, might as well get around to doing one of these with the new influx

I'm sam, I'm an octopus

I do some moderation stuff around here on computerfairi.es so if you need a hand with something then I might be able to help

I also make bad-to-middling toots and geek the fuck out about watches

@dizzy hey, welcome!

@KitRedgrave@cybre.space wormwood bitters is a thing some people use, maybe crib a recipe that uses that and mess around with replacing the bitters with malort?

@KitRedgrave@cybre.space if it's bitter like quinine then just put gin in it and call it good

assuming the tumblr exodus finds us well then the fediverse shall be filled with lewds and furries!

in other words, it'll be a monday

@sydneyfalk 🎶 You're so vain, you probably think this toot is about you 🎶

Wanna see what's in a watch?

Full disassembly of a Miyota and an ETA watch movement

fun game: try to guess if a toot is from @yubikeybot@masto.ninja or a girl who's just been called cute

"now kid, you have to go to bed early on christmas eve so you get the really good presents, if you go to sleep late then santa won't be able to get to you until later and you'll get the shit presents from the back of the sleigh"

this works on 100% of the children that have been told this

@Jo it's not doing that on tumblr though, that's not allowed any more

@Jo @maple lorge maple trampling around downtown tokyo saying "sorry, didn't see that skyscraper there"

@noelle @InspectorCaracal

@noelle I'm hearing the phrase "2 hour minimum"
