Sam the Octopus @troubleMoney@computerfairi.es

@Concerned_Catgirl yes

In that "tsar" is a term used in British politics as "person in charge of this sort of stuff that doesn't count as a Ministry"

@vantablack "And quoth the Octopus: lol emacs"

@vantablack *glances at past toots/tweets/etc.*

Wow. I really hope I never become historically notable

@noelle @squirrel that place looks awesome!

I want to be in that place!

@squirrel pretty much all of them were good choices as far as I'm concerned

@NattyGov If you go into Settings > Data Export on .cloud you can download a csv of all the people you're following

Then on .social (or any other instance) you can go to Settings > Import to import the csv

@squirrel I'm now imagining that any time you walk into a room with maplebot(s) in it they'll stop whatever they're doing and run towards you beeping for a hug

@squirrel YOU'D BE MOMMY MAPLE!

@squirrel of course beeping the katamari theme while doing so

@squirrel morning, afternoon, whatever it is, timezones are hard

I want a maplebot to wake me up in the mornings by pawing at my face and beeping at me

That'd be adorable

@brokenfingers @TheGibson @KitRedgrave@glitch.social preferably after cooking it in a nice curry sauce

Watch the most recent @squirrel_chan's fuck up hour if you want to see @squirrel's reaction to the horror that is... ELF BOWLING

@squirrel I could see them being the must-have thing next christmas

Everyone loves a maple!

(apart from people who are wrong)

@Fenris we got the blobmojos, a fairly comprehensive set of gender and orientation flags, paws, various CRT monitors, and my personal favourite !

She's the mascot of the fediverse you know

@Fenris Hey, welcome

Hey @squirrel, where do I throw my money for the maplebot crowdfunding?

I've tried throwing it at the screen but nothing is happening

My sister does Know-Your-Customer stuff for a large company

Had dinner with her tonight and she said that one of her bosses had been grinning more than usual when giving her some files to check and everyone she phoned to check up on them with had been giggling

There was one common theme to the files and I couldn't stop giggling when I heard it

All the companies were based in Bielefeld

Yep, that joke's still going strong after 25 years
