I made myself a “Mastodon” account a while back (@dtw). Since then I’ve ActivityPub enabled my website (@rubyquartglassess@rubyquartzglasses.me.uk) (yeah, I need to shorten that).

Now, I want to start using . I can create “Pixelfed” account from scratch, or by “authenticating” with one of my existing accounts, right? However, I think, anyone can follow my @dtw or @rubyquartglassess@rubyquartzglasses.me.uk feed from pixelfed anyway… so, I don’t need an account on a pixelfed server?

And then I wonder, if any fedi app can read any ActivityPub feed, why are there different apps?

Pretty much speechless at the damage caused by to the countryside in Buckinghamshire. I don’t even live there and it’s heart breaking.

Still, we had to find some way of getting the money out of the public coffers and into someone’s pockets. God knows we couldn’t just spend it on people that need it.

It’s fucked to hear one idiot’s words
But worse to see others believe it
Fucked up minds in fucked up times
It’s up to you to foresee it

Never though the metal I loved when I was kid would still be relevant today…

Read Elon Musk appears to make back-to-back fascist salutes at inauguration rally by Martin Pengelly

Waking up to videos of Elon Musk doing Nazi salutes on the podium at a US presidential inauguration; what a way to start the day!

I saw the stills, I thought “Nah, that’s been taken out of context.” Then I saw the video and an actual feeling of dread settled in my stomach.

It doesn’t even matter if it was really just a deliberately provocative prank.
