I'm very good at sleeping, it's the job I was born for.

Elenna? She's a queer

Duck Haus? He's a duck who lives in a haus

I have two jobs: working in tech and being gay. one pays a lot better but the other has job security!

[slowly looks at his instance name and back to your post] 😆

“Prodromou (Greek: Προδρόμου) is a Greek surname. It is the genitive form of prodromos (Greek: πρόδρομος), which means forerunner. ”

I have been ruminating on that problem for weeks. I've noticed some timelines that already seem to reflect reflect a parochial clustering. I suppose it's to be expected in this early Fedi stage, but I feel we may be underestimating the positive impact of that melting pot/blender effect that Twitter could had. But I think we can evolve beyond it with tools we haven't thought of yet.

my weird irl last name means "little thumb", so perhaps "mastodon gamedev place" is an improvement in some ways, as I believe my thumbs to be at least average in most respects

I'm a Free Radical. That is, extremely pretentious.

@shoq I have no idea what either of those things are, but I’ll take your word for it. :)

to be honest Infosec related instances are pretty much the only ones I can think of that fit this mold. Most of the others that I am aware of, including the one that I’m on, I focused on people’s hobbies, and there I say it passions. I like to think of it as “my work is my work, but fussing around with old computers is where my heart is”

FWIW I'm not actually a Mastodon 😉

Mine is a deception: I'm no deacon but vicar.

@brion Leave the trolling to the trolls.

I love the replies! 😂

solient@grumble.social? She complains a lot! 🤪

I'm a person wot makes games so yeah this tracks

I’m not mindly or social lol. The nerd instance had too many posts that weren’t in English that it was hard for me to use that community. I actually didn’t even look for a “scientist” instance. I use social media to get away from thinking 😊

I would like to make it clear that I am not in fact an AI.

@sabik hachyderm? coughs a lot and has excellent skin!

pretty much why I did self.social instead of a regional or subject area instance...

I am in fact an iOS developer so I think you’re onto something here

Ain't nothin' but a party

just for that lol I might start my own instance on Boglewidget.com

I guess I'm an amphibian now.

That's fine.

*Looks at the mastadon at the cubicle next to me. He looks back and shrugs.*

And I make things. 👍

alcinnz@floss.social creates Free/Libre OpenSource Software.

hilljam at mastodon dot social? he’s a mastodonist

I chose geographic location. Federation still means I can hang out with anyone 😍😁

I don't make sandwiches professionally.

Then I am exceedingly happy with my choice of server! I love it - and now I won't be able to unsee adorable little Mastodon medieval villages!!

I can live with people thinking I'm a kosmonaut.

me @pirateparty? I'm a #Pirate

I’m a proud member of the Question Others to Teach Ourselves brigade.

And us mstdn.social people are just here to make friends and read cool stuff. 😃

That's why I'm on sauropods.win!
