@NewEnglandite Ohhh, that'd be so interesting to get to compare! Especially since your grandparents lived both eras and hear how they see that time compared to how you saw it.
My grandma left in... 1941? when she was about 19 and she told me stories about the beginning of USSR and even the stories of the empire and revolution her parents had told her. I could never put a price on those.

@RaquelWillis Unfortunately yeah, but they're easy to switch between and you can import and export who you follow on the different instances (how to do that, I don't know yet. I did it manually). It's a bit tedious but you get used to it quickly.

@patcoet beautiful 💜

@velvetrose I get anxious if my tweets get even 50 RTs. The enabling of abuse is so bad there, ugh....

Continuing on #Introductions on this instance; here's what I look like. My own hair is white (at the moment), but wigs, hair dye and piercings here and there come and go depending on the season/week/day. I'm a certified hair stylist and love makeup. I'm NOT a makeup artist though, I just like doing my own face and collecting stuff. https://witches.town/media/0HUWCYE0HB3dTNC6Go4 https://witches.town/media/cWHiX82hZnM2HgybD9I https://witches.town/media/JYPdoQTUCMyVfGIFQBQ https://witches.town/media/ZrQ7bXY-gJ0Xd6Wqr2g

it's almost 10:30pm and i finALLY FINISHED CLEARING OUR CLOSET. that was way more work than i thought it'd be, whew.

@Shalena It's good to know I'm not alone 😂 I feel so old compared to everyone else who migrated from twitter this week because they seem to have mastodon all figured out already and i'm more "mmeh, i'll get it at some point" 😂😂

@Shalena Thank you, you're so sweet! I think it's mostly because I've been on twitter for so many years that everything else is just... different lmao

I'm still kinda confused on how this place works but I'm sure I'll figure it out at some point. Maybe. Hopefully. Definitely.

@lullabylamb Yeah, I'm hoping the stress will get released once I start baking and cooking, that always soothes me anyway so I'm counting on it working this time as well :D

@Dhveszak Thank you! 💜

@lullabylamb It's so close that's it's nearly 5% exciting and 95% stressful, but it'll be great! We're having a small-ish event, a bit under 50 guests.

#Introductions Oh yeah, I'm also dyslexic so excuse my possible typos and the possibility that I ask clarifications on what you're saying because I don't read that well.

@Agra That's alright, it's always good to ask if something's not clear!

If you want reading recommendations, I've been going through this list of books http://www.listmuse.com/best-anarchist-communist-socialist-books.php and while some are obviously better than others (as with every other genre of books) and disagreeing with the content is encouraged, they're an excellent base to form your own opinion on!

@Agra Hi and thank you! lmao those are EXCELLENT words to know and usually the first ones I teach to my non-Finn friends. And I'm communist in the sense that I think everyone should have livable wages (if they don't have a job, then unemployement support money), a home to live in, clothes on their back and food to eat no matter their social standing. I'm leaning towards marxism if we're talking about -isms but I really need to do some more reading on the subject before I can be 100% sure. Nice to meet you!
