@Omega_Molecule I've actually never tried mastodon.social, it was locked down when I joined, now it's invite only, do you have invites? I might like to take a look.

@akuchling that's exciting, didn't even know this was happening now. Trying to find out when it's due to land.

Although I gotta say, as a businessman, turning the tables on your adversaries by taking human form and becoming president of the company that creates the universe you all were created from is a pretty clever move. Profitable too.

So Nintendo should just run with this and make a new version of Mario World: CEO Smashdown where Mario and Luigi try to get through various Nintendo buildings to defeat Pres. Bowser and release the Princess from her ridiculous NDA and non-compete agreements.

Mastodon usage question:
How many instances are you involved in?
Do you use the same id everywhere?
What are one or two great communities worth joining?

Long ago, when the galaxy was young, I joined several other worlds in the federation (snarl). Now I only remain active here and one other place (undercover though).
But I'm a people person, there aren't enough suckers, I mean fascinating people, to interact with here. And whenever I end up on Birdsite I get down.
So suggestions are welcome.

@Ricardus It's not that I LIKE it...it's that it's a fixed point in my psyche. If you watched TNG in highschool, that season cliffhanger was the worst/best cliffhanger for any show ever. And Locutus was just so cool. But I think a lot of is attachment to the moment when we first saw it, there are better Borg episodes later on.

@sorreltyree ...maybe? something about trying to divide themselves off into their own entity feels like a big old carpetbag folding in on itself. Maybe it's just me.

@ChrisTalleras highlights?

@sorreltyree In both senses...

@Morn OK you're cut off.

@emsenn we don't talk about that one

@chucker @djsumdog well I think they'll access it a lot less now knowing the true impact and risks.

@ASIC I'm not in to all that retro stuff, I prefer music projected straight into my ears with holofield projection as mature intended.

@Morn you know you're saying all that out loud right?

@djsumdog ah, good to know, watched a few but never got into the Orville.

@vegetablegremlin @Lexi waaat? I must have blocked that out.

@djsumdog I think we're getting eleventy more series so maybe one of those will fill your need, I hope so, I DO want to see what happens "next". But I love all those other shows too and I find Disco just so much more mature in how they deal with human relationships and power struggles, it's amazing, beyond anything star trek has ever done. I can get over a bit of campiness, when that is basically the only campy thing in the series.

@lynnesbian are you...a time traveller?

@vegetablegremlin @Lexi that makes it sound better actually
