At some point during the Dark Years, I realized that I had lost my sense of wonder. I came to see that wonder does not abide companionably alongside outrage. My (well-deserved) outrage had cost me my sense of wonder, and I was devastated. It has gradually returned, and I realized today that what I’m experiencing here is the full-on return of wonder. I’m absolutely reveling in it every day when I see and share art and photos and good-natured humor and community. Just wow. #Mastodon

Just discovered the hide boosts function. Wish I'd have looked for this before. Now I can be inspired by artists who post their beautiful work without having the mood killed and my opinion of them dragged down by some petty political post they've boosted.

Bah, the VPS running my private Mastodon instance ran out of disk space last night. After some attention everything seems to have come back online OK, but apologies if I've missed anything. Adding a cleanup job to cron to run nightly...

Maybe I'm an asshole, but I'll rip the entire set to MP3 rather than logging in to skip forward on a SoundCloud set. Sorry about it.
