So far I have encouraged most of my family to get up to date on their vaccinations. Only two close relatives need to make appointments.
Today Summer's pal got his shot.
Summer gets caught up on her shots in October.
While I was talking to my daughter about this important topic she asked if I encouraged my Mastodon friends to stay vaccinated like I do the people around me in real life. I told her that I just tell people what we do not what they should do.
She sees interactions on social media as influencing and Summer photos as content.
I said no way.
Influencers are expecting a return on engagement and Summer is so much more to me than content. She gave a look like I might be a deluded old person. Maybe I don't understand how things really work but I know that I don't expect anything back from my friends here except hoping that we bring a smile now and then.
The newest towel is finished.
Peace friends.

@NorcalGma2@sfba.social You might influence people without being an "influencer" who has expectations. People see what you're doing and think "Oh, I should do that, too" without you telling them what to do. That's just fine, I think! Also, what a great towel design!
