  @fesshole@mastodon.social This absolutely did not happen. I have never worked anywhere where the toilets weren't the most dogshit generic model available and the toilet paper wasn't so thin you could breathe right through it and you would tear a hole.

  One of the concepts I've noticed streamers and content creators on Twitch or YouTube struggle with is that when I tell them I'm on #Peertube or #Owncast, these aren't alternative platforms. These are my own self-hosted websites that I manage and maintain myself. These are *my* platforms.

  I vote Democratic (I'm not registered, but I vote pretty much party-line and have done so for decades). I know a *lot* of Democratic voters personally.
