@freemo To be clear, those of you picking the first option are saying shit like this is cute 😆

Yeah, this is insane.

In #Florida, you now need to visit a doctor and get a license to smoke weed.

But you can carry a gun with no state requirements whatsoever.

I feel much less safe living here now.

Lunacy.

@thatguyoverthere You've still missed the point. I was agreeing with what you said, not arguing against it.

@thatguyoverthere Yes, that was my point.

@thatguyoverthere And SCOTUS recently confirmed this, regarding the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas shooting: "An official has a duty to protect individuals from harm by third parties only when the individuals are in the official’s custody."

I made the transition to #Mastodon the day Elon closed his deal. Looking back, the difference is surreal.

On Twitter, my feed was full of political trolls pushing my buttons and pissing me off and making me question my faith in humanity.

On Mastodon, I get to read opinions from many of the same people I respected over there... but also I get brief, random windows into subcommunities like #Mosstodon, which is a delightful group of nature weirdoes and scientists posting pictures of moss they see out in the wild. It's so wholesome and positive that it restores my faith in humanity.
