I'm the administrator of this server. https://tinysubversions.com is where most of my stuff lives. I make Hometown along with a bunch of other fediverse software (see pinned posts). I'm trying to fix the internet, and some people say I'm at least kind of succeeding. Based in Portland, Oregon, USA. he/him

I regret to inform you that the genders have been compromised.

A little piece of personal internet history. I found an old blog post from a friend in Dec 2009 about how bloggers are moving to Twitter.

> It seems that change is in the air at the moment, as a huge number of people are reassessing their relationships with their blogs this winter. [...] In some respects, a lively blog might be [...] a five year mission, at most. However, I also suspect that it is Twitter which is causing a lot of the reconsideration right now"

I think this new chart would be helpful, and if you'll take a look with me maybe we can figure out modifications that will specifically make your life easier every day"

But ultimately I respect and value all regional döner variations

Was reminded of my old bot that generated random titles and covers for the Verso Radical Thinkers series. This was a pretty good one
