Reminder to all who just set up a Mastodon account. Following accounts is the LAST order of business. The First order is to fill out your profile. The Second order of business is to write an #introduction that lets everyone know more about you than the profile itself. Put the hashtag #introduction in it and you're waving hello to millions of strangers who might just wave back. Know if yon't do these things, some folk, including me, might think you're a 'bot & won't approve your follow request.

#introduction as I'm new to this server. I'm in my early 40s. I'm a lesbian. I live in Spain. I'm a radical leftist and also an artist and so I spend my days creating art to help us connect. I want to build together and co-create. I want to connect and get to know others. I'm COVID-Concious and still masking. AuDHD nonbinary multicultural. Hablo español et je parle francais. I live with two cats that are the only royalty I support. On Mastodon I like to ask questions to get to know each other, share art, and be silly and brilliant together. My featured hashtags are Galactic Mermaids (because that's what I draw) and Galactic Questions (because that's what I ask) and collective care (because that's what I'm into). Here's my art and a photo of me. I hope to find community here. 😘

Hello ☀️ How are you today?
My name is Khaled, I’m 21, from Rafah, #Gaza, #Palestine.
#introduction
I’m here to share my everyday life as an IT engineering student in a war zone, and to make friends. If you’ve got questions about life in Gaza nowadays, ask me!
I’m looking to keep my family alive, so I’ll share my fundraising campaign regularly. Life is really difficult.
Please help me by sharing my posts as often as you can, and by donating if you can:

Hi folks. Permacommons is a new initiative to build shared resources with #AI assistance. We're starting with open source software and are hoping to expand into other domains in future.
If you give credence to the idea that AI is a potential job killer at a massive scale, we believe new approaches to building and sustaining our collective future are needed -- beyond basic income.
We've expanded on this a bit in our inaugural blog post:

Time for an #introduction!
Hello Fediverse!
I'm Some Guy, an #actuallyautistic human being who is passionate about supporting the #disability and #lgtbqia communities. While I frequently engage in #social and #political discussions, I'm here for fun and meet similarly minded people.
As a fair disclaimer: I may come across as raw, abrasive, rough around the edges, or outrageous. I communicate literally, am pathologically honest, and straight to the point. I also have an off the wall sense of humor.
Been on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse since 2022 and just switched from mastodon.social for a greatly increased character count. Huge shout-out to friend and genuinely awesome person @cobalt123 for the referral. All interactions with the beige.party folks have been great.

#introduction
Just moved to beige.party so time for an updated intro.
Hi, I’m Māris. I live in the Pacific NW (PNW) of the US, near Seattle, WA. I’m cis-het, married and we have a 23 year old son.
Retired from a 30+ year career in software. I’ve worked for defense contractors, but the bulk of my work was in commercial software. I started as a developer and finished my career as an executive leader for engineering and product management, at companies large and small.
Lots of reading these days, as I recover from an injury that’s kept me off my bike. Very slowly trying to restart; it will be a few months before I can get any real mileage going.
My musical taste is quirky. The Chemical Brothers, Morphine, Nils Frahm, Brian Eno, IDLES. No country. Jazz is good, as is Ambient and Techno.
Books, TVs and movies: spies, murders and sci-fi
Beverages: green tea, Negronis, Champagne, Burgundy, Pinot Noir, Spanish reds.
Photography: My favorite art form. Blowing the dust off my DSLR and just picked up a compact mirrorless to spend more time behind the camera.
Hello! 👋 It’s time for an updated #Introduction because I’ve just moved instances to beige.party (I was formerly @brianlavelle) - any boosts would be most welcome!

In no particular order, I quite like:
#ImprovisedMusic & #ExperimentalMusic
#FieldRecording
#Cats (I have two)
#TTRPG (I have too many)
#Tea
#Meditation
#Books #Poetry & #SpeculativeFiction
#Trees & #Walking (but not #WalkingTrees)
#Modernism & #Brutalism
#SelfHosting & #FOSS
#AltText & #PascalCase / #CamelCase
& lots more
