Seeing a mutual in the federated timeline is like seeing a teacher in own clothes on the weekend

@TheBreadmonkey I think that was the reason, all those years ago when we were Required to learn social media for work, that I rejected FB violently.
I had to follow friends and family! What rubbish is that! If I wanted to communicate with the people I know, I wouldn't be the stay at home hermit I am today.
@TheBreadmonkey In college, I saw two professors in casual wear grocery shopping and holding hands!
i can't attest to the veracity of this anecdote.
it was a long time ago.
something about a teacher in a vintage car using their hand to indicate, and an ex-pupil driving past, giving them a high-five, and injuring them.
that should be in the highway code.
i think this was at low speed with the teacher obviously stopped to turn right.
i can see how it would be tempting if you see someone you recognize with their hand out, to high-five it.
In the UK, for car hand signals (usually for broken indicators), you use your right arm: straight out for a right turn, straight out and making forward circles for a left turn, and out with palm down, moving up and down for slowing/stopping. These signals, from the Highway Code, are for emergencies when electrics fail, not for general use, but are essential for theory tests and safety if needed.

@TheBreadmonkey ewww. That's weirder than going for a skiing holiday including sauna with all your colleagues.
@TheBreadmonkey I once saw my math teacher at the beach. He was having a leisure stroll on the shoreline. Naked.
(I am from northern Germany, nudist beaches are not uncommon.)
@TheBreadmonkey Does the federated timeline even know about Caturday? I don’t think so.
@TheBreadmonkey
Having occasionally looked into the federated stream & come away with burned eyeballs …
I'm sorry, lost my thread because the federated timeline just spontaneously mutated for the n-th time in the last 50 seconds.
(Imagine a row of burned eyeball emojis here)
What about that shadowy place?
That's the Federated timeline. You must never go there.
who is mad enough to look in to the roiling abyss that is the federated feed
ahh, it's you

#Tusky, AFAICT, doesn't even make the federated timeline visible. This is as it should be.
Edit: the federated timeline isn't visible by default, but Ben has just shown me how to enable it.
Aargh! My eyes! 👀
@TheBreadmonkey Ben I think they own the clothes they wear to school, too. Or do teachers where you’re from wear robes and this is another situation where Hogwarts wasn’t doing a magical school thing, it was just a British school thing
@TheBreadmonkey The federated timeline scares me.
