RE: @ceejbot@toot.cat

Writing a cover letter yesterday, I got a brain-bolt to end a paragraph with “Ask me sometime to tell you about how I once [X]ed a [Y] using [Z].” This felt very good and right and I don't expect to get a callback from this one, but I do intend to keep doing this sort of thing.

RE: @mogwai_poet@mastodon.social

Good observation here that I’ve long held but never really put to words: game mechanics developed in the 1990s feel, in retrospect, right at home given the largely symbolic and cartoony (in a positive sense) visuals of games of that day, and they do feel like something else now. I guess how they feel is now is “videogamey" instead of “jaw-droppingly realistic” or whatnot.

I just mailed out a short stack of envelopes containing new Masto.NYC donors' sticker packs (https://masto.nyc/stickers).

I’m very aware that one has to be very choosy about one's charitable giving these days. A donation to your Mastodon server not only helps pay its bills—it sends such a strong statement about how much this service means to you.

It's an incredible and humbling morale boost during strange times. Thank you. #MastoNYC #MastoAdmin

An array of Masto.NYC stickers featuring @warren@masto.nyc, our server's mascot, as deployed around the @jmac@masto.nyc household!

I will personally mail you your very own four-sticker set if you visit https://masto.nyc/give and become a monthly supporter of $5 or more! Just DM me a mailing address (or email it to help@masto.nyc) after you do.

Masto.NYC is run by a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit; all contributions are tax-deductible where allowed by law. :warren_liberty: #NYC #MastoNYC #Stickers
