@smallcircles A metropolis; I was born in London, not far from the Docks, and my MastoNerds are all different people unlike the sausagemeat populace of Meta etc. There are quiet corners and bustling thoroughfares here for choosing where you are comfortable.

You know how Charles Shultz let us know that happiness is playing the drum in your own school band? It’s like that.

College dorm, freshman year.

Various freak flags are fully let fly, and there's a lot of "OMG you too? I thought I was the only one."

@smallcircles Fedi (feeee diiiiii) is coming like a ghost town. All the clubs have been closed down.

@smallcircles
I experience the Fediverse as a stimulating conversation by witty, engaged, interesting, and often atypical people.

@smallcircles Mine's gotten a bit *too* busy...so I've started muting the folks who never add alt text

[pattykimura@beige.party]

@smallcircles A strange fascinating party with lots of different pods with wildly different conversations or lectures or readings or music or gallery shows or cooking or comedies or what have you all going on, and everyone welcomes you in.

[cubeofcheese@mstdn.social]

@smallcircles agora. It's not where everyone is at, but it is concentrated and focused and where important discussion is happening

[oohokaykay@beige.party]

@smallcircles
A cozy village that has a too many idiots sometimes. But at least they're funny idiots.

[netraven@hear-me.social]

@smallcircles once you block mastodon.social, it's much better. Too many mental children who don't understand conversation and communication. Too many people still trying to pretend this is Twitter and trying to become "popular" by posting divisive, misleading, or completely fabricated information.

@smallcircles My social bubble. It's cozy village + my interests + a few foreign eccentrics.

[simon@gotosocial.grnwds.uk]

@smallcircles
Really odd party.

@OhMrBill @smallcircles

FOUND ONE!!

@darby3 in a good way, though? In an extracting-myself-from-the-ratrace casual walk kinda way perhaps?

[lkdc@dmv.community]

@smallcircles I experience it as a village that I can see is cozy for the people who truly belong in it, i.e., tech nerds with comfortable bank balances. For me, it's a nice place to visit, but it's slightly uncomfortable because many people just assume that everyone has the same access to tech and money. Too often, advice is given that would be helpful only to people who have high-speed internet, lots of gadgets, and disposable income.
