The real danger from engaging in any discussion of writing semantics is that, if you thought grammar police were tough, just wait until you encounter *punctuation* police. "Quotation marks go OUTSIDE the punctuation" only works if, like you and me, we're American.

Because reasons. 😆

Ha - you went there :)

I can still look out the window this morning and enjoy the beauty of it. That gets harder to do by the end of February :)

My time on the bird site was similar. I'm not so different on social media than I am IRL - stand near the wall, watch what's happening, try to find somebody who appears friendly, get up my nerve, and engage. It's harder to do when there are ten thousand people in the room 🙂

Mastodon isn't devoid of spammers, but they're easy to spot. Especially in those communities that I tend to focus on.

Unlike IG, where I somehow have 450 followers and have never once posted anything.

To be fair, I haven't actually done much of anything here yet. Happily lurking...😀
