  2. #Abbreviationodon question...

    Are some folks using #commodon for "communication via Mastodon" while others are using it for "computer science on Mastodon"? Are some using it for "computational communication" crossover posts only? Or for academic "communication studies" on Mastodon?

    (Not to be confused with the maybe antiquated "Mass Comm," as the mass audience has become 21st century #individuated )

    Or are some folks just caught up in all of the excitement and misspelling #commotion?

    ;-)

  3. "Old Time Rock and Roll" is a song written by #GeorgeJackson and Thomas E. Jones III, with uncredited lyrics by #BobSeger. It was recorded by Seger for his tenth studio album #StrangerInTown. It was also released as a single in 1979. It is a sentimentalized look back at the music of #theOriginal #rocknRoll era and has often been referenced as Seger's favorite song. The song gained renewed popularity after being featured in the 1983 film #RiskyBusiness.

  4. Post-meeting road jam on a pleasant Monday evening; the third major rock concert I ever saw (the first being Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers with second The Kinks) in the spring of 1983 was Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band. They played for four friggen hours and when they launched into this one as one of the encore numbers, the crowd - including an 18 year-old me - went absolutely nuts.

  5. David Fincher – „Fight Club“ (1999)

    Ob Sie diesen Gewaltporno jetzt als Kultfilm feiern oder als fragwürdigen Kino-Exzess ablehnen, liegt ganz bei Ihnen. Regisseur Fincher war nie einer, der es uns im Kinosessel gemütlich machen wollte. Seit den 90ern ist er vielleicht etwas weniger kontrovers unterwegs. Als Chronik der Befindlichkeit der USA sind seine Filme bis heute relevant. (ZDF)

  6. @JaneHadley What do you want to read about or plan to write about? The theory is that an #introduction page or two with those topics as hashtagged keywords will lead folks to you. So far, I'm not finding much regional #journalism in #BlueRidge #Appalachia where I live, but a little about #fiddling, #banjos, #mandolins, #oldtimemusic, #oldtimeradio and other things I'm interested in.

  7. Swiss commentator at the winter olympics just dragging the Israeli bobsled team for filth. Turns out one of them was actively involved in military operations in Gaza recently.

    There's of course rules against active duty soldiers suspected of war crimes playing in the games but the commentator notes those rules were primarily enforced against Russian athletes.

  9. Most satisfying thing about Mastadon is that the day after I arrived they added an "edit" button on that three-dot menu under my posts. I don't write as much as I edit myself. #editor #copyeditor #subeditor #stylebook #typos

    De Nederlandse Ski Vereniging (NSkiV) moet het in de komende vier jaar met fors minder budget doen voor de snowboarders en de paraskiërs en parasnowboarders. Dat staat in de verdeling van de budgetten voor de olympische cyclus 2026-2030 door NOC*NSF. Bobsleeën en curling krijgen juist meer...

  11. #TIL that one of my favorite “roller coasters” The Screamin’ Delta Demon at Opryland USA, had its sign designed by Frank Frazetta.

  12. I watched this flick last night for the first time in awhile - I’d forgotten the Brad Pitt character (Cliff Booth) was cruising home in that ‘68 Cadillac Coupe de Ville with this tune among those on the car’s radio.

  13. My dad’s funeral is tomorrow and I’m at that point in the grief process (I know I’ll be here again as it tends to pop up nearly 20 years after the loss of my oldest son, Ryan) where some favorite tuneage helps. In this case, it’s Bob.

  14. Wondering why I still haven't seen much Mastodon presence from students or faculty at #VirginiaTech (#VT) in #Blacksburg.

    What comes first, an instance or some issues? Or university administration leadership?

    The university administration maintains numerous Twitter accounts with thousands of followers, not counting all the #Hokie sports sites.

  15. @itsdanw I wasn't sure whether #WoodrowInstruments were some kind of scientific apparatus, but went looking, found thewoodrow.com/
    Do you play one?
    Reminds me of a N.C. fellow I met who made banjos with dulcimer-fretted fingerboards: angelfire.com/nc2/dulcijo/

    I'm in #Radford, playing mostly #mandolin in jam sessions in #Blacksburg and #Floyd -- where I combine music with relatively short hikes in the #RockyKnob and Smart View areas along the #BlueRidgeParkway
    Happy Mastodon exploring!
