  1. @legallaurak @robotdeathsquad power just went out here in #CamasWA. Running #greenhouse (propane igniter and fan) and house pellet stove on generator. Rigged up internet and other small stuff on battery power (which can be recharged on solar power). Last Saturday power was out as well for ~13 hours. Still need to find a good solution for the 220v well pump.

    There’s some nice small generators to be had for essentials. Make sure you get an “inverter” generator to cleanly power electronics.

  2. So I had to go visit ... I have two accounts, one for legal/professional connections and one for my spare time work with exchange students and cultural exchange. My @legallaurak account is a reflection of what we can see in our timelines here with people repeating who's been suspended, saying they're done, etc. etc.. My other account though, was as though nothing has happened. People tweeting about #IntlEd and cultural exchange as usual. Two different worlds.

  3. My exchange student says the only thing he can say about #LaurenBoebert is that she is “special.” He is a polite young man and says he can’t use other words so this word is not a compliment.

    I think this kid will be just fine in our home.

  8. @patc Same here in SW PDX/NW Lake Oswego. Went to let the dogs out to do their business and it was "wait, what the ...?" It's 38 degrees!

  9. I'm working on finding #hostfamilies for #exchangestudents coming to the US this Fall for a semester or school year. (This is what I do when I'm not working on #climatechange or hanging out with my pups...)

    Know anyone who is interested in learning about other cultures and would be good with teens? Let me know! I'm in #Oregon but can refer folks to coordinators elsewhere in the US, too.

  14. @calecodes I think my dogs consider me the automatic feeder. If I walk into the kitchen there's a mad dog rush to follow me and stare at me with the same kind of sad dog eyes I think your pupper is using to convince her feeder to give her food.

  15. For folks on mstdn.social, here's just a sample of what your server admin has been doing to keep up with the thousands upon thousands of new additions to the neighborhood.

  16. @acosta Welcome to the Fediverse! Glad to see you here. Spend some time here, get to know the neighborhood — it’s different from The Other Place. I think you’ll like it once you get the lay of the land.

  17. Dear everyone -- Please support the admin of your instance. Go to Name of server/about to find out how your admin can accept donations.

    They don't get paid and the #TwitterMigration has increased the cost of hosting a server. Every time EM does something moronic, there's a sudden influx.

    Be kind, be patient. Your server may have another slowdown as we're all online and more people are signing up. Give your admin some time.

  18. @uwebrandenburg @eddiepwest @Pii @cheng_yien I agree with Uwe. I'm a lawyer and have a bunch of lawyer colleagues, I work on climate and have connections there, and I work with #internationalstudents so have that as well. I haven't had trouble connecting with people on different servers -- I feel that it's more a matter of getting the people who work in #intled to come over. A lot of the people I know are still hanging onto Twitter.

  19. @uwebrandenburg That's me as you know as we follow each other in the other place! Was actually having a conversation over there yesterday with a few #intled people who were asking about Mastodon. For whatever reason, that is a group that I am not yet finding here for the most part.

  20. Heading out shortly to have a heart-to-heart with one of the exchange students I supervise. Some issues are normal teen issues but he's refusing to change behavior, so that's an issue. A larger concern is his fascination with TikTok star Andrew Tate. (If you don't know who that is, thank your stars because he's horrible.) So, I have to figure out how to retrain a teen's thinking before his host family asks us to remove him.

  26. @Normdeplume I see your dogs like to drag blankets onto the floor and abandon them ... our pups must be talking to each other in the doggo-universe.

  27. @OldSquida2 My GSDs are nowhere near so careful with stuffed animals ... they do love indestructible toys like Kongs and deer antlers, doing their best to prove to us they can eventually break whatever it is into pieces. At least it takes awhile before they suceed! 😂
