  1. @stjaerna @juanrloaiza Right, somehow #histodon attains euphony whereas #philosodon and #philosodon sound like dinosaurs. The problem is that #philostodon conjures up "phlogiston." The meta-problem with all of them is etymologically the -sophy / -sophia root is more central to the meaning of #philosophy than is the phil- prefix, which as a suffix would just as easily apply to (say) cinephiles or anglophiles.
    #Sophiadon, though, has its own issues...

  5. Maker, improviser of music. Saxophone, unrecognizable. Electronics, non-human empathy. Computer, antagonistic virtuosity. Leave behinder of successes. Offerer of lots in exchange for little. Beauty, should one be so generous. Curiosity: Films, philosophy, lit'trature. Just being in a book store. Enemy and occasional victim of nostalgia. Aimless walker. Tour van humorist. Dry land laconic. Lover of cities, dreamer of emptiness #musodon #experimentalmusic #noiselife #filmdon #philosodon

  7. @MichelleLKahn @tkinias @torstenkathke @konrad @micahcarlson @histodons @rachelcleves @lakelady speaking from my (very) limited experience, PSCI needs historians more than they realize. I would love to be on a server with #histodon and #philosodon users!

  8. Philosophers here definitely need a proper Mastodon hashtag like #histodon and #mathstodon folks have. So far I've seen #philscidon, but not #philodon or #philosodon. Is there any such hashtag in other instances? If not, which one should we use?
