New month, new game!
In November we're going to play One Must Fall 2097 by Diversions Entertainment.
Will it hold up to the quality robot fighting that Rise of the Robots was? (wink wink nudge nudge)
Discuss the game with us - either here, on our forums over at dosgameclub.com or on our IRC (afternet/#dosgameclub)

I don't know how useful this will be, but I've compiled a quick start guide, with lots of screenshots, aimed at #humanities #academics who are #NewToMastodon, trying to cover some of the things I see people most frequently getting stuck on in some less technical language than existing documentation.
I've put it on #HumanitiesCommons open for edits and comments so that other folks can help fill out things like useful hashtags.

I’ve been hosting #jinglebooks on #bookstagram for a few years now. These days it’s mostly me #reading and sharing all my favorite #christmas #books. (I also try to find and read new releases for holidays too!) so as a mastodon exclusive (is that a thing???), I thought I’d share my curated collection of #newbooks I’m reading this year!!!
Are any of these on your TBR?? Let’s read them together! Look for reviews coming soon! Also share your book recs with me!
Small is good, small is all, the large is a reflection of the small.
Many of the major technological and cultural innovations of the last several hundred years have served to flatten the world, eliminate or obviate distance, and bring us closer together as people. Printing, transportation, telephone, radio, television, home video, and the internet have each, in their own way, made our impact on the world bigger, and made parts of the world smaller.
But this came at a price.

Technology is not a net good, or even a neutral force. Technology is a Force Multiplier. It reshapes the world to fit the vision of those who design it, regulate it, and wield it. Oil companies poison our lakes and rivers, slowly boiling our planet. Facebook tracks everything we do online and uses that data to make us miserable. Disney owns an outsized portion of modern folklore. The FCC decides who gets to launch a radio station, and under what circumstances. Television turns reasonable people in to rabid fans of raving monsters, and turns raving monsters in to celebrities, politicians and thought leaders.
It does not have to be this way.

Is there something I'm missing about Trunk [1]? I posted on Cohost that it was an interesting approach to discovery - opt-in by category with no automation, just "here's a list of people who think you might find them interesting based on this topic" - and I got an *extremely* strong negative response.
What gives?
