Hey folks, even if you're not planning on using Mastodon instantly, you should take some time this week to create an account and set up your follows.

I do my 9-5 job, then head out at 7 till 10/11ish. I don't take big risks, don't get up in the polices face unless there is a cry for white shields and never damage property.
