@elliot @gavin @Kalias fwiw I use the Toot! app on iOS and it is quite good- All the image/video accessibility and CW options in-app, multi-server support, it's worth it. Dunno about Android https://apps.apple.com/us/app/toot/id1229021451

As the first post and media upload on the new instance I'll use this graphic NJPW made for American fans. I hope we, too, can cheer the wrestlers from our seats.

I feel my English skills are improving. I could order a butter croissant heated up at Starbucks! By the way, croissant is called KUROWASSAN in Japan.🥐

Yesterday my French tutor said that when I speak in English I have an accent she hasn’t heard before and when I asked her if maybe it was Californian she thought for a second and then shook her head and said “no, it’s gay.”

A child at Robb Elementary repeatedly called 911 during the hour the gunman was inside, per press briefing just now. Gunshots could be heard over the line. "Please send the police now," the child asked.
