       Today I told my daughter that way back when I had high hopes that the advent of the Internet would be a good thing. We would all have information at our fingertips and humans would use their powers for good.Well, I was spectacularly wrong.It didn't really take very long to go sideways.I never felt a hankering to join any of the famous social media giants. Somehow, on the advice from grandkids, I ended up here. Mastodon is different. Thank goodness. There is real helpful information here just for the asking.Kindness and acceptance abound.I am more thankful than my words can describe.So when you toot that photo of your pet, garden, hobby or whatever makes you happy. It probably makes someone like me smile too. Mastodon is an unexpected and much appreciated bridge between people of goodwill.Summer says dogs and cats of goodwill too. Can't forget Summer. Lots of love to our Mastodon friends.A winter rose from our garden.

       @NorcalGma2 To me, Mastodon feels a lot like the "old internet" - and I really like it for that.
