A boy stands in awe beneath a towering dandelion against a starry night sky. The scene combines elements of whimsy and wonder. Surrealism and dreamlike image. A giant, luminous dandelion seed head drifts through a twilight sky filled with swirling nebulae and distant galaxies. Tiny, silhouetted figures can be seen clinging to the seeds. A highly detailed illustration. The ethereal glow of the dandelion illuminates the cosmic scene. A sense of wonder and vastness. THE FINE ART AMERICA LOGO WILL NOT APPEAR ON PURCHASED PRINTS OR PRODUCTS.

Calico Bubble Bliss by Lisa S. Baker A relaxed calico cat rests in a vintage tub surrounded by soft bubbles and blooming florals, set against a backdrop of warm pinks, creams, and subtle gold accents. The composition blends delicate botanical elements with a cozy, spa-like atmosphere, while painterly textures and gentle color transitions create a soothing, dreamlike quality. The cats calm expression adds a sense of comfort and quiet indulgence to the scene.

Does anyone know of any software that runs on its own (like Fedifetcher) and does the following:
- connects to your Fediverse account
- gets your list of followers and those you follow
- finds out when they last posted something
- removes them if it was more than a certain number of days ago.

If there isn't, I might write my own.

RE: https://loops.video/v/ePoj4Ji--p

Why did the right wing win the #socialmedia popularity wars?

My theory is simple: The basic skill to succeed in an authoritarian system, is to figure out what the ruler likes.

The right wing has much more authoritarians than the left (at least here in the West), and with the new automated ruler computer of the #algorithm in place, these skills dominated.

The incentives of #bigtech #platforms favour something else than what we need. We will never win there. #fediverse is our only hope.
