You don't get rid of me quite that quickly. Heeerrreeee I am again. I like the idea of all of us having the same cake day though. Cake is good. Cake is life.

Welp, I’m here too!

Makes me realise how much I relied on avatar’s in place of scanning peoples usernames.

If we stay, nearly everyone will celebrate cake day on the same day next year.

So there’s that.

Ok I'm here.

You know what annoys me the most about all this? I have thousands of saved posts that I was ONE DAY going to get around to sorting through. Now a lot of them are going to be gone.

I'm so happy to see so many friendly faces from Reddit here! (I'm IAmABakuAMA if anyone was wondering, but was able to score the shorter version here)

TB checking in. Relieved to see them friendly usernames here. Not sure I like the site itself but I mean this is hopefully temporary right?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Caved and signed up here, I work too much shift work alone not have some sort of little outlet.

I don't know where I am or what I've done but I'm here.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Welcome to the new frontier! It's pretty basic, but we have plenty of potatoes to sustain us while we build. 🥔

I've been here a couple of days but had a teleporting incident on the way over, which led to the development of a multiple personality disorder. I am BrightFadedDog elsewhere, but appear here in the form of a Raven😁

Been screenshotting saved posts (much to the cats' chagrin when they wanted cuddles) but enough.
If they're gone in the morning, they're gone.
Night all! szzzz

Last Wednesday's DT had 608 comments. Here we already have 321.
We are amazing.

We've just overtaken Australia as the community (on this instance) with most subscribers too.

Followed a link here 👋 discord moves too fast for me. This page layout is weirding me out too.

I don’t even know what an api is😞

Only you beautiful people are going to know about the St Kilda Rd tram disruption. Trams being diverted down Park St and Kings way from ANZAC Station. Back onto St Kilda Rd at arts precinct (theoretically - we've moved 100m in 15m on King's way)
