There’s a universe where everything is the same except that the bad guy in lord of the rings is a big kitty cat

Since the earliest versions of The Silmarillion legendarium as detailed in the History of Middle-earth series, Sauron underwent many changes. The prototype or precursor Sauron-figure was a giant monstrous cat, the Prince of Cats. Called Tevildo, Tifil and Tiberth among other names, this character played the role later taken by Sauron in the earliest version of the story of Beren and Tinúviel in The Book of Lost Tales in 1917.

People in that social.coop Loomio thread would like to get accounts in bonfire.social.coop . I have an account there but I don't think I can give accounts to other people, unless I am missing something.

@bonfire @ivan @mayel invitations would be a great feature. Might need some special permissions, though...

I found firefish is nice but it is very resource-greedy and I suspect I can do better with a simpler stack, any suggestions? Please no #calkey#mastodon, etc this is for a 1 person server

Could we be two instances / communities?

I've been turning this thought over in my head for a couple days, and I'm curious what others think. I don't know that this is something that would ever turn into a proposal, possibly just an idea to contemplate.Some observations:1) I'm pretty new to social.coop, but from things various more senior members have said, I have the impression that decision-making and community-building were easier when the community was smaller.2) It also seems from a couple of recent conversations (e.g., the one about deferation from / moderation of Threads.net if they ever implemented ActivityPub, but the one about putting together an Organizing Circle, and one about how to moderate misinformation) that there is quite a bit of divergence among our members in visions for how the instance should be run.3) Meanwhile, it seems that there are a shortage of democratically run Fediverse instances out there.All of this has me wondering whether if we are too big for comfortable discussion of many decisions, might we be large enough to split off into two or more instances?I do think there would be more value in having a larger ecosystem of democratically run cooperatively owned instances out there, and this could be one strategy to bringing this about. I know we've also had members give presentations on this kind of thing, but I'm wondering if kicking off new instances from the inside might be easier than mentoring new instances on the outside.Thoughts?

@PetroliniVideo 😂😂😂 no loro mi danno gli euri pattuiti (in anticipo perché "tu dare me soldi, tu vedere cammello" 😜)

Comunque sono già al secondo acquisto.

Il castello non sarebbe male ma poi chi me lo mantiene 🤷‍♂️

Ho appena concluso una trattativa iniziata su Instagram e poi finita, tra scambio foto, dettagli e botta e risposta su WhatsApp.
