So I passed my TExES Special Education exam. In one month I should be fully certified for my interim license and in one year I'll be a fully licensed teacher.
Also I did this in my first attempt so pretty happy.

Christine Malex posts on Mastodon: "Fuck I love Mastodon! No other platform has ever given me as a Blind person such access to the public sphere as I've gotten today from alt text of protests in the United States. Thanks to all you gorgeous folk for demonstrating that inclusion matters, cause it sure does to me!"

So a short infographic I've been working based on the talks I've had over the weekend and when the 5 cups of coffee finally left my body.

#Mastodon #Fediverse #infographic #resist #conservative #farright
An infographic titled "Why the Far-Right Fails on Mastodon" with a colorful vertical timeline design. It lists seven key reasons why Mastodon is resistant to right-wing influence. Each section has a distinct color and icon. Section 1, "Federated Structure," explains that Mastodon has no central authority, allowing individual servers to block harmful instances. Section 2, "Community-Driven Moderation," highlights that local moderation teams prevent hate speech. Section 3, "No Algorithmic Amplification," notes that Mastodon doesn’t boost content based on outrage, reducing the spread of extremist content. Section 4, "Cultural Barriers," points out Mastodon’s left-leaning, privacy-focused culture that is unwelcoming to far-right influencers. Section 5, "Defederation Power," explains that instances can block harmful servers like Gab. Section 6, "No Profit Motive," states that Mastodon doesn’t rely on ad revenue, reducing incentives for inflammatory content. Section 7, "Examples," lists Gab and Truth Social's failed attempts to integrate with Mastodon. The infographic ends with the Mastodon logo and links to join the platform.

So I'm a little late to #GlobalSwitchDay but I edited some graphics I saw floating around and decided to add #XMPP and #DeltaChat as replacements for #WhatsApp and #Facebook messenger.

Okay the living room is coming together! So choice!

I think I'm prepared for a mini #Halloween movie marathon. I'm very much into the season right before Christmas.
Have it locked and loaded on my #Jellyfin server ready for viewing.
