I'm an old Canadian and an old Phart too. 😁 I take life as seriously as the current situation requires. I block cross-posts from X, Truth Social and Bluesky. Not interested in them. Any toots I post, that are not in English, are via online translator.
I do *NOT* DM with with anyone I haven't interacted with in public. Saying "Hi", without anything else, doesn't count.
