Okay I guess it’s time for an #introduction. I showed up here a little while before the #exodus, just setting up #microblogpub along with some other some #selfhosted stuff. I didn’t realize all these other amazing people were about to show up! And, I dunno, I guess I am a little better dressed than I normally am. Ha! Anyway, once people started showing up and everyone seemed to think I belonged here, it felt like it would be rude to leave, and so now I’ve been at this party all night, hanging out with someone who claims to be an Eastern European princess, drinking loads of #champagne. I’ve had way too much cocaine, and I think I now have a job at a bank? Or an embassy? A man gave me this phone and a business card with my name on it that looks like it would be from a place like that, but it’s in a language I can’t read, so I can’t tell. Something tells me he thinks I have important secrets, though, and is keeping me alive only as long as he believes that. These don’t seem like people to be trifled with. There was a bottle of vodka in the shape of a Tommy gun behind the bar. The man noticed me noticing it and took it down and handed it to me. I tried to decline politely, but he said “no no, my gift to you.” His face told me it was a test. Behind him, a man gave me a silent look that said not to argue any further. I don’t know when or if I will be allowed to leave. I am interested in #cats and #beer, and I can’t wait to meet all of you. Please remember to #cw!!
