@blogdiva I may be 47i age units old
About ⅓ of my age units were British, the rest were metric,
Most of the British ones switched between Greenwich Mean Time and British Summer Time, the rest were a mix of many time zones.
I was born at midnight so my parents were given a choice of two days to register my birth.
I was born closer to sea level than I have been for much of my life, so I have to adjust for relativistic gravitational time effects.
It's all very confusing.

I hear they are going to devalue age units. One New Age Unit will be equivalent to one hundred Old Age Units. This is to save RAM. And that's not even taking into account decimalization -

@Alison Luddites were fighting for labor rights and the redistribution of wealth thru social services for those who didn't have jobs because of the machines, and as higher wages and business ownership for those who were left to work with the machines. they smashed the machines not because they were bad but because capitalists were using them to harm people FOR PROFIT.

Look out for "reflections of life"

@hiisikoloart @blogdiva
I have picked up a few skills, but I'm still the same lefty rebel I was at 18,constantly arguing with the 60yr old youngster downstairs about imigration and brexshit.
@ravensrod @blogdiva
I mean, sounds like you have picked up some wisdom then.

here it goes:
what surprises me about the #fediverse is the diversity of ages. am turning 60 and there’s A LOT of folks here 10-20 years older.
so if #Mastodon #Lemmy #Pixelfed aren't just scripty kids but also grandparents, who’s here?
people finding their communities without shitty techbro algorithms.
the fediverse is a new era of #Luddites. we are not here to serve the interests of capitalists. we’re here for the #anarchy of community; because celebrating our Humanity is punk as fuck.
@blogdiva, that's what's up
! I'll be 49 yo in a few weeks. Just joined the #fediverse, but already lifted up by the richness of diversity. Feeling like I can breathe again! #generationx -

I couldn't agree more!
It's like rediscovering the dial-up bulletin boards of the 90s. We welcome a bit of the wild west feel of the early internet where the follows don't matter and the conversation is mostly legit.

@blogdiva Ha, presumably you've already seen this perfect encapsulation of the fediverse as being punk as fuck?

@blogdiva I am 72, and landed on a volunteer-cultural spot in my area , in a team that pretty much resembles my "small but precious " -list here. Originating from all parts of the world, still having vivid ties with folks there. All that feels like a nice and very hard needed "undertow" against certain sentiments in society that "are not so nice¨.

@blogdiva yeah, nobody calls me boomer here. When it's used as a pejorative I respond with, "Wherever you go and whatever you do, I've already been there and done that."
