I have a Mastodon account on
https://social.coop, which I follow on this account (baslowvania@social.communitarium.org, for those of you keeping track). This account is on a self-hosted instance of (streams), itself a federated platform. (streams) allows me either to
share a post -- which is what I am doing here -- or to
repeat a post, which I will do next, with a followup to the post I'm sharing here.
I'm running this little experiment to figure out the difference between "sharing" and "repeating". My guess is that the former allows me to post a comment along with the original post being shared...whereas a "repeat" does not. We'll know soon enough...
My wife (second from the right) joined seniors, healthcare workers, and families who lost loved ones in nursing homes -- to protest at a Queens Senior Center where
#AndrewCuomo (courting the Senior demographic in his pursuit of the NYC mayoral nomination) was scheduled to speak.
They demanded answers, accountability and justice for the deadly consequences of his COVID-era nursing home policies.
Cuomo canceled at the last minute—probably to avoid facing them.
