I agree it’s definitely worth following hashtags liberally for things you’re interested in. Your feed should really open up with that.

But it’s also worth doing a longish #introduction post, adding hashtags of things you like and pinning that to your profile. You might already have done that but you can always do a fresh one. People will also boost introduction posts so that might get your profile out there more.

I have an introduction pinned on my profile if it helps: https://beige.party/@brian

I want to live in a country where “cats jumping out” is what they’re warning people about!

I have a domain2 for all mailing list and non-critical services, which I’d be able to take elsewhere if I ever change provider (I’m with Tuta so I’m hoping not to have to do that anytime soon).

I own domain1 for all friends, family and critical services (like banking etc). So far, it works well.

I did quite enjoy the original novel of The Ritual but I’m surprised to see it take the number 1 spot. I’m also a fan of House of Leaves.

Of the 25 books here, my top three would John Langan’s The Fisherman (he is a superb writer); the Ligotti collection; and the Laird Barron collection.

I’m ashamed to say I’ve read fewer than half of these, but at least this means I have quite a lot of (unknown to me) books to seek out!

Oh, she’s gorgeous. Wonderful that you found each other - she looks quite settled already!

Donnie does this thing where he puts one paw over his eyes. It’s just too cute!

She’s such a beautiful little one. Thank you for rescuing her and giving her a loving home.
