Thought I'd get the ball rolling as this is empty!

I'm neamhsplach, I'm undiagnosed but I'm being screened for possible ADHD and/or dyspraxia because of some issues I've had with work.

I love Taskmaster and never miss an episode of The Blindboy Podcast. Looking forward to chatting to you all!

I'm a retired science teacher and union president. I've had a history of depression. I like science fiction.

Hi neamhsplach,

I've been here 5 days or so, but been busy.. Been away for a few days travelling, currently in Coimbra, Portugal. Anyway, I haven't been doing much union stuff since I retired, but have been boosting union content on Mastodon. I've also been writing up stuff to help explain the fediverse and the reddit stuff.

Since Mastodon isn’t about grabbing your eyeballs and not letting go, when you get to the end of your feed, try closing the browser and doing something else. Take a walk, read a book, talk to your sweetie. It’s much better for your mental health.

I love this part!

You sound like a fun person to talk to :)

Thanks mananevergone,

Anything in particular you want to chat about? Right now I'm traveling to Coimbra Portugal. It's very pretty, but also with very steep hills, which my aging feet and knees don't like.

I like science fiction too! What's your favourite at the moment?

Hi SanityFM,

I've been here 5 days or so, but been busy.. Been away for a few days travelling, currently in Coimbra, Portugal. Anyway, I just finished reading Dune for the nth time, because I want it fresh in my mind when the second half of the movie comes out. I've also been writing up stuff to help explain the fediverse and the reddit stuff.
