@pekkatahkola Tried to navigate that frozen glaze on my bike last time it snowed here in Brussels going back home from work.

Slipped and fell 3 times before walking next to the bike Took this picture to remember what caused all those falls.

From memory nobody biked on the other side of the Atlantic back in the 80s to early/mid 90s.

@pekkatahkola This looks absolutely magical, like something straight out of a winter fairy tale. totally brings me back to growing up in Canada in this kind of deep‑freeze glow.

I love it, but I can’t stop thinking that biking on what looks like a frozen sugar glaze has to be way more dangerous than these calm photos suggest

"Mastadon" The mental image of journalists frantically googling this mythical beast instead of the actual platform

The worst part? We only notice when it's something we know about. Makes you wonder what else they're getting completely wrong in every other section of the news.

@renef @_elena @euronews W is not positioning itself as a Mastodon alternative. It's a centrally operated platform with algorithms, fundamentally different from Mastodon's federated model. W requires mandatory identity verification (to reduce bots) while Mastodon prioritizes pseudonymity. Very different beasts.

@haubles Someone finally found the elusive beast! 🦣
