Favorite stars don't cost money and can make someone smile (or at least feel seen) so I use them often. I'm not being weird at you specifically, I'm being weird at everyone...

Hey
Any recommendations for books with nonbinary or transmen main characters? Feeling like I could really use the representation, but all I'm finding are transwomen, and that's... not me. As long as it's fiction, any genre is okay.

@CrescentSays @bookstodon Jay Northcote (who is trans) has at least 2 romance novels with transmen leads: Second Chance and Starting From Scratch.

TJ Klune has a bigender protagonist in one of his romance novels: Why We Fight (he also wrote some blog posts about his writing it and how he got feedback since he's a cis white man and the character is very much not). I can probably dig up some more (also probably romance, I used to read a lot of queer romance) if you give me a little more time.

I'm thinking about Mastodon in a wide view, in the world of social media, this feels a little outsider, while at the same time it also feels like it might be the future. So, let's talk about it!
What do you get out of Mastodon?
Why are you here?
How has it compared with your other social media experiences?
What do you see for the future of Mastodon?
What do you want to see?
And basically anything else about it you want to say about Mastodon.
LET'S TALK!

@mambearpnw One of the best ways you can use hashtags (other than sticking them on the end of your posts) is that you can follow them like people. Some communities will coalesce around unusual ones (ex: people who ride bikes use , people who take photos of moss use ). What people tag can vary wildly in specificity, and they are only "discoverable" if the post is public. This post is unlisted so I don't spam people who follow those tags.

@mambearpnw Maybe? With the new search feature you might be able to just search for Holly or Stephen King, but the or hashtags will work if someone used them. I don't get many hits on the first, but I get plenty for the second.

If you're a reader you can follow or the auto-boosting group @bookstodon (this makes it easier to find people who use the hashtag), people love to talk books with those.
