Mastodon nerds, this is an urgent message: please keep nerding out on things you are passionate about and then taking us along on your deep dives. Share your pics and discoveries. Muse. Show us dust motes and explain how you learned that no two are the same. A passionate engagement with the beauty and weirdness of the world we have is a hope project. It is a meaning-making project.
