Please note, this is not an exhaustive list of what I read or write about on Masto. I'm simply outlining how I run my Masto so that there's no ambiguity and we're all on the same page. Neurodivergent folks often benefit from having norms spelled out for them in outline form. Happy posting, Masto crew. :)
