BenAfter the success of <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a>, I'm keepin' it rollin' with <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FRENuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FRENuary</a> (no *you* shut up). Just wanted to mention that if you're not following, I very much enjoy the work of <a href="https://mendeddrum.org/@heapy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@heapy</a> who is FUNNY and NICE and will improve your life whether you like it or not. X(sorry I said frenuary)

Farah :gaysparkles:I know <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> is over but in these trying times may I suggest following <a href="https://mas.to/@Jgbird" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Jgbird</a> ? His bird pics are fabulous! And always manage to lift my spirits

Scott the F is implicit BaxterTo the bunch of people I follow here because I like what they post - informative to skewed to funny to inspiring to simpatico to challenging: You go, people I follow on here!(<a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Fanuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fanuary</a>, I guess. I'm aware that my not @-ing anyone means they won't even see this if they don't follow me.)

Joe Wynne 🌻 🚗 ⛰️<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> 🧵 🌻 <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gardening</a> is a big helpful community on Mastodon. Among the many who have energized my TLs: <a href="https://toot.wales/@richrollgardener" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@richrollgardener</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/@Broadfork" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Broadfork</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/@artistsgarden" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@artistsgarden</a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/@colinpurrington" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@colinpurrington</a>Don't forget to follow this group <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/gardening" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@gardening</a>👥 Loneliness is bad for you. But Mastodon has at least one community builder to fight it: <a href="https://disabled.social/@vlrny" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@vlrny</a> who started the <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/lonelinesscorps" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@lonelinesscorps</a> group "for anybody wanting to help battle social isolation. For yourself or others." Her humor: "If you have put on pants today I am already proud of you. If you haven't, I might be even more proud."

Michele Feltman StriderI'm sliding in here during the last hours of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fanuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fanuary</a> to strongly recommend that you follow <a href="https://mstdn.social/@yurnidiot" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@yurnidiot</a> for the high-quality critter content. The "find the cats" posts are your new obsession

Mandu 🥟<a href="https://beige.party/@Kierkegaanks" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Kierkegaanks</a>NGL I didn't get it at first, but have come to realize their shitposts are pretty clever and next level. They're so next level that I still don't get half the references (that's on me), but I like the way his mind works.<a href="https://beige.party/@tayfonay/113924492900192406" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://beige.party/@tayfonay/113924492900192406</a><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fanuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fanuary</a>

Frantic 🇬🇧 + 🇪🇺My <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> boost for a person or account on Mastodon that makes my Mastodon experience a little better goes to –<a href="https://zirk.us/@ChrisMayLA6" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ChrisMayLA6</a> for his insightful commentary on a whole range of subjects related to <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UK</a> political, social and economic matters.

Max LeibmanI will try to post more <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> peeps if I have time today, but one more before I go: <a href="https://beige.party/@LoganFive" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@LoganFive</a>. I feel like I'm getting very repetitive with the others above, but: you're funny, you're a positive presence in my timeline, and I'm proud to have you in my mutuals.

Max LeibmanI would be remiss if I didn't also give a <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> shoutout to <a href="https://beige.party/@the_etrain" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@the_etrain</a>. One thing that I've found on all of these platforms is that every now and then, I'll get followed by someone and instantly think, "Oh, shit. HE followed me?" and feel like I really have to up my game. You were one of those. And I have definitely failed to up my game in any way. But I love the vibe of your posts and always feel extra validated when one of my jokes warrants a boost from such a hilarious poster.

Max LeibmanI have to make a <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> post about at least one person who's not on Beige.party, right? I can't think of a better candidate than <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/@Aphelion" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Aphelion</a>. I called you the poet laureate of my timeline once before, and I meant it. Your verse is haunting, in the best possible way—you share darkness and it lights up Mastodon. I'm proud to have you among my mutuals.

Max LeibmanOne of the first new followers I remember picking up after moving to Beige was <a href="https://beige.party/@photovotary" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@photovotary</a>, who I quickly followed back. Your posts and replies run the gamut from prosaic to somber to deeply funny, but they are a consistently thoughtful presence in my timeline, and I'm glad you're here. <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a>

Max LeibmanI would be remiss if I didn't <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> in the general direction of <a href="https://beige.party/@TheBreadmonkey" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@TheBreadmonkey</a>. Which isn't hard to do, because his general direction is [gestures to my entire Home timeline]. You lament from time to time that you post too much; maybe you do, but only in the same sense that my favorite Thai food is too spicy. It is! But that's part of the fun. I like your humor, and the unfiltered way you bare your stream of consciousness for us all to share. I finally came to Beige because of a critical mass of mutuals here, but when I first started contemplating it many months before, you and <a href="https://beige.party/@Alice" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Alice</a> were the main draws.

Max LeibmanMy second <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> goes out to <a href="https://beige.party/@Alice" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Alice</a>. There are people who have larger followings than me that I am perpetually jealous of. You're one of the few that has always been ahead of me but that I've never felt that way about. The way you put yourself out there is both hilarious and inspiring and set me instantly at ease. A fave from you brightens my day more than ten other boosts.

Max LeibmanMy first <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> highlight, the founder of the feast: <a href="https://beige.party/@adhdeanasl" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@adhdeanasl</a>. Your sense of humor is right up my alley, your work makes the world more accessible, and you are a positive influence on the tone and culture here (just look at what you did with the FANuary tag!). I'm proud to have you in my circle on Mastodon.

Max LeibmanIn classic Max fashion, I am making all of my <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> posts at the last possible moment, having procrastinated the month away. I held off for the same reason I'm bad about doing things like <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FollowFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FollowFriday</a>: I feel bad about forgetting someone, leaving someone out. So I'm going to FANuarize (🤮) a few people here, but I am sure to run out of time or things to say or just forget someone. If (when) I do, I'm sorry. I'll try to be better about recommending my mutuals in the future.

Lydia SchochMy final Fanuary recommendation for this year goes to <a href="https://mastodon.social/@smellsofbikes" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@smellsofbikes</a> for all of the slice-of-life photographs they share. They cycle to such peaceful places! It makes me want to start biking again.Their food and nature photos are also a welcomed break from the important but heavy topics Mastodon has been discussing lately. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Fanuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fanuary</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Cycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cycling</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a>

Sonja SchulteYou probably know this meme. And you like beautiful bird drawings and good jokes? Then you’re in luck, as the original <a href="https://mastodon.social/@falseknees" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@falseknees</a> has joined the fediverse! <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/FF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FF</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/followfriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#followfriday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a>

Mandu 🥟<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fanuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fanuary</a> pick: <a href="https://mastodon.social/@michelestrider" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@michelestrider</a>She's an author who's written a few books, some under a male pen name, maybe because men get paid more. There's one about a pirates, another about mermaids, and others about food and fish. Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to read any of them, but I hope to someday as soon as I learn how to read. If her toots are any indication, I bet they are excellent.

Joe Wynne 🌻 🚗 ⛰️<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/FANuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FANuary</a> Without an algorithm, people who build or support communities are very important. Some of those I have discovered in my interest areas:<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SciFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciFi</a> @alsopaislaycat is most recently creating a discussion group @thearkchat <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheArkChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TheArkChat</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/@MirrorAyako" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@MirrorAyako</a> leads the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/AllStarTrek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AllStarTrek</a> watch party and bonus activities.📺 🎞️ Movie, TV and Music Watch PartiesAt watch parties, you meet people who are interesting, clever and funny. I also attend. 😄 They add value to what you are watching. Enjoyable side conversations are part of the fun. Examples: <a href="https://octodon.social/@Taweret" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Taweret</a> for <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Monsterdon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@SesameSquirrel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@SesameSquirrel</a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/@MatthewTitus88" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@MatthewTitus88</a> lead multiple popular parties. <a href="https://mastodon.social/@analgesicsleep" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@analgesicsleep</a> for <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/MusComEnt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MusComEnt</a> (Musicals, Comedies, and Entertainment) and a lot more.There are many more leaders that I will recommend later in this thread. Check out a watch party!
