beige.party is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

Simon Roy Hughes 🍄<p>Looks like the reply guy lost interest. But I think my last toot in the thread may interest those who appreciate the concept of <a href="https://beige.party/tags/EthicalFolklore" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EthicalFolklore</span></a>. </p><p><a href="https://beige.party/@SimonRoyHughes/114250656913692159" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">beige.party/@SimonRoyHughes/11</span><span class="invisible">4250656913692159</span></a></p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Folklore" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Folklore</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Sami" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Sami</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Folktales" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Folktales</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Legends" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Legends</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Colonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Colonialism</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Norway" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Norway</span></a></p>
Simon Roy Hughes 🍄<p>A thought for Saturday: </p><p>There are people behind <a href="https://beige.party/tags/folklore" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>folklore</span></a> of any sort. These people have told their stories, practised their rites, maintained their traditions because they believed in them, and because the folklore was theirs.</p><p>When we begin to view these people’s folklore as a means to our end (which nearly always means the extraction of filthy lucre, directly or otherwise), our practice removes us from the people who developed the folklore; we are rather conducting capitalistic, and ultimately colonialistic, <a href="https://beige.party/tags/exploitation" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>exploitation</span></a>.</p><p>Is that who we want to be?</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/folklore" class="u-url mention">@<span>folklore</span></a></span> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FolkloreThursday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkloreThursday</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/EthicalFolklore" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EthicalFolklore</span></a></p>
Simon Roy Hughes 🍄<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/folklore" class="u-url mention">@<span>folklore</span></a></span> Perhaps we can develop <a href="https://beige.party/tags/EthicalFolklore" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EthicalFolklore</span></a> as a new curated hashtag.</p>
