Somehow, I can't help feeling that #Trump was speaking a day late.
It's #HootinTootinTuesday again! Post some jokes or funny memes under this hashtag today, and bring lots of smiles to #Mastodon.
If milk expires on April 1st, does that mean it's not really expired?

No #AprilFool junk from me today.
Instead, this month's calendar page

My favorite #AprilFool joke product of all time is Lee Valley's Pouchless Toolbelt.

Particularly love the line about competitor Lie Nielsen's bronze hand planes: "Ineffective for use with bronze tools (the bronze age is over)."
Today seems like the ideal time to share this blog post I wrote last year. #AprilFool #AprilFools

Kids these days will not understand that there were periods in the history of the Internet (and its precursors) where things were basically unusable on April 1st.
It got particularly bad around the late 90’s/early 2000’s tech boom, where literally everything on April 1st was…not even good…pranks. The essence of an April Fool’s Day prank is it has to be believable at first glance, and it has to be an isolated thing. If everything you say is a prank, it just gets old.
The only difference between today and any other day is that today they’ll wink at you when they lie. Regard what you see with the same level of scrutiny every other day. They’ll be lying to you tomorrow as well, just with a bit more gloss and polish. #AprilFool
“I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow…
”. AH COOL!!

1st April in France is known as "Poisson d'Avril" or April Fish 
The traditional prank is to stick a cutout paper fish onto someone's back without them noticing.
There are also CHOCOLATE FISH to buy/gift to kids like Easter eggs.
@JohanEmpa interesting, thanks for raising the issue, and it’s not one that I had previously considered. Please can you give more context? Of those / the large servers, which would be at risk from this proposed defederation? Or is this an #AprilFool?
I was there the day this came out. It's an actual implementable standard, and indeed _has been implemented_ at least once.
It's also one of my favourite April Fools' jokes.
AND THERE'S A SONG ABOUT IT.

And the song, about its implementation: "Paper Pings", @ssavitzky (Steve Savitzsky), https://steve.savitzky.net/Songs/pigeon/
Go away, kid, you're bothering me with not only all your brain numbingly dumb but also all your annoyingly verisimilitudinous fake news posts. That's so last millennium.
Ugh. April 1st. Amirite?
Happy #AprilFool's Day!
Just in case you're feeling a little discouraged -
