Which is probably the only thing I hate about Mastodon. That's what we tell little kids to call farts.

my instance calls them "yiffs"

Can't we just all agree to call them "ejaculations" instead?

Well they did change it to post but every good instance patches it back to toot because it's a toot. Iirc it was hbomb who joked and caused it to be that in return for joining the patreon lol.

My first thought was "trumpet", so I'm on board with toot.
