This is a little known fact about friendica.world: in order for the site to stay functional, a button must be pushed every 108 minutes. If not pushed, the site quickly becomes unable to facilitate the transmission of cute cats and sick memes. Here's an image of an admin dutifully performing this task in the Fedihosting Foundation's Swan Hatch taken from a friendica.world documentary:

There used to be an admin here by the name of Radzinsky who recently disappeared under mysterious circumstances. They haven't been heard from in a while but it may just be a federation issue with their alt (@ me if you can see this buddy). Radzinsky's absence has led to brief periods where the button could not be pushed. As either the posts or the instance itself hold some serious electromagnetic powers at bay, this has had some foretold but previously unseen space-time consequences.

For much of the last week, most of Germany - the site of both the server and the anomaly - has been unstuck in time, bouncing between the present day and the 1970s. They haven't had to spend much time outside of their proper time period but that brings its own set of challenges. In an endless loop, they zap back to the 70s and get made fun of for wearing silly clothes; then they put on period appropriate clothing only to be zapped to the present day where they're made fun of again. Though the long-term effects of these temporal blips are unknown, the experience has understandably wreaked havoc on German self-esteem.

This was all foretold in the training videos but we failed to heed the warning. Here's another unheeded warning from the Swan Hatch countdown clock error glyphs. Loosely translated, they read "you look ridiculous in those pants":
