It’s like they can’t even read a calendar. https://t.co/Ty1tDGkc0X, Nov 24, 2022
Evercrisp and Pink Lady apple pie, ready for the oven at 11:50PM! About an hour ahead of where I normally am with pre-Thanksgiving pie prep! https://t.co/iAds7YAMww, Nov 24, 2022
“Has #Mastodon done enough to inoculate itself from the plague on Twitter?” asks @onthemedia’s @OTMBrooke, re: designing for friction over virality. It’s striking how well the language of death and disease applies to social media. Can’t call it co-opting if the fit is so clear., Nov 19, 2022
Soooo… I’m not gonna ever see my Twitter archive, am I? ~72 hours, but I’m guessing it there’s ANY manual process involved along the way, that ship has sailed, right? And by “ship” I mean “boat,” and it was circling a bigger ship, much like this one https://t.co/7DTLhHeRVC, Nov 19, 2022
In case the fail whale finally says this bird has flown, cheers to you all! I've been using Twitter 14 years; I joined when I wanted to have bigger conversations while watching a 2008 McCain/Obama debate. Many big conversations since then—all thanks to Twitter. , Nov 18, 2022
Here’s something fun about tone policing: if a listener chooses to focus only how someone sounds and ignores what they’re saying, it’s not just the speaker who comes off as out of touch and out of their depth. https://t.co/pPWrJfywvw, Nov 17, 2022
Big congratulations to you, @VVoPham! https://t.co/YFDgQmH1Yt, Nov 16, 2022
I’ve never before been so torn between excitement and terror at the release of a book. @ChuckWendig’s Wayward is out today. I read Wanderers as coronavirus spun up to pandemic proportions; it was scarily prescient. Can’t wait to see what his latest holds. https://t.co/d7AwifCGZs, Nov 15, 2022
