Full disclosure, I got my Twitter account back tonight, for however long it lasts. Here’s how I feel about it.

Being back on Twitter is a mixed bag but since my overall project is getting fascists held accountable, I can’t ignore this kind of scale.

My first thread back is at near a quarter million impressions.

That said, being on Twitter feels like going to a particularly toxic workplace. Mastodon feels like being home with friends and family.

I just need to figure out some new workflows now. Please bear with me. 🙏💙

@jimstewartson Ugh. Why feed the beast? It just seems to cement this idea that Twitter is irreplaceable. This is why journalists remain fixated on it. What happened to ?
