A person. On social media. On the internet. I have a cat.
Work. Doctors. Protests. Work. Doctors. Protests.
Food? Maybe
Sleep? Nah
Smiles on the side, right next to the dip, thanks.
Leave the bill on the table. Stack it on top. Easy to see the pile.
I'll get to it eventually
When will I get to live?
When will I get to breathe?
I'll get to it eventually

I wish most social media platforms weren't owned by meta. At least the popular ones. I don't use meta platforms and it sucks that I am used to them.
Maybe I'll find something else to use more often one day. It's been lonely being "offline".

How many more times am I going to feel the timeline split?

Hey "allies", you're not an "ally" if you're letting your friends say racist/ableist/homphobic/etc shit behind our backs and nervously laughing it off bc you're scared to lose those friends.
Stand up for us when we're not there. BE an ally, don't just say you are.

Folks, I don't intend to post about every single horrible thing that's happening at the moment because I'm not a direct news source and also because my mental health has an upper limit. Don't confuse lack of obsessive news updating for lack of concern or lack of personal action. Also, here's a cat.

Great shows. Very informative. I learned a ton this past Sunday. Woof, I needed that ✊️
Author, activist, YouTuber. Live shows Sun 3:30PM EST, clips during the week.

I am not "polished" nor perfect.
I do not reach across the aisle.

What I am is honest.
What I do is fight what I see as injustice.

I am often unapologetically profane. And I will fight for you.

What social media platform is best for old millennials to vaguepost song lyrics like we used to on #MySpace?

Finally getting to play some games. Dialogue heavy and choice base ones make me happy because I feel like I have...a choice. 🤣

Meta's Mark Zuckerberg has joined Elon Musk in allowing disinformation to flourish on his platforms in order to gain Donald Trump's favor. It’s about to get very ugly on Facebook.

The author here has some great points among them is that we, the consumer, need to wrest back control from these platforms and build a new way forward.
Social media is getting worse. Every platform, the whole internet really.

It’s all enshittified, and I worry that a lot of us are coming to like it.

It’s easy to enjoy, when we should be freeing the internet from the shackles of profit and oligarchy.

Funny how many "friends" noped out of my life when I became disabled 🙃🙃 and some blamed it on random shit. Or just ghosted altogether. And now suddenly I have a shit ton of "allies". Great but where were you when I was invisible?
Disabled people know what support looks like. Step up. Listen.

"Dude, I think you're depressed."
"Why?"
"Nickleback came on and you didn't turn it off."

I have no idea how to use this platform. What's the etiquette here? Do I just follow people I don't know? Is that rude? How do I People? 🤣 Do I use hashtags? Yikes I feel old

Did not know TX and IL pushed back against AI and social media this hard. I like knowing if someone uploads a pic of me without my consent I could take legal action. 👍
