Well. Over the last 15 years, twitter changed my life, my business, my connections with the world.
I made friends, found lovers, built multiple business projects, learned from people with wildly different life experiences, and heard news first. 1/6
@ThatRabbiCohen what I would do differently -- I would *not* have planned that we would arrive to rent a car at the airport with no sleep and try to find our hotel while driving on the "wrong" side of the road, with no dinner reservations pre-made. Too stressful!
@ThatRabbiCohen Went to Australia for 3 weeks. One of the most romantic things was when we stayed in a luxury treehouse in Tasmania -- we had our own little building but there was a main lodge with fancy meals plus they'd pack lunches for hikes. Also loved the Daintree rain forest.

Perhaps Twitter will resurrect itself like Tumblr, get bought by wordpress in a discount firesale, embraced by a core group who didn't delete their accounts.
Until then, ❤️

@JessicaLevin yes it is strange to think about how big of a deal it was in my life, especially 2009/2010 timeframes, which were very pivotal for me personally & professionally. but also more, like 2020 learning about pandemic stuff
Once more. Musk is doing us an incredible favor by demonstrating beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is no meritocracy and that wealth and power do not, in any way, denote talent or competence.
sharing again this wonderful brief that details how: (1) parody is free speech and (2) if you don't get that it is parody ... THAT'S PART OF THE FREE SPEECH PARODY

@thetarotlady one good thing about having been on the internet for decades is that I am fairly chill about the inevitable change. I mean, I remember spending all my time on AOL in the 90s lol
@thetarotlady A lot I think! I barely post to Twitter or Instagram (and deleted my fb a while ago). Also I think it’s the future to abandon them — my 17 year old son isn’t on any mainstream social media — just discord and tumblr
