I'm not posting here anymore. There's no point these days. The algorithm started deprioritising my content to the extent that hardly anyone sees it.

If you want to find me, I'm now posting on Blue Sky. My name there is the same as here: rodduncan

@jmspdly @lloydshep I believe they are filming it now. Last year they had a Christmas celebrity special and then just after Christmas the real series began again. Fingers crossed!

[Rod @RodDuncan]

How is Twitter going for everyone? I feel happier having largely abandoned it.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

@JDEllisonJDE Presently working on a novel. But other forms, including script, are always there on the back burner.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

Glancing back in here, I notice the only notifications I've had in the last couple of days have been follows from experts in book marketing etc. Now, back to BlueSky and Insta.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

Comparing Twitter and the lovely Bluesky this morning reminds me how Twitter once was. It has changed SO fast since Dr X took over.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

@Public_Pers Thank you.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

Apparently a lot of UK folk have been leaving Twitter for BlueSky in the last few days. I've been leaning the same way following Elon's recent tweets. I uninstalled the app already. If I can make contact with enough of my Twitter friends over there, I will be gone.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

Having uninstalled the Twitter App, I'm now shifting more to blue sky.

I can still feel the absolute terror and horror of seeing my mum do this..I can still smell it

A well linked/documented thread from a respected journalist.

[Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com on Bsky @ErinInTheMorn]

1. Colleagues allege that Dr. Hillary Cass, author of the "Cass Review" used to crack down on trans care in the United Kingdom, recomended clinicians read an anti-trans activist book comparing youth transition to the holocaust.

Subscribe to support my journalism. Lets dig in.

@CCullingworth It seems to have crossed over to another level with the owner of Twitter doing things that have been taken to imply that he is actually promoting fasch* revolution in the UK!

[Rod @RodDuncan]

I've uninstalled the Twitter app on my phone. I'll still be posting and reading Tweets from my laptop. But perhaps with somewhat less frequency. (If you DM me here, I'll get an alert via email - so will be unlikely to miss it.)

[Rod @RodDuncan]

@CCullingworth @Public_Pers Thank you.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

@Public_Pers I do have it. I hadn't used it recently though. I will get back to that.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

The writing continues well today.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

Wishing everyone going to Worldcon a wonderful time. I'm still not recovered enough from my post covid fatigue to have been able to attend. But I'm looking forward to seeing your posts.

I did it.

[Rod @RodDuncan]

I dreamed last night that I was working on the novel and glanced at the word count and realised - to my pleasant surprise - that I'd put down 2000 words. This morning, I couldn't remember if it had actually happened. (It hadn't. But I'm working on it.)

[Rod @RodDuncan]

@nicolanovelist Uncle Dabber is a great name, though.
