I've been on this website for a very long time. Looks like it's time to finally abandon ship. I think it looks like most people are going over to Hive Social so I created an account over there too with an updated picture. You can find me over there @Vladeon as well.
I can't even hide from it anymore as Twitter has started showing fascist tweets to everyone. Probably in hopes to convert people to it. I can't support a company like this. I really love the people I've met along the way though and hope we can all stay in touch.
Ok all I finally had enough. I'm deleting Twitter. If y'all want to keep in touch I put my info in my bio. It's been a wild 14 years on here but I can't stay on here any longer seeing fascism find it's hold and promoted from Twitters leadership.

@The_Galactabee What's up with all of these posts pushing the line that "things were better back in the day" boomer shit? Like the ridiculously bad classical architecture chodes. I'm convinced it's gotta be some sort of conservative push.
@hallo_spacebear Absolutely crazy you had to do this. Another reason why I'm very close to just uninstalling Twitter. It just sucks that I'd lose contact with all the cool folks I met here.
@dannnitdanny @StonedKimster It makes it worse, but taller toilets are better for people with mobility issues so yes, they were made for old people. Thankfully it's pretty easy to change out a toilet yourself if you're feeling handy and have a long weekend coming up.
@GulaMiko @SustainableTall Older buildings are MUCH less efficient and require much higher HVAC loads to be comfortable. I'm working on a historic building like above that has a current EUI of 90 (even with tons of PV) whereas new built buildings have EUIs of 30 or less and some even being 0 or negative.
@aftie_j @ask_aubry There are single legged tables too. This guy's analogy is... Not good. Definitely not good enough to shape his entire worldview around.
@Eric_Erins Anon learns the original purpose for universities and the current purpose for ivy league colleges. Wait till he hears about the purpose of private schools.
@sp_litt I have the same problem. I'm always afraid I'm going to accidentally like a tweet from some awful person since I've noticed a lot of conservative tweets showing up in my "for you" section and it's really disconcerting.
@SatyrosBrucato@JoyceCarolOates It's something that's so easily disproven too. Just because they didn't call it "depression" doesn't mean it didn't happen. Virginia Woolf famously killed herself because of her depression and she was born 140 years ago.
@culturaltutor The answer to every one of these posts is Money and Safety. Ornamentation is very expensive and often times creates unsafe conditions (kids can climb up the first image easily but not the second). It's very simple. If you want to do a thread on the history of lamps, just say that
