I’ve migrated completely over to @joinmastodon. I believe in a more free and federated version of the web. To that end, I am hosting my own Mastodon/Hometown instance at https://t.co/2tGjyUyc9s - an intentionally small online community.

You can reach me at [email protected]

@IwriteOK As a long time listener of the pod and fellow trainwreck I have to know — were you a Famiglia di Ythrl WoW goon or the other kind? Did we raid together? I signed into Twitter just to find out.

On #MyTwitterAnniversary know that I've left this platform behind. You can find me at [email protected] on the fediverse.

Folks can find me at [email protected] on @joinmastodon. I am excited about technology that is federated & freer.

It seems to me like the small business rent delinquency trend isn't getting enough airtime.

I was always wondering what's the difference between Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Now I know: Google knows about every f*cking payment you make, while Apple doesn't.

.@zapier "can I copy your homework?"

@orange "yeah just change it up a bit so it doesn't look obvious you copied"

@zapier "ok"

[Nicholas Grossman @NGrossman81]

If you could handle the change from Lou Alcindor to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and the change from Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali—both after they were already public figures—you can handle the change from Ellen Page to Elliot Page. I promise, you'll be OK. It doesn't actualy affect you.

Words don’t mean anything anymore if weapons count as Environmental, Social and Governance assets.

[Bloomberg @business]

With a Russian invasion right on its doorstep, Europe now finds itself discussing whether weapons should be listed as ESG assets, to grant them more favorable access to financing https://t.co/i5g4ImrdQ1

[thomas j. hils (he/him) @tjhils]

Wow. I just finished @SequoiaN's "How High We Go in the Dark" and it's an emotional equivalent of a kick in the face. Might be my favorite book of 2022.

Tremendously sad, and hopeful.

4.5/5. Go read it. The Audible narration is also on point if that's your kind of thing.
