Some people measure time to death of a social media platform by a head of lettuce. A leaf wilts, the bell tolls.
Me? I measure it by whether or not Chuck Tingle has published an erotic novella about it yet.

@sianberry I think their publicists must be the same people who put the endless crypto ads on the tube...!

@sianberry I won't pretend to know who most of the people in that clip are, but I certainly agree with the sentiment!

I really enjoyed this clip about sports (plural because American!) and the cryptocurrency nonsense.
Why are dodgy crypto companies targeting sport fans so hard? Even sponsoring the baseball umpires? And why might sport fans be receptive?
"Because crypto is gambling!"

There's a kind of mental exhaustion specifically linked to being on social media. I'm hoping that this lumbering dinosaur site will prove a safer, calmer place in the end than the Hitchcock nightmare of the birdsite...
@Scientits it certainly seems that way! I started this account as a "just in case" one, but it's looking more and more likely that it'll evolve into a thing.
@gpowerf Hi! I look forward to meeting people interested in both of those subjects, because I certainly am :)
@trinsec Thanks, will do!
Well, here I am... I'll hold off on posting a full introduction post for now as I don't know for sure if I'll be moving in permanently. Anyway, hi!
