I don’t know of any other social media platform that can do this. Usually this blog serves as my MEMORY for when I want to check back on when this or that happened. And to be honest I was actually going to write a post about my new iridescent green jacket – never forget this is the MOST BORING BLOG in the world! – but couldn’t find a good photo of it. And while I was kicking myself for not doing this when they told me at El Corte Inglés they could only help me if I remembered the exact day I bought the jacket I suddenly remembered this tweet.
I only chat like this on Twitter. My random whatevers. Though I am making progress with Bluesky in case Twitter suddenly flips over and dies. After trying ALL the Twitter alternatives Bluesky is the one that works for me. And really? I’ve been meeting some lovely people there. Poco á poco.
This weekend Meta Dread Threads was finally approved by the EU so people here could join up and bing bing bing suddenly all their friends from Facebook and Instagram were there too because (duh) IT’S THE SAME FUCKING COMPANY. So they are signing up in droves because omg it’s so easy! I don’t know why the EU finally decided to let Threads in, and I don’t care. I am just NOT going to have every single social media platform I use being run by the same crazed company.
So for now I am sticking with floundering Twitter and upstart Bluesky. If you need a Bluesky invite code just let me know.
