Someone on Bluesky noted that this might be a good time to start blogging again (hashtag-resist advice they called it). Rather than paraphrase, I'll just post the Tom & Lorenzo thread here as it covers their reasoning and rationale:
So, I'm dusting off this old blog with the intention of holding onto a platform that isn't so beholden to the whims of toxic billionaires and algo-generated dreck. I don't know exactly what I'll do here, but it will likely involve shaking my fist, kicking against pricks, and sharing some personal notes and observations.
Also, we bought a house. So expect to hear about that too.
A man and a woman stand in the snow-covered front yard of an older home. They are smiling for the camera and holding a sign that says, "SOLD" in between them. While you can't see their faces, I have it on good authority that their hearts are full in equal measures with hope and terror, such is the adventure they are about to embark upon!
Til next post...
