Hi, Everyone:
Just a reminder that I've moved to a different account. The auto transfer function didn't work well, so some people were left here, so I reactivated.
I'm now the owner of my own private server:

Abuse, PTSD, leaving Twitter (thread)
Let’s be clear: #Elon Musk’s behavior (& that of his buddies) is #abuse. It’s not a symptom of mental illness.
As a billionaire, he has outsized power, allowing him to hold thousands of people (his employees & #Twitter users) in an abusive dynamic writ large.
If you depended on Twitter for your livelihood or support system, & especially if you have experienced this dynamic before, you’re likely displaying internal & behavioral #trauma or #ptsd responses. 🧵

Trolls, themselves, don't tend to believe in listening to everyone.
They're certainly not looking for debate.
To them, a discussion is not even about uncovering a truth or—more unsubtlely—being right or wrong.
It's about winning or losing.
From a troll's perspective, all interactions are a game with a desired outcome: winning.
In order to deal effectively with trolls, you can't even let them play their game.

Dang... you made me look.
Here is how you can put hashtags in your dashboard.
I mean ... for the tattoo. 😄
Please use spellcheck.
Did a little exploration of #Pleroma instances. Seems to be nothing of value there. Am I missing something? #fediverse

Yeah, sure, @freemo messes up sometimes. Because he actually DOES THINGS.
He also seeks constructive criticism and corrects course. More than once a day in public.
You can be comfortable, or you can be a change agent.
If it weren't for a few stragglers I care about, I would never go back on Twitter again. I'll hold on one more month.

The longer I’m around the more I’ve learned life is about perspective. Like who knew the underside of a mushroom could be such an interesting view? I mean the ants & ladybugs probably knew but they weren’t spilling their secrets.
Try to view things a little differently today and just see what happens. Hopefully good things. ❤️

A few days ago, I asked a self-identified leftist why they're still on Twitter.
Their response: "I shouldn't have to leave Twitter, Elon Musk should!"
🙄
That's not how it works.
Elon Musk literally owns Twitter now. It's completely in his private hands. Twitter isn't even trading on the stock market anymore.
Twitter's data centers hosting all your tweets? Elon Musk physically owns them now.
Everything you put on Twitter now -- Elon Musk owns it!
@DrFunkySpoon This is your wheelhouse.
