I don't think I am going to mind much if birdsite dies and I am not artificially pseudo-famous anymore. It might make it harder for me to make my side income, but I will deal somehow.

It's just really surreal to find out that people who are actually real-life famous and also had a massive impact on my life are following my shitposts - and sometimes I have had so much traffic in the feed I did not even notice it.

I feel like I would have said something smarter, or more meaningful, or posted less hamster photos. Even though people like them!

@hacks4pancakes how do you think I feel? I’m a nobody and yet I have a few famous people (yourself included) who actually follow me. I’m not special, just another white guy who doesn’t have that much unique to say, yet people follow me. It’s a weird thing to think about.

@waynedixon social media may ultimately be our society's downfall, but it was certainly an equalizer in a lot of ways.

@hacks4pancakes it definitely is an equalizer, and it has been a great way for many to connect, and re-connect (like us), but also, quite problematic in so many ways.

@waynedixon I am pretty sure every time I have talked to one of my idols, I said something idiotic, though.

@hacks4pancakes well, yeah, I’m sure if I ever met any of my idols I would do the same. I wouldn’t be worried about saying something idiotic in front of you, because you knew me when I was a teen, and well yeah, I’m sure I said a ton of idiotic things back then.
