I just popped over to #Twitter. Slowly but surely, it's starting to feel like an abandoned shopping mall in a dystopian movie. Shattered glass everywhere. A hole in the roof. There's a tree growing inexplicably on a rusted escalator, moss on discarded electrical items. Wild dogs roam in packs through looted stores past waterlogged, peeling standees of smiling models promoting forgotten products. Carcasses of blue birds litter the ground.
@Richard_Littler does feel desolate doesn’t it!
@Richard_Littler with lots of right wing trolls creeping about saying, we're still open! Come follow us!
@Richard_Littler but what you're describing has a lot of potential.
@Richard_Littler I say it’s like the penal colony that Manhattan became in Escape from New York.
@Richard_Littler
Omg, your post is awesome. Deserved more than a ⭐ !
@Richard_Littler say it like you mean it 😅
@Richard_Littler sigh. I hear you. And I used to enjoy hanging out there
@Richard_Littler Just came across this in my feed and when I started reading, it was words. But at some point I was just there in that mall. You are an amazing writer.
@Richard_Littler and giant purple footprints from what appears to be some kind of giant mammoth
@Richard_Littler it's more like abandoned war zones with wild trolls lingers at dark corners ready to pounce at moment notice of anti-space karen tweets...now there is the "suspension" ghost lingering around kicking people off the war zones upon mentioning the links to mastodon...elonjet heh.

@Richard_Littler I hope these journalists have the integrity to now delete their accounts. If ONLY there was an alternative to Twitter though, eh?

@Richard_Littler Sadly, I think, 90% of people still don't care and are staying ...
@Richard_Littler But are there zombies? There must be zombies.
@Richard_Littler Except that sounds pretty cool tho...
@Richard_Littler The 2020’s will make some good movies in the 2030’s.
@Richard_Littler You forgot to mention marauding bands of troublemakers, looking for a pretext to fight.
@Richard_Littler somewhere a disembodied voice asks, “what’s your favourite fish?”

@steely_glint @Richard_Littler thanks for the shout out. Humble photographer of decay, at your service 🙏
