You think Kari Lake will show up at the Powerball offices to demand her money after her ticket doesn't win?

Well, honey, people were upset about gas prices so they let Nazis take over.

If the twitter takeover signals, as I think it does, the decline of Big Corporate Social Media, I wonder what will happen with news outlets. We all know that newspapers have declined as Facebook/ Twitter ascended. I know I'm not the only one who got their news primarily from twitter for the past few years. What does media look like with the decentralization of social media? I don't have any answers or even guesses, I'm just wondering.
would love to see Romancelandia adopt widespread use of the CW tag, especially for politics and terrible news

Okay, the instance I want to move to has upgraded to allow migration, so I think I'm doing that today. I'll lose my posts so far, right? But it's early days, so this is the best time. #instancemigration
I'm off work today, which was kind of a bad plan, because now I'm going to be tempted to be Too Online, obsessing about election results.

Can't spell "fediverse" without "diverse", is all I'm saying.

Edit:

I posted this and the parent toot at the start of Nov'22 wave of new people and communities joining fedi, bringing their specific needs and expectations.

Fedi learned a lot about itself since then, including that it needs to *dramatically* improve on the #antiracism front.

We need to recognize that fedi *failed* #Black / #BIPOC folks, and do better.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] If there's a police shooting and there is a video? I put a CW around that. I also put CWs around topics like disordered eating, etc. But I experience racism almost every day, as do most Black US citizens. I'm not going to start every other sentence with "CW" just to make y'all feel better. Hiding racism to protect white feelings is just more racism. I won't do it. I do respect folks' right to Block me for that. 👍🏿
