URIs that would open the alert in an alert app or browser could be shared to multiple social media outlets; discussion could then occur on social network of choice without lock-in.

Alerts could be delivered by push notifications to emergency alert URI capable apps on mobile devices.
Mobile device vendors already support official alerts like amber alerts and other official emergency alerts being pushed to phones without any supporting app installation, but a dedicated app or web page to browser alerts would be better.

Life sometimes eats you up alive. Even when you try to stay focused and live vibrantly each and every day.
One day you may wake up and find your younger self trapped in an older body.
This will be your “Oh, Shit!” moment of realizing that TIME somehow, even while you were watching, managed to slip on by.
Advice on how to deal with the overwhelming feelings that come with this moment? Anyone who has been there and successfully come out the other side?

#sciencefiction I was just reminded that my cyberpunk trilogy, Eclipse, Eclipse Penumbra and Eclipse Corona, are available now in a Dover edition.

Eclipse: A Song Called Youth Book One

Gripping cyberpunk novel — the first in a trilogy — portrays clash between fascist overlords and rebels who battle mind control and weapons of mass destruction with sex and drugs and rock and roll. "Chillingly plausible." — <I>Kirkus Reviews</I>.

@JohnShirley2023 One of the seminal classics of early cyberpunk. Recall waiting for the final volume when historical events took a turn.
Enjoyed those early works and those of William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Pat Cadigan, and many others. Early zines, as well, e.g. Cheap Truth. The futurism present shaped my early world view.
Hope more of the early works get adapted to screen. Some of the subjects have yet to be touched even these many decades later. Mind blowing stuff! Timeless!

Moonage Daydream looks fantastic. A cinematic tribute to Bowie that captures his essence in a profound way using documentary audio, video, wrapped in created psychedelic content. Plan to watch this weekend.
