Probably one of the trickiest things I'm trying to figure out as I launch my upcoming project is whether I want to publicly use my name or whether I want to create a pen name and stay anonymous, at least up to a point.
Had a bad day on Twitter and had some thoughts along the lines of
1. A solid 10-15% of the human population is very stupid. Everyone is at least a little stupid but some people are really stupid.
2. I need to still be able to reach these people though, because I still need these people to get involved with labour organizing too.
3. I must deal with stupid people without being hyper-vindictive
4. This is very fucking hard and I wish I did not have to do this this way.
shoutout to @pojntfx:
https://fe.soapbox.pub/ is the best in-browser wrapper for Mastodon I've yet seen, and it looks nearly identical to Twitter (better threading, better DM's, better profiles)
give it a try y'all!
