Anyhow, 👋🏻.

I’m Bi, Liberal (tho closer to the Center), into anime, a Weather geek, and into the business of entertainment (Radio/TV/Film) not just into Entertainment itself.
#Introduction

So yeah folks, I’m basically gonna have this be the backup plan if that certain someone truly kills Twitter. This looks a lot better and more comfy than Mastodon even if it’s not perfect. Still, hate it came to this…

Back to the OId School...

So the only way to use Twitter now is if you download the OldTwitter extension.
LOLOLOLOLOL.

Or, at the very least, hiccupping big time...

Did I say everyone was holding their own? Yeah, the Elephant's cracked under the pressure it looks like.
The Whale looks like it has too.
BlueSky and CoSo looks like are the big winners of everything...

All the Twitter alternatives-CoSo, Spoutible, Mastodon, BlueSky-all are actually holding up pretty well today all things considered.
The servers are obviously getting a good straining, but everybody's holding up nicely.
Truly impressive stuff...

So it seems Elon asked his visa-locked techies to mess with the most sensitive part of the internals of Twitter and like most times you mess with things you shouldn't, it backfired.
The O'Jays were right, Money CAN drive some people out of their mind...

Hope Linda Yaccarino has a Happy 4th of July weekend.
Sometime tells me she's going to need something harder than Tea...

Real world consequences to Elon sticking his hand in the internal cookie jar:
This weekend is Anime Expo, THE biggest Anime Convention of the year.
Things are most certainly announced/unveiled there.
You wanna know a big social media platform for the anime industry AND for Anime fans like myself?
Yep, you guessed it, Twitter.

When things are going great!
...or when in fact its more about you trying to patch up after you screwed around with website internals:

Of all the escape rooms, CoSo looks to be the one that feels the most...alive it seems.
Maybe it's because the firehose is flowing nicely here...

Well, I am everywhere. I just hope I don't have to juggle these around for too long... https://kevindgrussing.godaddysites.com/

Bills not paid, API screwed with.
Either way, what a damn mess...

He finally went ahead and did it. Shoutout to that NBCUniversal exec who thought it'd be a fun thing to pal with Elon.
Hope it was worth leaving a real media company!
Well, this is why I had backups ready, so hello again Cosmonauts...

How do you make Sepp Blatter look good in a news cycle?
But man, if you needed to do anything more to make me not want to watch a second of this World Cup awarded thru bribery in a country where if I lived as myself I’d be literally killed…

America Online.
AT&T.
When it comes to disastrous mergers, Time Warner just can’t stop.
Discovery is next.

Sigma - Changing feat. Paloma Faith
🎵Everything is Changing
And I've been here for too long
Going through the same things
I've been hurt and done wrong, got to move on, say
I, I can't do this anymore
If everything is Changing
Then I know, yeah, gotta let
Go, oh-oh, go, oh-oh, oh
Go, oh-oh, go, oh-oh, oh-oh
Go, oh-oh, go, oh-oh, oh
Go, oh-oh, go, oh 🎵

The beauty of being everywhere means I can still keep up with things and still at least try to live the social media life.
At least, until the nest is reborn which it probably will under someone else less like Apartheid Clyde…

Twitter about to be toast because one wanted to buy it because he was pissed about it and the people running it said “Sure, okay!” because Capitalism is having a helluva century showing how one man can kill good things for no good reason or sense.
Same as it ever was…
