I have a good friend who was banned from the bird app as a condition of Elon's purchase several months ago. Yesterday he gets a call from an unrecognized number in San Francisco. The call went something like this...
"We're willing to reinstate your account with once condition- you agree not to post disparaging tweets about Mr. Musk."
"Yeah that's not something I'm willing to agree to. No thanks."
(It's astounding to me that anyone believes the things this man says anymore.) #musk
So just thinking about how silly my thoughts are sometimes. I have lost 40 lbs in the last few months by working my ass off- eating well & moving consistently. Instead of just accepting that for the tremendous accomplishment it is, I also find myself feeling embarrassed. I'm a short woman, so I keep thinking, "Will people hear that number and be disgusted that I had that much to lose to begin with?" or "Will people be aghast that I've lost so much, and I'm still not at a healthy weight?"
Such a pretty #Indiana evening tonight. Now off to bed to get up early for the lunar eclipse and to #vote #CoSoPhotography
We were able to enjoy a pretty evening in #Indianapolis yesterday while waiting in line for a concert

I've been here a few days now, and I'm loving it. I never really introduced myself though- so here goes. I work to improve our processes & systems as a call center manager at a specialty pharmacy. In my down time I'm trying be healthier- eating better and moving more. I'm a mom of three- 1 in the workforce, 1 about to graduate high school, and 1 in elementary. I love reading, watching sci-fi & fantasy, and going to a many concerts as I can afford. I'm super introverty. #CoSoIntroductions
Lol. I just remembered my dream from last night. I was living in Chicago and dating Albert Hammond Jr. We would meet up on the "L" to head to our date spots. Here's one of his songs for anyone unfamiliar.
@voltronic This. This. This. If you want Twitter; please go be there. Do not try and turn this place into… that. It isn’t. It won’t ever be. Just enjoy it for the wonderful, creative, awesome space that it is! I totally get it’s hard to come off the rage machine. We’ve all been on it for so long. There are things to “fight” for, and against, but find productive ways to fight for the cause, not just screaming into the void online. Instead of what makes you angry, share with us what gives you joy.
I will keep saying this: CoSo is not Twitter. Your toots are not going to go viral. There is no algorithm pumping up controversial content. There are no trending hashtags. This is your chance to change how you interact with people online. It's your chance to reclaim a humanity which social media giants seek to extirpate.
Sucker for broken people. Fluent in silence and retweets. Life-long nerd.
