@researchbuzz I’ve been thinking about Corn Flakes since you posted that article about its origins.

I wish shooting a Black child was as egregious as shooting a puppy in the United States.

@timo21 I’m willing to go with that since nothing makes sense anymore.

I was told following a lot of people is a sign of inauthenticity

But I like the firehose of content

I'll wade into it and get swept away to parts unknown. Isn't that the point of social media, discovery?

And you can make a list for posters you don't want to miss

Someone says something funny... I feel like following them

Why not? Who cares? Are there magic rules here?

FUCK IT

I'M GOING TO FOLLOW EVERYONE!

(Unless you're a "both sides the same" troll/ idiot, then I'm blocking your ass)

@benroyce I think it’s rude not to follow the people that follow you. Isn’t this about mutual exchange. When a person doesn’t follow their followers seems conceited to me.

A student made a great point in an article I just read. They said they think some are confusing comfort and safety.

So, I got a text last night from my kid’s girlfriend. It said “Hello!” and I replied “Hey, how are you?” She asked if we could FaceTime. I replied “Sure!” and called her. They moved in together recently and neither have lived with a partner before. He went to a bbq with friends and was supposed to come home and make dinner. She was waiting and he called to say he was staying longer. She was crying. We talked for an hour. A secret hour.😂

@lydialurch Thanks! I’ve had a few careers, but this one means the most. The other things were about me, this is about others. Access to info and support is so important for kids. It’s an intimidating and confusing process. I wish someone had been around to help you.❤️

When all the unhoused people in the United States are moved into camps, go visit them and explain through the fence that you didn’t vote because of Gaza.

When your gay friends are stripped of their marriages, tell them you didn’t vote because you wanted to make a statement about Gaza.
