Last yr I posted a farewell & deleted the app. But was that enough? “X” [#twitter] keeps setting new lows of scary awfulness.

Poll: What did you do to (or are you doing with) your account?

If you’re willing, share why. (And plz, everyone be kind, no need to shame other ppl’s choices here. We each live our own lives.)

160 years ago, in July 1863, a 4-day reign of terror descended upon NYC Black-Americans, who faced targeted violence, persecution & destruction. The riots exposed the deep-rooted racism that permeated Northern society, as Black men, women, & children were brutally attacked and subjected to horrific acts of cruelty. It was the deadliest riot in American history, but it showcased again the resilience of Black America.

Lovely day today and us nerd desk jockeys need some exercise so we went out for a walk.

A flight of steps leading up between the trees that caused us to realise we don't get enough bloody exercise.
Giles continuing on the path; more green trees under a blue sky and flowers growing beside the path, lovely.
The path leading onwards between the trees.
