Hey new followers! 👋
This is my personal account. I sometimes post about:
- photography, books, movies
- (ex)religion, misinformation/info literacy, political extremism
- business, software, community
My day job is running a SaaS company in the devtools space.
Welcome to Bluesky. 🦋

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis
Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

One of the things I learned teaching search literacy is that search sucks because the world wide web doesn't exist anymore. The blogs that held it together with links are paywalled, big publishers paywall and don't link, the platforms users post to don't link. You're left with reddit and Wikipedia.
I need accounts like this to actually link to the story they’re citing. If I have the right link, this strikes me as an overstatement.
