I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future.

Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.

I hate cold callers. It used to always be for PPI, then it was the have-you-been-involved-in-an-accident-that-wasn't-your-fault claims,

now its just a constant influx of the Trump administration phoning to tell me about their latest top secret war plans if I buy a Tesla. JUST GO AWAY!

Does anyone know what a “tweet” is called on bluesky? Does it have its own nomenclature I should be using?

Last month I did a little experiment.

I wanted to see how the exact same post would perform on both X (Twitter) and Bluesky.

The results were...interesting...

Not sure why everyone is so surprised by what's happening to the USA.

We've all seen what happened to Hill Valley in BTTF2.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social You're basically referring to "making lemonade from lemons".

So not a fan of @fesshole.bsky.social tweets where someone provides their occupation and age as some sort of shock tactic to a childish antic.

Not sure why I hate it and I'm a software engineer in my late 40s.

Broandband outage last couple of days.

4G SIM router giving me 8Mb download speeds. Why would anyone want to return to the "good old days"!?

First post. My transition to here is a bit like when the nightclub Cream went a bit shit in the mid 90s and I found Voodoo at Le Bateau.
