if you'd like to chat, links are in bio—or just send me an email.

drop in, check out how the bluesky mods are handling The Situation, eyeroll, log back out again.

I suppose my overall take on this platform is that it struggles in the unresolved tension between a technolibertarian founding impulse and a confusing, emergent imperative to nurture, protect and respond to the communities that have made a home here along the way, almost accidentally.
