ok one more "how we do it on bluesky" re: "block, don't engage." it's not that anybody wants to tell you what to do -- it's that we collectively realized that this is what works. it works really great! zero, zero response needed. just block! don't argue at all with dickheads! try it! you'll see.

This gave me goosebumps.

“My 18-year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night.

A man came up to her and started talking to her.

A barista handed her “an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.”

How grateful I am for people who look out for other people!”

We need each other.

I’m not going to leave X just yet - I hate that sense of being driven away from a place I used to love. But after one day on here, I already know how much prefer it.

So if you see this and would be kind enough to share it to let people find me, that would be hugely appreciated. Thank you.

Turns out, it wasn’t Twitter/X we loved, it was each other.

I can’t wait to see that platform collapse.

Lock it, delete tweets if you must but post something every 2/3 weeks, even an exclamation mark, then delete it to stop your account being deleted by Twitter.

Some sage advice for when / if we decide to do away with those other accounts.
If you've recently deleted your X account, it's not too late to keep it active (even if you don't use it).

Deactivation poses security issues.
Put simply: avoid doing this. You risk your username & details being claimed by someone else.

Risks outlined here:

It's temping to delete your X account now that things have gotten so bad. However, it's not the best move for your security.
