They’re impersonating you and implicitly claiming your endorsement. That’s not an β€œoopsie”

I am horrified you were subjected to this.

I’m trying to imagine why he did this. To serve what end? I can’t think of a single legitimate reason. It’s premeditated cruelty evidently for his own self-gratification.

Take care. Thank you for sharing this. It couldn’t have been easy.

There are people who consider people bad when they do bad things

And there are people who consider people β€œbad” because of who they are and how poor and/or disabled they are

These are not the same thing

…and then it wasn’t great. β€œActually” culture became gotcha culture. Trolling, always there, grew dominant, fed by bots. I blocked & blocked (eventually >100k) & posted less & less, then stopped, then disabled my account, then just deleted it in disgust

But those early years bring fond memories

19y ago today I joined Twitter and spent months fascinated by how the feed went by faster than you could keep up, so unlike forums, blogs, LJ etc. For years it was great, weird, informative, newsy, horrible at times…

Strongly encourage all academics, novelists, reporters, bloggers, whatever to just email this account and state that you want to opt out of this idiocy.

Overload them with emails and make them regret they ever tried this shit.

we could’ve had a taco truck on every corner

I mean I can’t walk to the corner but it would’ve been great

I’ve rewatched the season straight through 7 or 8 times, each time noticing new things, each time happy-crying through the last episode. The writing, the characters, the cast, the music, the direction, I savor all of it. Including β€œSanctuary fucking Moon”

As an editor, the last thing I need is a pattern matcher going through changing the text. It just in the way and makes my job harder.

β€œYou need to learn AI or else” really sounds like…

i am asking yet again how it is legal for a company to send me a letter saying "sorry somebody stole all your personal information from us and now they have all of your personal information. sucks to be you! bye!" and then they receive no consequences and it happens again a week later

The "e" in "electronic" is for "evidence."
