After 6 years, I've finally managed to clear off my #FollowBacklog! I'd like to thank Elon for driving enough people off this platform, & revealing which remaining 1s are losers enough to pay for verification, that I was finally able to get back down below the #FollowLimit again!
Bill Zeliff was a representative before I started paying attention to politics (I would’ve been 5 when he left office), but from looking at his Wikipedia page, it looks like his support for @IssueOneReform was a good thing; I’ll add that account to my #FollowBacklog for later.
Dang it, @HeatherGautney took her account private just as I got to her spot in my #FollowBacklog… hopefully she stays in my Biden-Sanders Taskforces list; I was retweeting stuff I saw from her there just the other day: https://x.com/i/lists/1260609745372749824

July followings-list cleaning update: backslid a bit more between last month's cleaning and this one; my #FollowBacklog is now reduced from 570 to 556 accounts, and my #Unfollowed list is now up to 799 accounts: https://x.com/i/lists/973949904849723399
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde's handle is @Mebudde if any of you want to follow her (which I coincidentally did just a few weeks ago; apparently her spot in my #FollowBacklog came at just the right moment)
June followings-list cleaning update: ok so I actually kinda backslid between last month's cleaning and this one; still, though, I reduced my #FollowBacklog from 563 to 545 accounts, and my #Unfollowed list is now up to 785 accounts: https://x.com/i/lists/973949904849723399

So I get to the point where @TessArielWright was in my #FollowBacklog and find that she's currently suspended... #UnbanTessArielWright #FreeTessArielWright
April followings-list cleaning update: slow month this month; #FollowBacklog reduced from 523 to 514 accounts; my #Unfollowed list is now up to 738 accounts: https://x.com/cooljeanius/lists/temporarily-unfollowed
Need to add @FTBandFTR to both my #FollowBacklog and my list of good bots...
Reminder that you can always just ask me what your position in my #FollowBacklog is, instead of unfollowing me because I haven't been able to follow you back yet

February followings-list cleaning update: #FollowBacklog reduced from 522 to 501 accounts (I'm up to the point in it where I'm at accounts I added during last year's E3); my #Unfollowed list is now up to 716 accounts: https://x.com/cooljeanius/lists/temporarily-unfollowed
adding @DaybookJobs to my #FollowBacklog
Was confused why I had @NHLP on my #FollowBacklog until I remembered that they're the National Housing Law Project and that the New Hampshire Libertarian Party flips the acronym around and puts it as @LPNH
Checking #ChappelleEndorsesYang made me surprised to realize I'm not actually following @AndrewYang yet… I thought I'd already gotten up to his spot in my #FollowBacklog but since I'm still not following & he's no longer on it… maybe I accidentally removed him w/out following?
January followings-list cleaning update: #FollowBacklog reduced from 494 to 465 accounts; my #Unfollowed list is now up to 695 accounts: https://x.com/cooljeanius/lists/temporarily-unfollowed
Account maintenance TODO list for the New Year:
- do some unfollowing with @unfollowerstats to make room for people from the #FollowBacklog
- take new #EricsPoliticalMailers screenshots
- update @cooljeaniusbot
- I feel like there was a 4th one but it just slipped my mind...
Arundhati Roy is good. Unfortunately, upon searching for her on Twitter, most of the people talking about her are Hindutva nationalists, & it appears she doesn't have her own acct to respond to them. Anyone got recs for good accts to add to my #FollowBacklog that're on her side?
actually, screw that (the "once I'm back home" bit); I'm doing that now. Sorry, people in my #FollowBacklog, I might skip ahead and put some other accounts ahead of you while I'm away this week...
Dang, the #StopDontShop campaign ended and deleted their account before I could get to the point in my #FollowBacklog where it became time to follow them... (i.e. now)
reminder that you can always find your position in said #FollowBacklog by just asking me
December followings-list cleaning update: #FollowBacklog reduced from… uh, darn, the automatic renumbering lost the old number that I started at… anyways, now that I'm done, it's down to 393 accounts, & my #Unfollowed list is now up to 662 accounts:...
Aw man, what happened to the Mike Gravel account? I finally got up to my entry for it in my #FollowBacklog and now it seems to have disappeared...
.@MMineiro_CNS is doing good live coverage of the Roger Stone trial; reminder to myself to add her to my #FollowBacklog: https://mobile.twitter.com/MMineiro_CNS?p=s
I've made so many additions to my #FollowBacklog today... would like to highlight @MattGerdingNH and @JCPxDESIGNS in particular; give them a follow for me, since I can't (yet)!
November followings-list cleaning update: #FollowBacklog reduced from 363 accounts to... you know what, I really need to put this in some sort of document format that automatically renumbers for me; having to do it manually is getting to be too much of a pain...
...ok, I think I finally made it thru the portion of my #FollowBacklog dedicated to accounts discovered at March's New England DSA regional pre-conference hosted by @Boston_DSA; I should finally be able to start making chronological progress thru the list again now...
