if somebody stepped out of a fucking time machine right in front of me three years ago and told me this is how the landscape of the internet would look in 2022, that twitter would be dead and tumblr would be booming, i woulda called animal control

As satisfying as it is to see musk crash and burn, the fact that he's taking a resource that so many people genuinely depend on down with him is genuinely infuriating.

Like, don't get me wrong I personally kinda hate Twitter. It's full up of nasty alt right trolls.

But there are also a ton if people who use it's fairly open format to advertise and network in ways that simply didn't exist before. It has become a very "professional" sphere for many.

The world of authors and publications in particular is HIGHLY dependent on twitter, something I see regularly due to some slight connections I have to that world. Friends who are published often get their first nibble of interest from agents and pubs and promotional opportunities through tweeting/retweeting, and following the right people.

If twitter fully dies, a lot of people are going to lose something that has made itself a huge part of their survival

Lol my large and handsome pig didn’t find Anything of interest in your yard

God gifts us with yet again another banger
