So where are we all going now Lonnie owns Twitter?

[(Anonymous)]

Tumblr.

[hey_hey_hey]

I'm waiting to see what he does with Twitter. If he requires users to post under their real names or if most of Black or liberal and/or left Twitter leaves I'm going to deactivate. Twitter is my last stop on the social media train.

I can't believe I'm going to have to figure out how fucking Discord works

Fuck Discord, man

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sticking to Dreamwidth and AO3.

Be sure to start collecting bookmarks to artists' personal websites if ya'll haven't already started because many of them are already jumping (or have jumped) ship.

[(Anonymous)]

Same place I've been, seeing as how I don't have an account.

"and when the twelfth largest company in the world controls the most awesome god damn propoganda force in the whole godless world, who knows what shit will be peddled for truth on this network?"

howard beale, network, 1976

[(Anonymous)]

thank god I never got one but

I saw somewhere on an RP comm over the weekend that a lot of twitter RPers are already talking about a mass exodus here to DW. Which, yay, fresh blood! Maybe fandom will join them! But also whew there's going to be some culture clash.

[pantswarrior]

I only started visiting Twitter on a regular basis like two years ago and I almost never post or follow anyone, just browse trending topics to laugh at ridiculousness. So I guess I'm going the same places I went before, just not Twitter.

(Basically that's Facebook for RL folks and con friends, here for older friends and fandom, a couple of Discord servers run by people I know.)

I've been sick of twitter for a long time, now. I got my account in 2009 and it was still pretty cool back then. I just followed my friends and we had some pretty confused ongoing conversations about our favourite anime/manga and TVshows. People recommended stuff and we all began mentioning each other to share our thought. It was chaotic, but fun!
Then years passed and twitter got bigger and most of my friends began using the platform differently. Some became bitter and used it mainly to retweet about political and social issues and other completely quit their personal accounts and concentrated only on their public accounts to share their writings/music/arts. Nothing bad about the last part. I love that they do that and some of them have a pretty big following now and I'm very happy for them. I just miss the "before".

I got very tired of twitter as a whole in the last 5 years or so. I've had the app on my phone for a month I think and it was so addictive and full of negativity on my TL that I swore I'd never download it again. Haven't really posted in years, now. I post only during Eurovision because my friends are all online and we do a live tweet all together then.

The only good thing now are the fanart. I just use TweedDeck and I set out lists with all the artists I follow divided in different categories (1. fanart for my main fandom and ship 3. fanart for minor fandoms 2. various visual arts and crafts) and filter the content just by images. Doing that I can just look at the fanarts/art and not listen to what people have to say. Never been happier.

I will continue to use it as long as all my favourite artist are there. I really dislike Elon Musk, but at the moment I struggle to see how him acquiring twitter will change how I personally see and interact with the platform. As long as Tweetdeck is OK I'll just like&retweet cute stuff. I'm a little worried about twitter in general... but I'm worried about the internet in general so...

[tabaqui]

Twitter for me is politics/news/space stuff, so...nowhere? My fandom lives on LJ/DW and AO3, so...I'm good.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm staying on twitter for the same reason people are still on tumblr> to actively bring the quality of the website down and making the owners lose money.

[(Anonymous)]

Who's Lonnie? Twitter won't tell me straight what's going on, only that something is and I should be very mad about it.

[(Anonymous)]

Lets put the cat in the pigeons tonight. WV might not be in The South, but what about Oklahoma? I say nah, it is a Wild West state, where the midwest meets the high plains. I don't care if its restaurants serve grits all day, OK is not The South.

[(Anonymous)]

It's marginal.

This is the thing with categories. They don't exist in nature. We invent them. There are very few categories that actually are as stark and black-and-white as we think of them. Oklahoma is Southern in some ways and not in others. It's not a core southern state but it's also not unreasonable to describe it as Southern; it's not that much less southern than Texas or Arkansas, both of which people are usually comfortable calling Southern.

[kaijinscendre]

Oklahoma is the Midwest desperately wishing they were the south.

Writing thread

[(Anonymous)]

~('-')~

Re: Writing thread

[(Anonymous)]

I used to write at night but I'm too tired now every night. Anyone else write during the day? How do you fit it in around work/family?

Re: Writing thread

[(Anonymous)]

Have you ever gone to a social media platform you abandoned years ago, and discovered a bunch of old fic you forgot about? I have. Now I gotta remember my pit of voles login and how to post on there again.

Re: Writing thread

[(Anonymous)]

How do you get inspiration back? All my voices inside me have been silenced.

Re: Writing thread

[(Anonymous)]

Always a trip being in small fandoms that get less than four new fics uploaded to AO3 each year but there's something exciting about it too. (Sometimes we're lucky if we even get one fic a year, let alone four. Heh.)

Misha Collins is not bisexual

[hey_hey_hey]

Mr. Collins set the record straight on Twitter tonight, saying he misspoke and didn't mean to co-opt the struggles of the LGBTQ+ community. He is indeed hetero and has sincerely apologized.

Re: Misha Collins is not bisexual

[(Anonymous)]

Lol. That is one hell of a misspeak.

Re: Misha Collins is not bisexual

[(Anonymous)]

If I were him, I'd have just kept telling people I was bi. That is not a fanbase you want to fuck around with. Everyone already suspected.
