post from So long, Twitter API, and thanks for all the fish
Well, it’s come to this. Twitter is burning, a billionaire owes money, an API will soon get lobotomized, so Bridgyβ€˜s Twitter support will die within the month. Granaryβ€˜s and twitter-atom too. The Twitter API may now be effectively unmaintained, but they still managed to find an …

post from Let’s Practice a Love Ethic
Overall, things have felt a bit better since my post last August. I still have plenty of times where I feel discouraged, isolated, and hopeless as our so-called leaders and institutions abandon us during an ongoing pandemic for the pursuit of profits. However, I have been trying …
