Replying to @Alric
I’ll close with a quote I try to hold in my heart, imperfectly.
“To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.”

"Very enthusiastic about a lot of things."
- It looks like the ban is permanent for Tweetbot, et al. So I’m taking a break from Twitter. 🤷 I’ll miss interacting with authors & niche celebrities. Oh well. For IRL friends, I’m rarely on Mastodon (in bio) – more active on LinkedIn, Be Real, Peloton. Hit me up for lunch. 👋
- I’d almost forgotten how much I dislike using the official Twitter app. I hope they fix 3rd party app auth soon. I just want to see my friends tweets in chronological order. I’ll pay, but I don’t want another algorithm feeding me distractions. Give me back my Tweetbot. 😥
- I started playing with Peloton on my non-lifting days. I’ve never liked group classes, but I am enjoying some of these instructors, especially Tunde. It’s nice to just let her tell me what to do, sometimes. If you’re on Peloton, let’s be friends; send me your username.
- I’m sitting here with tears streaming down my face… This NY Times profile of children who died from gun violence. It’s just too much. The sardonic little Girl Scout who loved Minecraft… damn it. I recommend reading it, but brace yourself.
