I have noticed ex(?) Labour MP Tom Watson showing up in my recommended follows a lot recently, is he trying to promote himself or do I share mutuals with his burner? Something odd afoot about this

It is a weird site all around these days

left it for the sake of:
- hermetic niceposting on mastodon
- img swapping on ig still (needs a good alternative)
- talking shit on discord with a few mates

substack is decent enough for some hot takes, I might have to reboot mine eventually, also to get into the spirit of writing my thesis (due in month and a half)

yeah too too many acc bros, some dogwhistling, some very mid cultural writing.
I like their app tho, it's a nice scrolling alternative to something like twitter, ingesting multiple medium sized texts during lunch etc.

oh yeah can i use this thread to complain about people who do emails on their mobile device

i started receiving "likes" and 👍 responses to emails
but also perfunctory replies typed by thumb on the move with minimal brain input :mad:

+ ghost is open source and substack aint
I’m still struggling to understand which bits of the functionality are free with ghost actually? The trial-upon-registration thing confused me a little and there’s no “free tier” to whatever kind of service you can get from them

Twitter post of the day from someone who just liked my post about small town independent bookshops.... NSFW

Sadly it's all porn people and only fans girls on twitter now.... I just found amusing the juxtaposition of the following

a) it engaging with me via my post about small town second hand bookshops
b) their writing about needing to be treated like a queen
c) their accompanying picture of a naked woman helpfully pulling her buttocks apart
d) loads of replies from men going, great pic I'm the one for you

I managed to set up a free account on ghost.com...
(i had to give them some card details but they say they won't charge)
