That sounds exciting and scary simultaneously, sending great energy your way for you to get some positive outcomes from the experience.

scary, going in expecting to see something safe/PG only to end up seeing something Katy Perry related.

They both look so punchable and after learning about them, they are in fact incredibly punchable. Going to read it now.

I would agree it will be closer than 2020, however unless the GOP have some kind of October surprise up their sleeve. Their base has not been growing, in fact, it's been slowly shrinking. That alone is going to hurt them and cost them.

I still refuse to freak out when the polling continues to not match the reality of what happens at the ballot box which has even continued to be true even this year with the special elections that have occurred.

I'm just here to talk to and learn from other people without having to deal with constant hate or misinformation. I get the sense that that's why a lot of other people are here as well. They need to learn from what they can from that. What worked elsewhere probably won't work here. In a good way.

I fully agree, it's not something I'd want to see. Been thinking a lot about the possible consequences since I posted that.

I wonder if there would be any benefit to being able to see if two people replying to each other are mutuals or not in a thread. It could give a visual clue to someone that maybe jumping into it may not be beneficial? Just a random thought.

If the AI has access to all the stored information on us such as Google, Apple, Meta/Facebook, Twitter, and even our grocery store shoppers' cards etc. In a very scary way, could it then have a good idea of who we are then?

I'm annoying because I find comfort in sarcasm, it wouldn't have been a problem if I had been born in the UK though. Good article btw!

As long as the experience stays similar across devices. I played around with Mastodon when Twitter started going downhill and I somehow ended up on different servers and followed about the same people on each one yet the replies to people's posts changed depending on which server I was on at times.

There has to be something that people are consuming like lead that is making "us" collectively dumber as a society that we are not aware of yet. it's just probably my hopeful thinking at this point though that people can't really be this bad on their own.

I was going to say the same thing, airports are like a void. Time and space exist in their universe when it comes to airports. It is always morning and 5:00 pm at the same time within an airport.

There is a growing trend of people getting a taste of the management world and moving back to the individual contributor side of things. So you always have the option of moving back into more hands-on roles in the future if you really wanted. You would be far from the only one.

I remember when the police knocked over an older gentleman protesting in my city of Buffalo during that time that became national news. Our mayor at first came out against the police in the most gentle way possible and something happened behind the scenes that scared the heck out of him.
