I wondered if the #Twitter trademark was up for grabs. It's got all that brand recognition built in to the name, but no one is using it... yet www.pcmag.com/news/twitter...
Twitter.New Aims to Revive the Social Media Platform. Will Elon Musk Allow It?
Two lawyers are petitioning to cancel X's hold on the Twitter name via Operation Bluebird.

A few folks gathered in the cold Saturday to protest #redistricting in #indiana, but today is the day that really counts. The full senate is planning to vote today at 1:30 to vote on the new maps.

Call and email your state senators if you care about #democracy in Indiana

Outside Monday's senate committee meeting on #redistricting in #indiana. Over 100 people signed up to testify against it.
The full senate will likely vote on the new #map Thursday. This would be the time to call and email your state senator if you care about #democracy Indiana.

Attended #rally against #indiana #midcycleredistricting on lunch break. I guestimate around 700-ish #Hoosiers to voicing opposition to #gerrymandering . Not bad for a post holiday Monday midday with only few days notice that the legislature is pushing #redistricting again this week.

#Thankful to be exploring under a city today. Which city? Maybe yours. What's that sound underneath your feet?

I was not feeling well over the weekend. But Sunday morning I found a free sample of Vivarin in the back of my medicine cabinet that expired in 1997, and that helped.

I'm still alive lol

We've gotten so used to getting information from internet and cable, if we don't hear yay-rah my person/narrative or boo-hiss their person/narrative, we perceive it as #bias against "us." But if we are hearing yay rah boo hiss, these aren't #journalists + this isn't #news. #medialiteracy #mediabias

Remember when #ElectionSeason was only the 2 months B4 an #election, then people would go back to keeping things running + the general public would forget about #PoliticalParties
for 2-4 years?

This one's going on year 6 or more. It's not healthy for the #government, #society or individuals.

I can tell I've been spending too much time formatting because I dreamt I got my printed book back and all my layers were separate pieces glued to the pages lol

But I think that phase should be done now and I can hopefully get back to actually #writing some new stuff.

The best way to consume disturbing, dirty #scifi #horror #smut #stories is by listening to them. The #audiobook of Cringetastic Content is available now!

My favorite sign today. The woman hand drew this reference to the 1988 movie They Live!
