I downloaded my archive a few weeks ago. I then deleted my Twitter history. I was a bit wary at the time but, in hindsight, it was the right decision. Any content visible here helps the finances of very bad actors—Nazis, transphobes, etc.,— including this platform's owner.

Just in case you haven't seen it, Musk has given access to Twitter data not only to Weiss, but also to another notorious bigot, Abigail Shrier. Another reason to, at a minimum, significantly reduce our activity in this cesspool of a platform.

This comes from Bari Weiss's rag. It encapsulates the solipsistic, sociopathic worldview of some prominent substackers, a combination of moral egoism and naive realism: Damn the impacts on the people I report on; what matters is whether *I* am curious about the Truth about them.

He just made anger. Every day. Rising, blooming & fading like a fart. Then he died & was instantly replaced by a fleet of little replicas, farting fake fury five days a week. Creating nothing of interest or artistic value to anyone. Seriously, what an awful way to make a living.

Thinking about Rush Limbaugh and how, now that he’s dead, you never, ever hear about him. No one mentions anything he did. Because what he did had no value. It contributed nothing worthwhile to the culture. Nothing of lasting value.
