(1 of 2) I'm turning 40 soon
I've been thinking a lot about myself, where I've come from, and where I'm going. I originally created this account to be able to express myself, but I feel as though I've fallen short on that goal. I also had the childish dream of becoming popular due to my (imagined) great insight or intelligence. I fear instead it became yet another feed to doomscroll. I think what I really want out of this is to reconnect with a past version of myself.
I'm well known as a gay bear IRL, but I did not want a bear fursona. Why? It felt too performative. My bear persona has given me a community to validate my physical body, and to find kinship, but I always presented a version of myself that was catered to my audience.

One step closer towards #DigitalAutonomy: I just started the process of migrating my domain from a US provider to one within the EU (NL). Keeping my fingers crossed everything will work out 🤞🏻😅
Waiting now to *finally* set up my #Wordpress blog so I can resume my blogging mojo for #longform pieces, although it's going to be weird. Don't know, just yet, what I'll be blogging about, so it's going to be interesting to see if I can find my own blogging voice & style once again.

For those more versed than me in long form writing, is Medium any good anymore? There is a promise of good writing, and yes there are a few gems in the slop, but man it’s repetitive, seemingly ai-written, drivel sometimes. Just me? I joined and wrote a few posts, to get the vibe, but the stuff that gets eyeballs seems, well, subpar. Thoughts? #LongForm #Writing #Blog #Medium

Long-form read: A community's elders made a promise over a millennium ago so the community can survive, but keeping that promise is dwindling the community's numbers.

New Full Bleed pod posted. I spoke to David Wolf from @TheGuardian 's Long Read, both the section of the newspaper, and the print magazine, which functions as a sort of Greatest Hits package. We talked about journalism, AI (yes, we did), why the magazine exists and what it means to The Guardian and to its readership. But mostly we talked about the joy of reading. At the link below or wherever you listen to podcasts.
