Sorry for your loss…

That cozy Christmas feeling of getting your every need taken care of by an adoring fan…

I completely disagree. What this place needs is a bunch of bot accounts that endlessly spam the top comments from when whatever’s posted was on the front page last week.

Or the week before that I guess…

Thanks for the detailed break down! One thing I really do miss about old Twitter is how easily I could get a huge variety of great news sources at the same place.

There were always problems with the site, but nothing has come close to that level of centralized convenience (that I’ve found so far at least). It may just be the new normal since that same centralization makes any site vulnerable to the same fate twitter has met with. But man I sure underestimated how much worse twitter could get…

I’d love to give bluesky a shot for a bit, but their invite policy has me disappointed having waited for nearly a year now without any sign of opening up for regular users like me. Mastodon is good, tildes better (but tiny) so far, but I still miss having all the journalists who cared about journalism practices in one place…

Sigh…

Signed up months ago but still hoping to check it out. Not to pile on as another invite pest, but man twitter sure has become unusable lately!

I don’t know, I’ve been using bar keepers friend on my stainless for 13 years now (when needed) and they are fine? The pans look amazing after and they’re used every day in the home.

I don’t find any deterioration and love that I’m a scotchbrite and bar keepers friend away from new looking pans whenever I want. I’ll take a decade plus and going strong over Teflon for 6 months ten times out of ten.
