In light of social media leaders’ melting backbones and bending-of-the-knee to the growing irrational mob, I’ve largely removed myself from Facebook where I once put most of my writing efforts. I’ve moved to Bluesky as an alternative but I’ve long found the shortform message model anti-intellectual; how can anything seriously be discussed when you aren’t given the space to actually discuss issues in their needed complexity?
So where does that leave me? A hybrid approach, maybe. It’s been years since I wrote anything here but this provides me a platform to write in more complexity. In conjunction with Bluesky I can perhaps cross-reference efforts to regain some semblance of complex idea and philosophical observation sharing.
At the very least this site’s gotten a facelift.
