Controversial opinion, but I prefer Reddit refugees to Twitter refugees.
Reddit was never about clout. No one really follows anyone on reddit. Reddit is barely for posting, as most people are lurkers. Like Tumblr, it doesn't really have a character limit, so users can just go nuts in the discourse. And sure. It can be just bad discourse.
But at least it's not fucking truncated like Twitter and TikTok discourse. At least you can have actual discourse on reddit.
Reddit was also about having a very niche specific weird interest and sharing it with other weirdos and fans of that niche very specific interest.
How is that so dissimilar from Tumblr?
I welcome them more than I welcome Twitter users.
Hell yeah the US just gave like 8 billion dollars in funding to intercity passenger rail. Including some HIGH SPEED RAIL?!?!?!??
can't overstate how massive this is, i used to work in rail and US trains were so pitifully underfunded that my employer wouldn't even bid on those projects because it wasn't worth the time. This is actually putting us on the level of other countries that invest in transportation as a public service??? And 8 billion? Like this could actually really make some massive change.
This is the first use of my art degree

Local Kolibri drinks the grimace shake
Today, I’m in the Lands Between at the famous Prawn Shack. Let’s see what the locals get a taste of - mmm! Marika’s tits. That’s delicious. Amazing. And all these prawn are locally sourced? Dastardly buggers, they are. Doubt those were easy to get… Look at the size of em! Brilliant.
