the New Twitter

Yesterday afternoon, I spent a few hours purging my Instagram site. Our messages, if you’ve ever messaged me, are still there and you’ll still be able to follow me. For a long time, I’ve felt uncomfortable using Social Media; does it give more than it takes? I’m not so sure anymore… As my kids approach the age of being interested in it, I find it more and more important to focus on real friendships and real, in-person engagements when possible; go outside and ‘touch some grass’, you know? As motosocial season starts and/or as I return to in-studio work/life, I may share content to the ‘gram but at this time it was just a way for advertisements to try and reach me. No thanks.

I am giving Bluesky a try and you can find me here. It’s like Twitter (before Twitter died) and that’s because it was created by Jack Dorsey! He’s no longer a part of it - but this is microblogging at it’s finest; the user is in control of the content. I think I’ll hang out there for a little while!
