There is much I could write about men’s hockey. If you want to know the character of a man, all you have to do is wait for him to tell you who he truly is. Jack Hughes (of the New Jersey Devils and also of the Gold Winning US Men’s Olympic hockey team) has been…
I think we’re all looking for the next thing to watch while we work, clean, walk on the treadmill. I gave Apple+’s The Buccaneers a shot, not knowing much about it. Based on what I did know, it should have ticked every box I enjoy. I am a fan of giving every project a solid…
I made a promise at the start of the strikes not to give any struck companies promotion for free. And so much has happened, but I’ve been content to write drafts and save them. Something that’s happened online this week requires a comment (without talking about the movie itself). The silence from a lot of…
I’ve previously written two versions of this post, talking about Twitter’s downfall and my thoughts on successors. So I thought I’d go through the good, the bad, and the buggy. In the last week alone, Elon rate limited Twitter, made it so that you had to login to see tweets – which resulted in Google…
Twitter’s taken a sharp backslide in the time since Elon Musk purchased the social media platform. Elon immediately began firing staff, trying to backpedal on Twitter policies – and lost a lot of advertisers in the process. The latest in this series of missteps was entirely preventable, and frankly, it’s hilarious. Twitter’s had a sharp…
This post is about something personal, so it’s taken me time to find the words. For that I apologize. As most of you know, I’m a queer woman, part of the LGBTQ community. I’m bisexual, and I’m a hockey fan. Those are two things that don’t often mesh well. As a whole, the NHL tries…
It was only a month and a half ago I blogged about what was going on with Twitter and what was next on the horizon with social media. While I think we all predicted that Twitter was on the decline, I don’t think that anyone would have foreseen just how quickly things would devolve –…
With Elon in charge of Twitter, a lot of changes have happened in the last week. He decided that anyone who wanted to be verified could pay $8 a month, defeating the purpose of verification. Elon fired employees who are responsible for things like accessiblity. He fired the ethics team, who had focused on the…
I spend a lot of my time on TikTok, and I’ve found myself on the outskirts of BookTok. Mostly because I was looking for more books with Latine characters. My FYP (For You Page, for the uninitiated) has been taken up with discussion about romance author Kate Stewart, and criticism after it was discovered that…
Every so often, I feel like I have to step forward to talk about the concept of collateral damage. Because there are a lot of people who proudly describe themselves as progressives, leftists… or just not being conservatives – that seem to have zero concept of what collateral damages are. I remember people I thought…
