Hey, my 80's Babies - A couple years ago, I was going through a... low patch, and I reached into the past to reconnect with myself. And here's what I did. With the help from 3 of the old DJs from the station, this is how I got my groove back. 21 Pieces of My Heart. 🧵Some Threads. Starting here.🧵

My best friend just found that her husband has a cancerous tumor in his kidney and he's having it removed on the 5th. She forgot to tell me whether it spread or is localized. She's in South Africa, so communicating through WhatsApp means conversations can be spotty. My heart hurts.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Rumor is that Trump is going to use DHS, ICE, and other Federal agents to hang out at polling stations and try to intimidate peple. What's a good way for you average citizen to send the signal that will PROTECT anyone who is afraid?

Just talked to my best friend, in South Africa, using OUR ACTUAL VOICES, for the first time in argle bargle many years. She still has the Winnie the Pooh Afrikaner accent she picked up after she moved there, and I feel like I want to cry but I'm too happy to.

Unfortunately, now I have to try to go to sleep, because I have to teach tomorrow, but I'm so keyed up I feel like I'm going to need high-grade heroin just to nod off because FUCK I've missed her SO MUCH and just... Dear Self: Remember this moment. Always.

Catching up on this @doctorow.pluralistic.net interview. The first third explains the AI bubble as a shell game. I'm usually tilting my head like a confused dog when the stock market comes up, but this was straightforward enough that I'm a dog who's realized we're boned.

Today this feels much more like a responsibility than a privilege. Everyone MUST vote. Everyone also must be realistic. A LOT of people have committed capital crimes for two years. Odds aren't good they'll willingly give up power. And they own our military. Vote. But also prepare for Day 29.

The hackers weren't brilliant. They were patient. They waited until the people who close doors had been fired by Kash Patel, then they walked in. That's not a hack. That's a business model. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Let’s be clear: The President is advocating for an attack on 10+ million U.S. residents in two of America’s largest cities. This is not normal. None of this is. And we will continue to remind folks of that every day.

Some things I wish I had known when I was a new writer: Being accepted by traditional publishers has less to do with skill than whether they think they can sell it. Just because publishers aren’t ready for a story doesn’t mean readers aren’t. Writing the book is the easy part. 🧵

Working my way through Dean Koontz' catalog. Stephen King has always been my favorite author, but Koontz' use of metaphor is *breath-taking*.
