I was disheartened when Twitter changed. It used to be my most successful social media account. Okay, I only had 900-something followers, but most of my posts got some traction and I made a handful of friends there.

I still have one account on X to do with vintage computers because not everyone left. That lets me see what else is happening over there, too.

I’ve never got far with the alternative platforms. It seems all the people I knew have scattered.

I too still have X (what an odd name) but a few weeks ago deleted it from my phone. I surface it occasionally but I'm really not encouraged or empowered by this app, and my community there has dispersed. Meh.

Thanks for leaving a comment AJ!

My shut-off switch is very quick at reading people's annoying, negative, moronic behavior.

I agree with you on what's all happening in social media and I can't see the corruption in communication disappearing in the future.

I don't let myself waste time on anything that doesn't have creative positive energy.

Yes, after January 20th, should hold the worlds attention on how and what our governments can do for Canada's sovereignty.

Claudette , you mentioned an unpublished novel Strummed Secrets . How close are you to completing the book ? The title sounds very interesting.

Best Regards

Like the "shut-off switch" idea - very clever! 😀

Thank you Roland for reading and commenting, I'm happy you're enjoying my words.

My novel began years ago and is in an on-again-off-again circumstance - to write romantic, erotic fiction I need absolute privacy, solitude and quiet, which is not available in my house in Etobicoke. I work in an open concept space. So, next stint in Oakville at mom's house where I occupy my sister's 'room with a door' will hopefully see the end of this story. I'm anxious to get it finished and out into the world. Stay tuned. 😊
