Gregory's Server@amaditalks @max @molly0xfff I understand that change is difficult (and almost impossible for lots of people), but you can’t keep in touch with people outside of twitter?

@amaditalks @maggiejk @max @molly0xfff Yes, this. Exactly as you said! For marginalized communities especially, it's been devastating and grief-filled. And Grief isn't something that goes away over time. (The box we hold it in grows larger over time, but the grief ball stays the same. That loss is real). Communities have been shredded. Yes, some of us are trying to rebuild here, but others are scrambling just as Lovelace described. There isn't an easy answer on how to rebuild. |
@maggiejk @max @molly0xfff that would require alternative connections which people largely did not cultivate because they were having regular daily conversations on Twitter, either publicly or in direct messages. People spent weeks scrambling to create those alternative connections when things started tanking, and they weren’t always made.
