I have a birthday soon. Don’t wish me a happy one. This year has been a SHITSHOW. One of the top 3 shittiest years of my life. So… I’m taking a mulligan on this year. So, no birthday celebration. I’ll do it next year. If you do wish me happy birthday, I’ll unfollow you.

Look at this dead behind the eyes MF who talks about how special babies are … and as a WH advisor implemented a policy to literally take babies away from their parents

Anyone have a contact at @apple who might be able to help Jason? Apple and AppleSupport: You folks can do better. You *have* done better in the past. What’s happening to your once stellar tech support?

30 minutes late for work so everyone is REALLY PISSED at me (can’t start without the full flagging crew) but it’s pissing down with rain so there’s that…😥

Today is the day I was supposed to fly to Italy with my wife to celebrate our birthdays In Florence, a a city she always wanted to go visit. But she’d rather spend the money on the other things - like a divorce. 😭

Well, after 16 years and 174,600 Tweets, these will be my last ones. I stopped tweeting actively last May (few of you noticed) but kept reading Twitter even through all of the BS of the past few months. One of the primary reasons why is Twitterrific on both iOS and macOS. 1/x

It's powerful filtering features allowed me to have a timeline mostly free of crap I didn’t want to see. This morning, the asshats at Twitter finally killed off the last vestiges of Twitterrific, I went to the website to read my feed and OMG…. 2/x

Nope. Not doing it. Not going through life wading through the fetid swamp Musk has created here. So I will no longer be involved in Twitter. If you care to follow me over on “that other site”, my link is in my bio.

One last thing. Many of you know me as a good "Explainer of Things." If you are reticent about joining "that other site" because you've heard it's too complicated, DM or email me. I'll walk you through and help you get started. It's finicky but not nearly as hard as you've heard.
