Why have I written on my blog less? It's because I write on social media more. I sometimes write threads that I bookmark because I think that I may turn them into blog posts but I rarely do. Mostly I want to link to them instead of writing the same thing again on a future occasion. But Mastodon, while it has some good things about it, has a very bad search capability. So here is a list of whatever I've thought I might want to look for again, categorized by subject.
There are about 120 of these from February 2024 - August 2026. I probably should stop writing about specifically US politics so much, but it's what other people tend to be conversing about.
