You may know me from 🧵. I’m here now. I like data and facts. A lot. Opinions are fine, data driven analysis is way better. I’m hopeful always. Nuance is essential, because our lived experience is rarely binary. Cocktails🍸, whiskey & rum🥃, wine🍷.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat. I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

Seeing pictures of snow-covered New Orleans inspires me to make a classic NOLA cocktail tonight. A Brandy Crusta—brandy, lemon, dry curaçao, and a whisper of maraschino liqueur. Shaken, poured into a coupe, with a sugar crusted rim doing double duty: both a bit of sweet and a snow-y garnish!

I have struggled with how to respond to Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook's descent into toxic masculinity and Neo-Nazi madness. While I have thought about quitting Facebook, I find great value in the connections and friends I have here, and it doesn't seem fair that I should lose that 1/4

One of the major lessons learned from the last year, especially from the presidential campaign, is that legacy media is broken. New media ventures are the way forward. I’m excited to see what @contrariannews.bsky.social will offer in this new era, at the vanguard of this wave of new media.
