Time to spread my wings?

I suppose Jan. 1, 2025 is as good a time as ever to dip my toes back into the volatile minefield of public-facing social media by joining Bluesky. Maybe I'm looking to re-rot my brain ever since I left the Brand X website as it was getting the soul sucked out of it, but if you've read my blog enough this year, a certain terribad fanfic (that won't leave my brain no matter how hard I try to forget it) already did most of the work.

I'm not seeking any large-scale notoriety by rejoining. Hell, I'd start to get uncomfortable if my following were to climb into the double digits. Maybe I just want in on the blue wave until I inevitably start referring to the place as the "Dead Butterfly Site".

What can I say? I've always been lame like that.

BlueSky is a lot less volatile from my experience, since you're strongly encouraged to block aggressive trolls or shit-stirrers on sight. The userbase is determined to make it the opposite of Twitter.
