Exciting that you'll be focusing on longer projects! And I'm glad you're off Twitter -- even if other places are their own unique brand of slop, idiocy, and exhibitionism.
I might eventually do that. Frankly, a potential journalism employer expressed discomfort with some of my older tweets, and that was another last straw for me. Nazis and tech fascists on one side, liberal censors on the other.
Hey Jacob. Longtime rubbernecker at your crypto beat stuff as well as your podcast appearances. Happy to have you here for as long as you wanna be here. Tagged you in my last essay, hope a few of my readers gave you a look.
Greetings from Germany and more power to you! I quit almost everything "social" media but Twitter is still the last holdout with a curated list of good indie journos and writers like yourself. I sleep over it and may follow your lead! Meantime: good luck on the big projects and do NOT forget to read GOOD FICTION, new, old or classic. "Infinite Jest" hits 30 years next month! HINT HINT :)
Congratulations on quitting Twitter, and it is interesting you do not call it X.
I just recently joined Substack and like it a lot better. X makes me angry every day. Loved Gilded Rage and look forward to your next book.

have you considered not formally deactivating your account though, so that your old tweets are still searchable?

The psychic warfare thunderdome of “The Everything App” was fun until it wasn’t
Have you considered Mastodon?
