I’m starting this Substack is a placeholder for my shortform writing in case Twitter worst-case scenarios are realized. Or perhaps that should read “best-case scenarios”. I’m not sure if Twitter is life-improving or life-crushing.
I’m not planning on updating this regularly until or unless Twitter really does die or other major circumstances change. It seems like a better hedge than any platform that involves something called “tooting”. You can continue to find my longform writing at FiveThirtyEight.
Dude, twitter isn't going to collapse. Or maybe it will, but c'mon. You don't post about Luxor going bankrupt or anything, this is the same shit. Looking forward to seeing your Twitter takes until the world ends in 2029.
