No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.
On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.
The unsupported use case of Bix Frankonis’ disordered, surplus, mediocre midlife in St. Johns, Oregon—now with climate crisis, rising fascism, increasing disability, eventual poverty, and inevitable death.
Read the current manifesto. (And the followup.)
Rules: no fear, no hate, no thoughtless bullshit, and no nazis.

Late last month I was thinking about Dunbar’s number because I’m reading The Human Swarm by Mark W. Moffett, and since I think a lot about social media I decided that someone should start a new social site where you can only follow 150 people. (Ideally it would located at dun.bar, which appears to be a costly “premium” domain.) You’d also be able to browse a feed of the people followed by the people you follow, but if you wanted to actually, directly follow someone and you were already at the 150-user cap, you’d have to drop someone first. (As it is, on Twitter my follows are barely above 170.) I legitimately can’t tell if I’m serious, half-serious, or joking.
