Most people don't watch cable news for three to four hours a day.

Most of us don't pump Fox News and/or Mark Levin over the speakers in our office for 8-10 hours a day. We actually have to read to learn about what's really happening rather than what conspiracy theorists claim is happening.

Twitter is becoming unusable.  Half of my "For You" is Elon tweets, a quarter is similar content, and if I'm lucky a quarter might be some Marquette related content.  If I search for something, completely unrelated content pops up unless I sort by latest.  The last few days I have been unable to upload video like I've done for years because the frame rate is too high.

Since the election several Twitter accounts (non-political accounts) have reported losing thousands of followers.  I don't know if bots are being purged or if people are just sick of what Twitter has become.

Anyway, I'm curious if anyone has tried Blue Sky or Threads as a Twitter alternative and if you have which you prefer?  My problem with Blue Sky used to be that they didn't have video but that has now been addressed.  Threads is ok but doesn't seem as straight forward as Blue Sky.

I hear Elon might buy MSNBC and CNN.

I've started a Marquette Basketball, Big East Basketball, and College Basketball list here but it's a work in progress.

I've added several accounts to the Big East list.  Alot of the Big East fan-run twitter accounts are popping up over there. 

Marquette seems to have the largest presence so far.

Oh, I do, too, but he's definitely a rabble rouser.  That's why we need more Big East, so he can keep making Xavier and Providence fans mad
