I’ve been shopping around for a new travel bag, and I’d pretty much decided on the Tortuga Setout Backpack… then I read this article and was definitely sold:
Tortuga’s team is distributed, meaning that everyone sets their own hours and chooses where to live and work. In effect, that means that as long as they have access to Wi-Fi, Team Tortuga can travel nonstop.
Now the only question is whether I can get it before the Grand Meetup in late September. Living in Australia is great until you need to buy things on the internet 😭
To paraphrase this article, it’s far less likely that future society will be reading my tweets to gain insight into who I was, than it is that some asshole will trawl through my Twitter feed to find some tweet where I sounded like a jerk. So I’ve deleted about 63,000 tweets, leaving only the last 12 months, and every month I’ll delete another 30 days worth.
I’m not leaving Twitter just yet, but it won’t be such a big deal anymore if I have to.
Liberating.
edit: I left.
edit2: And then Alex Jones was asked to leave, and I went back.
much, much later edit3: Deleted everything years ago, but squatting on my handle so nobody else can have it.
