Update on my blog and social media accounts after the divorce
I’ve written about the potential harm on my housing and healthcare. What about the blog? This blog has 21+ years of archival content of LGBTQ+ experiences in this region. I had a plan for preservation. With grant funding, I hoped to contract with a queer archivist, a graphic designer, and a web designer to prepare […]
Now My Blog Posts, Social Media Content, and even my Email are Shadow Banned
My voice is being silenced by social media platforms, algorithms, bias, bigotry, and so forth. Here is a Wikipedia page where my cousin Michael Pryor is quoted about shadow bans. In my case, it is Pink Banning. I haven’t seen Michael for over a decade and he’s a pretty progressive guy so I’m not going […]
Follow us on social media
Every once in awhile, I like to remind you of the multitude of ways you can stay connected with us. Also, I am competitive enough to hit milestones with followers. It is a character trait I don’t relish, but do rationalize. First, you can subscribe to the blog so you never miss a post. Next, […]
Upbeat crowdfund update: Hey, Sue got a tattoo and 100,000 followers on Instagram
Hello friends! This will be (I hope) an upbeat update. I’ll post another data driven one tomorrow. My blog turns 20 on December 29, 2025. I am proud of that milestone. Most blogs endure 2-3 years. To commemorate it, I had the blog logo tattooed on my forearm this past Friday night. See photo. I […]
Is there insta approval for this Gen X blogger?
I joined Instagram in August 2012. Mostly I posted photos of my pets and my backyard, with some occasional selfies. It was fun. I’m more of a content curator than a creator – I do create. I follow and share content from credible, representative creators that is heavy on politics, but also social justice and […]
My personal Facebook page has been shadow banned for over two years
For a long time now, I’ve noticed that engagement on my personal Facebook page has been dramatically lower than in previous years. No one comments, likes, or shares. People tell me all of the time that they don’t see my content (and when I point out that they could seek it out, they don’t.) What […]
Pghlesbian Named Finalist for BlueSky and Threads Acounts in Best of Pittsburgh poll. Vote Daily Through August 22.
I was pleasantly surprised to be named a finalist in two categories of the ‘Best of Pittsburgh’ 2025 awards – for Best BlueSky account and Best Threads account. I have a much bigger following on Instagram and Facebook, but I do spend time on these platforms and regularly share content I find important. I’ve blogged […]
Generational Differences in Social Media Solidarity, How Ageism Shows Up
I was recently contacted by a ‘content creator’ whose work I had shared. I used the attribution mark, I tagged the account, but she was not happy with me because I wasn’t interacting with the content – likes and comments – and she assumed I was just building up my own page without giving back. […]
Being Promoted to Middle Management as a Social Media Influencer
CN: anti-trans rhetoric, influencer, suicide, haters I hit a nice, fun milestone last night, reaching 50k followers on Instagram. Being a curious person, I dove deep into the world of followers and influencers and so forth. In return, every social media analytic company under the sun sent me an email. See, fun? But what does […]
