I have three different fediverse accounts. I tried to combine them, but was unsuccessful. So I've decided to keep them separate, and use them for separate purposes. This one is going to be the account I use to follow smart people who have good insights about politics.

The people I was following who tend to talk about politics a lot, I unfollowed from my mendeddrum.org account (where I've now got filters blocking a bunch of political terms) & followed from this account instead.

If I have something to say about politics, this is also where I'll be posting it. If you want to see my non-politics posts (I do share pictures of my pets every now and then, & they are very cute!) follow that other account.

You're welcome to follow both if you want! But I might follow back on only one of them -- which one would depend on how much you yourself post about politics!

I'm trying this as a way to manage my anxiety & still be able to take action when needed & understand what's happening around me.
