    Ms. Batson: I'm a believer in the Gordian Knot approach. So, the following email has gone to Mr. Browning. If he isn't already in the Fediverse, perhaps he'll join us.

    Date: August 01, 2026
    From: Robert Kiraly (OldCoder)
    To: Joseph Browning (the gamebook person)
    Cc: Sebbu (a gamebook author)
    Subject: Suggesting Fediverse gamebook account

    @sebbu : It appears that Mr. Browning and you have a common interest in gamebooks.

    Mr. Browning, I'm writing to forward the following thread from the Fediverse. I'd like to suggest that you set up a Fediverse account [or migrate from Twitter].

    Warning: If you try to mirror your Twitter account to the Fediverse, the Twitter bots will probably lock your account. The fact that that is the policy is one reason to exit #Twitter.

    BTW I'm aware that Twitter is referred to as "X" now. However, I decline to go along with the venue's attempt to claim ownership of a term as significant as "X". I feel the same way about Facebook and the term "Meta".

    Looking for source of quote: "The real purpose of #AI is to give the wealthy access to skill without giving the skilled access to wealth." thanks in advance (please note: not in search of commentary at present time)

    Joseph Browning’s website [is] josephbrowning blogspot com should you wish to contact

    I don't have an X account, so I'm walled out of searching on the site. Plus, I don't want to get X cooties on me. Ewh.

    I cannot seem to easily locate this Joseph Browning in the fediverse. If anyone knows his location I would be glad to follow. 🙏🏻
