Disappointed to see Bluesky overrun with spam accounts like X. Though it was supposed to be better 🤷

So the level of engagement on this platform is somewhat disappointing. Meanwhile, X is overwhelming! Facebook is ho-hum. Suppose I'm probably not that active on here. #bluskry #x #facebook

Yeah, people on here have some odd fetishes...

Pressure from work, my main inhibitor. Hopefully the next year is better. I have some exciting opportunities to create... 2/2

Thought I'd post as it's been a while. It has been a bitter sweet week with my daughter turning 1 year old. Whilst I can't wait to see her continuing to grow and become a confident individual, I'm sad that I may not have been able to enjoy her first year to the fullest. 1/2

The baby steps have experienced a slight setback with step 2 reducing to 97%. Though completion of step 2 and positive progression on step 3 should occur after payday this week 🤞 one step close to being free of the banking world's clutches 😎

Dave Ramsey baby step 2 now complete! Onto step 3! Gonna take a while, the target is $21,740 and assuming I can make the necessary changes, I should be able to transition to positive cashflow to reach this goal 🤞 if only I had more time to analyse my cashflow

Dave Ramsay baby step 2 93% complete, moving on to step 3 this week long before my end of February target date 😎 #livinglikenooneelse #daveramsey

So, following the Dave Ramsey baby steps since the start of December has me finished with baby step 1, and now I have baby step 2 16% complete! Have a target of moving to step 3 by end of February 2025 😎

As of the 2nd week of December, I decided to give the Dave Ramsey baby steps a go. So, progress so far is baby steps 1 at 57% complete.

My aim is baby steps 1 and 2 completed by 28th Feb 2025. Watch this space for an update!

Why are you irritated by something so trivial. I suppose one may need to soon say "indigenous with a captial I" when speaking!

Judging by the nodes constantly twitching, probably obsidian 🤣

I made my first crypto investment yesterday. I invested $50 in XYO and it tripled 😱

Get out in the real world and realise a change of president is not the end of the world.

My timeline is a bit too angry and political and serious right now.

Can some of you fill it with absolute nonsense please.

Thanks in advance.

Why are so many people on Bluesky triggered so vigorously by someone having a different opinion to their own? What happened to the old saying, if you can't agree, agree to disagree. The petty things people on here are arguing about are nothing but a waste of time.

Yeah, nice. Wish I had the time to read that many books a year. Last year, I hit my target of 15. Aiming for 20 this year, but I've fallen behind. Turns out a new born coupled with full-time 8-5, 2.5 side hustles and too many hobbies makes it difficult to slot everything in! 😬

Just curious, are you going to read the 36 books, or just holding as objects?

There are some very passionate people on here 😳

^ love this 🤣

If you can't beat them, join them.

So, this can only be done with clear policy with no ambiguity and no doubling back on promises. This cannot be done by continuing to trash talk the opposition.

Okay, my mistake. Thanks for the information.

Yeah, a quick google search lists 6 companies, but vague info regarding other investors.

Yeah, government involvement in most anything can be worrisome. Forgive my ignorance, but is Bluesky transparent when it comes to naming it's investors? I'd be interested to see if there has been any investment made by persons in politics.

...with toxicity and lies coming almost equally from both sides of the discussion more recently. Though, I am confident things will become civilised in a few months once the Americans realise they're not worse or better off than they were before a change of president.

Just from my experience, Twitter seemed to be restrictive regarding topics and content discussed. X seems to reflect the nature of everyday face-to-face discussion that can occur in regards to themes discussed. I will admit at the moment, X is heavily polluted with US political rubbish...

So, Bluesky is the place where you instantly block someone with a difference of opinion... Seems like a good place to become a balanced, well-natured individual... 🙄

So, it's more like a shadow ban?
