Godwin’s law is officially suspended, as its final outcome is no longer hyperbole.

Sup, nerds! MAGA=N@zis. That’s facts.

If all 88 of my followers here shared this, and all 88 of their followers then followed me, I’d have… like… way more followers.

Pete Hegseth isn't just a Christian nationalist, he's FAR to the theological right of anybody even close to national power in modern history. Ted Cruz is Ned Flanders next to Hegseth. I've been reporting on the Christian Right for 20+ years. This isn't just "another one"; this is new & worse.

Haha. I guess I need to poke more, cause ain’t nobody saw this! 😂

How’s this place going? Bluesky getting fun for people? I poke my head in every now and then to see if it’s better than threads yet…

Hot take: nobody ever got rich because of hard work. Hundreds of millions of people work hard (WAY harder than any billionaire), and remain poor/middle class. Wealth comes from luck. Exclusively. Every time.

Santa is a weird character. Wants zero actual connection or interaction with humanity, choosing instead to sit in judgment over everyone, doling out reward and punishment as he sees fit.

No accountability to us. No oversight. His decisions are all final and we must accept them.

Same with god.

Interact with this if you’re a feminist atheist leftist with no sympathy for “alpha males” or healthcare CEOs

So has the butterfly logo on Bluesky scared off all the “alpha” men who are so insecure about their masculinity? If so, it was a stroke of genius!

One is for containing it, the other IS it.

Hit like if you enjoy liking posts!

Am I the only person who dreads updating apps? I hold out for as long as possible, and when they finally force me to update, my thought is always “what fresh hell have they devised for me now?”

The sad fact is that a single CEO being shot won’t change the way corporations are run. Zero corporations are looking at that and thinking “how do we appease the disgruntled masses?” They’re all just beefing up security.

I’m naked right now with crazy hair. What are y’all doing?

I think “the more, the merrier” should not be thought of as a general idea, but really specific to particular moments. It’s great to love crowds, but also check in with your friends before you start adding to your group for the evening.

Cold weather sucks. Extremely hot weather also sucks. But cool-ish weather, where you want to wear short sleeves, but also there’s a little chill in the air, and it will get colder when the sun goes down, but you don’t want to keep a jacket/sweater with you all day… that kind of sucks too.

The key to sanity in these troubled times is to strongly downgrade your opinion of humans. I mean that in a positive way. Everyone is genuinely doing their best, it’s just that we’re an idiot species, so our best is just generally kind of terrible. That’s all. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Is it working? Is the switch to here and/or threads getting enough traction to make these places fun?

I don’t know, maybe not having that other experience will make the transition into this better. You won’t be burdened with thoughts of ways it should be more like the (former) bird app.

Absolutely!

Officially deleted my Twitter account. Anybody here want to, you know, do whatever you do on these things?

Still trying to get a bead on this environment. Anybody have any accounts they think I should follow?

Been waiting for the Georgia indictments. I make no bones about hating the Donald and everything he stands for, and I’m now one step more confident that he’ll actually face justice for attempting to subvert our democracy. Lock him up!

Six! I’m killing it!

As of this moment, I have 5 whole followers here! I'm guessing that with hard work and grit, I can get that number up to double digits in a matter of a few short months...

There’s a great podcast called Thank God I’m Atheist….

Today is a two egg, three yolk day! Errbody make a wish!

tweet from grimes I enjoy mansplaining. It's my love language. I will gladly be talked at with pure facts for hours. A friend once told me she sees it like being an illiterate medieval king having books summarized for her by scribes and whatnot.

I can't

Hey, y’all! Look- it’s my first BSKY tweet! 🦤
