I hear and see your concerns. Over the weekend, a couple users hosted on Blacksky's PDS were banned from the Bluesky app and thus the Bluesky API servers. This was a weakness of our system I've been aware of and hoped we had more time to address before any kind of public incident. 1/11

BlackSky is the most influential and active community on this app, by far, but the executives and non-BlackSky active users really don't understand how or why it works that way and how much of their experience is downstream of what happens in BlackSky.

It's EXACTLY like how it was w Black Twitter.

The whole controversy w Bluesky executives and their inconsistent/indefensible content moderation decisions is really hammering home how different the experience is on here for active users who are part of the BlackSky community and those who aren't. It's all connected, but it is also VERY separate.

1. He's trash
2. Do NOT call people single issue voters when they tell you they won't vote for him. Not after you told palestinian-americans they should have voted for Kamala, in spite of her Palestine position, because you cared about your queer friends
3. He looks like Mr. Mackey from South Park

OMG 😭😭😭😭😭

Good, so I can take them press-on ears, too.

Walking to the front of the stage.

Take an OG to the gym and he not benching 135. But if he grab your wrist, he owns you until he decides to let go. That's how old man strength works.

Yeah, because look how fulfilled photography and wandering are to you! Capricorn doesn't let themself/ves stray too far from the thing they know they can do, so they don't get to find stuff they like to do or other things they're good at. Saturn is so mean to them. 🥺

"Bad" must mean "honest" now. Mike Jack gone shamon! that ass from the afterlife.

Big wowzers.

Clock it.

Never beating the “Capricorns are all about working and money” allegations.

they just slapped a surgeons general warning on RFK like he’s a pack of cigarettes

Also wish she was wearing a veil or a fascinator or something. Give us some drama. This looks like she's wearing an avant garde coat rack.

Your Prime Day reminder that Amazon...

-Provides cloud services that help fuel ICE's deportation machine
-Donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration fund
-Scrapped plans to display tariff costs after pressure from Trump
-Shelled out $40M for a documentary about Melania Trump

Jesus man. It shouldn’t even have to be like this.

There should be new articles of impeachment dropping daily. Instead we’re getting novellas and soliloquies on social media from people elected solely to get in the field on our behalf. Term everybody at this point.

GIRL. Like. WHAT???

Is [blank] on the side of righteousness??? Then support them. It shouldn't matter which city, which state, which country, or which language they fucking speak.are the FOR or AGAINST FASCISM???????????

And also, just like with the SUPER BOWL conversation, this insistence to segment people based on white supremacy is very strange to your girl. Just like with seeing Southern Black people as somehow different than Northern Black people, it's weird. Y'all are so worried about trophies.

That tit-for-tat shit while missing the damn point is gonna be the death of so many.

Your state is run by a racist transphobe. Our state is run by a racist transphobe. Our CITY ain't got SHIT to DO with that.

The cognitive dissonance to keep reminding people that they got their ideas from anti-Black practices in America and then also turn around and be like, "Why should we care what's going on over THERE?!?!?"

Like.

Y'all are so.....😭😭😭😭😭
