The Oregon Trail generation speaks

Literally just talked to one of the primary coffee distributors in my town and he said to expect our favorite roaster’s price to go from $13/lb to $30

if any Democrats besides AOC want to weigh in about the misrule that's already been prevalent over this first week that'd be pretty cool

Yes! We need more animal posts and less current events posts! We’re all online to get AWAY from the real world these days!

Hate to say I told you so, but here we are… get ready for another ride in the cost of basic groceries!

I was using a word counter to make sure I didn’t go over and pasting from that. Which didn’t work on desktop but seems to work in the app on the phone!

I think this might be what’s happening! Good call!

Thanks for trouble shooting with me folks! Got it somewhat sorted. Seems to be a glitch with posting from the computer. Seems to work better when posting from the app. Which is a little less than convenient but still functional 🤷🏻‍♂️

... FEMA doesn't need less funding for what they do. They need MORE support so that they can expand their resources. When something isn't working the way you want it to, you don't get rid of it, you fucking fix it. It's not a fucking TV, it's a disaster relief agency that saves lives. 5/5

... This is a picture I snapped of my partner meeting w/ her FEMA agent in front of her trashed apartment. Through this conversation the savvy FEMA agent was able to figure out that someone had stolen Claire's identity and filed a claim in her name, trying to steal her payout... 4/5

... Their response was beyond adequate, it was impressive. I've worked in 2 hurricane relief zones and I have never seen a response as quick and expansive as the one ofter Helene in WNC... 3/5

Within 24 hours of the storm I watched FEMA responders pull people from the rooftops of their homes, running boats up the Swannanoa River to search for survivors and the dead... 2/5

Let's be clear about what he means by “make the states handle it”. It’s holding federal aid hostage for only those who kiss the ring.

When my partner's apartment was destroyed by Helene, FEMA was there w/in 24 hours to help. They paid for us to stay in hotels... 1/5

I have yet to successfully generate anything longer than a single "tweet" that will post successfully. Anything I've tried to post with a thread simply won't post. It just blocks out the "post all" option. Most puzzling.

Yeah, it’s just happened with enough posts that I’ve basically not even been saying anything on this platform because I effectively can’t. Less glitchy and more unusable, for me at least so far 🤷🏻‍♂️

Is anyone else having this problem w/ Bluesky where you type your entire thread, make sure it’s within the character limit, and then go to post it but it won’t let you? This is happening to me so frequently I’m thinking about abandoning the platform all together.

It’s also a great place to hide your stashes of Tommy guns!

Oooh! So pretty! Thank you!

I SEE NO CUTE ANIMALS! Please do post in the comments 😭

I feel like someone like him buying it would seem less nefarious than a Musk or Bezos, seeing as he made his entire career through these platforms and has a seemingly vested interest in keeping them regulated but open. Can’t help feeling like we’re watching a Citizen Kane prequel, though.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

I’ve been on BlueSky for two days and it’s been nothing but Trump news. Show me your pets. Show me a piece of art you love. Link to a piece of music you’ve been digging. Let’s get something other than bad news up in here!
