Credit card surcharges are as hated as suppurating pustules and bumper-to-bumper traffic. So why don't we just ban them? It's not quite that simple, writes @jasemurphy.bsky.social.
This is why many people, including me, try to use cash where possible. Cash needs to remain a viable alternative. Consider also the panic when phone lines go down or electricity. It's not like it never happens...
Voters of USA: you knew this Trumpster fire was coming. He learned from his last term. You have to ask yourselves, what does it take to fix your electoral system when the results can do this? Do you all have to suffer too much before you do what should have been done decades ago?
Fifteen-year-old James Tebbutt says it is amazing to see how his portable butterfly enclosure boosts the mood at his local aged care facility.
This from the "so-called" President. π #trumpsterfire

Only consolation of this 4 year Trumpster fire is that it may be so bad that even his die-hard fans will turn away. I don't think it will stop him trying for a third term tho. I would be surprised if he didn't.
I don't intend to post Trumpster fires regularly but it's obvious to me that he doesn't actually believe in democracy. Welcome to the 4 year attempted dictatorship.
Looks like Trump learned from what he couldn't do the last time, and is trying to fix that at the start of this term (eg: change public service workers to political appointments so he can fire and replace them if they don't do what he wants).
Just a reminder, apropos of nothing going on today, that you can mute words here on bluesky and set timeframes for when they will be unmuted. π
This is wonderful stuff!
Thoughts. #lafires If USA does little to stop climate change and related events like drought-encouraged wildfire is destroying millionaire mansions, is that what it's going to take for the right people to take the right action??

I'm guessing it's an algorithm thing. Keep clicking or commenting on the things that interest you and the algorithm learns more. Eventually the foxes give up, lol.
(I'm super new and never had Twitter either, so it's all really new for me atm!)
