Bluesky is like I’m on a quest to defeat a villain, stumbled into a magical land, and am now collecting sages, magicians, pages, warriors, scribes, misfits, artisans, and jesters. When there is an inevitable village idiot, we use our collective magic and immediately banish them into oblivion. ❤️🔥
Feel like I am living out the Fyre Fest documentary and the entire United States is stuck in this nightmare festival.

Are the next 4 years really going to be logging on everyday to sentences like "a 19 year old doge intern called Big Balls has your social security number" because I'm already at capacity for this sort of thing

An unelected billionaire’s henchmen hijacked the OPM and US treasury databases with millions of people’s personal and financial information. This is horrifying.

The first commercial air disaster in 16 years happened shortly after Trump froze hiring air traffic controllers, fired the FAA director, and politicized air safety.
This prescient tweet dropped 12 hours before the crash, and 24 hours before Trump blamed Obama, Biden, and DEI. Unbelievable.

Prior to the election I was trying to tell my fellow veterans what was coming. Now I am screaming at them, citing a credible military news source.
I know you will all be shocked to hear they still think Trump and the GOP will support & care for us. 🤦🏽♀️😞

Military disability payments are well deserved. There is a massive glut at the moment because Burn Pit veterans are retiring, and the burn pits caused all kinds of issues, for me as well. And we have no idea what it WILL do to us when we are older. Cont…

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to NBC on women in the military:
"They do impact readiness. They make us better. They make us stronger. And again, what I've seen from our women is quite incredible. This is not hyperbole. This is fact ... As the years have gone by, our women get better and stronger."

Bluesky heard your criticism that its user base skewed too heavily toward the elder millennial demographic and compensated by adding ten million even older users

When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs.
So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.
