As an American, I echo the no. Do NOT regress by converting to the U.S. system. You will regret it as least as much as Brexit.

This can be the site for breaking news, if journalists choose to break news on it. It is as simple as that. And that is not utopian. It is precisely what has happened the last week or so. If you weren't on BlueSky, you were late to each development.

No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.

Sweden’s experience with midwives providing abortion care offers lessons for other countries. Swedism midwives have long led care for healthy women during pregnancy and birth, with doctors supporting when complications arise. Applying the same model to abortion care is both logical and effective.
What Happens When Midwives Lead Abortion Care: Lessons from Sweden | International Confederation of Midwives

Jamie Raskin said he reviewed an email sent from Epstein to co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell that was a forwarded conversation between Epstein’s lawyers and lawyers for Donald Trump.
The DOJ (illegally) redacted Trump's name in the public files.

Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency.
She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

Gun Owners of America is lobbying Congress to pass the SAVE Act, which would require a majority of Americans to show a passport to register to vote.
But GOA opposes any law that requires showing a drivers license to buy a gun.

Since the end of WWII the US has squandered hundreds of trillions of (borrowed) dollars perfecting our cannibalistic 'automobile habitat'. We've dehumanized- and bankrupted ourselves, both at the same time. It's not state capacity that is gone it is capacity in general.

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.
No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.
Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?
No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

I do have to feel bad for anyone who uses Discord as part of their work or art, like media creators who have a Discord you get access to for being a patron. Even if they have no 18+ policies or anything people might drop from using Discord just because of this nonsense, which means less engaged fans
