Absolutely true:
The thing about blocking a jerk without otherwise engaging them is that an hour later you will have forgotten about them entirely; nothing about them will have stuck in your memory at all. There's not even a blank spot. It's simply as if they never existed in your space at all. It's delightful.
MAGA is going to chase you over here. They'll chase you where ever you go on social media. They can't survive without making you miserable. Why do you think Truth social failed? They need conflict. Don't give it to them and don't engage. Bluesky has amazing block functions. Block them into the void.

Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) insists that Donald Trump deserves credit for his family members getting health coverage. But Vance’s mom depended on Medicaid while she battled addiction — and then got private health coverage using Obamacare.
JD Vance’s mom got health coverage under Trump — by using Obamacare
The vice-presidential nominee’s story about family members’ new health coverage illustrates how Republicans inherited — and benefited — from the current system.

THIS IS DISGUSTING:
With each launch, SpaceX has been discharging tens of thousands of gallons of industrial wastewater into sensitive wetlands. Environmentalists say an increase in launches will only make things worse.
