I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

being a victim and being a bad person are not mutually exclusive.
They also dont negate eachother.

Two years and two days ago, a woman delivered some chili to her new neighbors. Everyone was very happy and normal and there were no lasting effects.

I never had the privilege of interacting with Burger Becky, but she is one of those people whose work has undoubtedly influenced you without your knowledge if you make or play games.
There are so few trans elders in our community (for several sad reasons), and we just lost a real one.

NC was hit with an ICE storm, first Charlotte & now Asheville and Raleigh.
Looking at this map, I'm curious as to why ICE may be targeting those areas.

in some ways I think the relative lack of negativity obscures these corners of Bsky a bit to people not involved in the scenes, because one of the most common ways to learn about a discussion that is otherwise outside your light cone is a dunk
One thing that's been heavily proven to me is Bluesky is not all politics. The music, record, cd, movie, books, horror and lots more scenes are heavily alive and well here with almost zero negativity. Better engagement here than Facebook has been in years.

The overwhelming majority of "critiques" for things associated with queerness & feminism are just "it's cringe." "Girlbosses are annoying," "blue hair & pronouns are twee," "poly ppl are ugly," "feminists don't get fucked enough," etc
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Trump's super-power is that he simply refuses to acknowledge political wounds that would instantly kill anyone with a modicum of shame. Which has worked well enough for him that many people have fooled themselves into believing he isn't wounded at all. But he is! He always has been!

it is a victory of Hitlerite thought that people are attempting to use Hitler’s own logic to explain the man himself, looking at his genes rather than from the socio-political factors that allowed him to rise
Exclusive: Adolf Hitler’s DNA has been sequenced by scientists
It has:
- shown he had a disorder which impacted his sexual development
- debunked rumours about his ancestry
- shown a high likelihood that he had a neurodivergent condition and/or bipolar disorder
