So, how are things over here on BS? Did we defeat fascism yet? Did we accomplish ANYTHING AT ALL by fracturing social media? Did we save the world by dividing a large powerful group into several small ineffective meaningless groups? Are we winning?

I usually don't like the term "virtue signalling", but that's exactly what the Twitter exodus was. A performative action that caused confusion and chaos, and had zero actual tangible demonstrable benefits. But a lot of folks got to feel smug and superior, so mission accomplished, I guess.

Find out why this gay couple may seem vicious … but they’re secretly total sweethearts. New video goes live tomorrow on YouTube!
Why Do I Love These VICIOUS Queens?
I just watched this new show called Mid-Century Modern. It’s about a group of older gays living together and it’s been billed as The Gay Golden Girls. And to...

5 minutes into a stream of the game "Schedule 1" I ended up cancelling it & changing games due to being told how the dev is a bigot - I tried the game in my own time to see how deep it went & the following reply to this is what I found.

there’s a version of Anita Bryant’s life - one that would have been so easy, if she had tried - in which it was the gays who eulogized her today: a beloved chanteuse who sang melancholy torch songs.

She chose otherwise, and curdled her life and memory. And history found her like this.

So it goes.
we must remember anita bryant as she lived

One of the most frustrating online interactions to witness is someone asking for help with something, explaining why they're unable to do it for themselves the normal way most people would, and the first responses are always "do it the normal way most people would".

The Bible not only "condones" slavery, it outright *commands* it, and also orders slaves to be good servants if their master is Christian. Modern apologists attempting to defend biblical slavery end up having to say some really weird and gross things.

Banning puberty blockers for trans kids but still allowing them for cis kids feels very much like discriminating against a set of patients based on their protected characteristic.

We really need to nationalise the water companies as they keep proving that they just don't care about providing clean affordable water.
Appalling. 🤬

Gloucestershire County Council unanimously called for the CEO of Thames Water to come to a special meeting and answer questions about pollution and sky rocketing water bills.

That meeting happened in Nov. The CEO didn’t show - sent representatives instead. No apology was issued.
The stench of privatisation in our water companies

Normalization of murder is only okay if the state does it.
I'm thinking a lot about how Big Important People and Pundits are saying that we don't kill people in cold blood over differences of opinion on healthcare policy & wondering if they know that we actually do kill people for jumping the turnstile in the subway. In the very same city.
Re that hit job in NYC:

1. Murder is always bad
2. I understand & in fact share the wails of agony around American healthcare that exploded in the wake of that murder
3. Murder is still always bad
4. I wish the world would give even one iota of that attention to the murders of anyone else in NYC
