I made a starter pack to follow the incredible team at @bsky.app

(I am not on the Bluesky team, but I can’t remove myself from my starter pack)

Nag the house down
Not all reps can be convinced to do the right thing, but every single one of us has the power to at least be very annoying. I believe in you 💜
And, importantly: contact your reps ESPECIALLY if you think they're worthless transphobic bigots. Don't make it easy for them. Don't let them believe nobody gives a fuck.

Autism isn’t a disease or an epidemic. It’s not something to fear or to prevent.

If “combating autism” seems like a worthy political goal to you, you’re either a eugenicist, or you’ve been deceived by eugenicists. #Autistic

We all need to become eco-populists. That means championing policies that significantly lower daily costs while lowering emissions. Heat Pumps for All, alongside much more robust tenant rights; free and better public transit; price caps on green energy; make polluters pay for the transition.

This is a wonderful quote. And I wholeheartedly echo its sentiments.

But it wasn’t Baldwin that said it.

It was another great- Robert Jones, Jr. under the moniker ‘@sonofbaldwin’

This is the next phase that Kiwi Farms members have stated they will do - constructing look-alike blocklists and then adding popular trans people to them after the fact, once the blocklist is seeded in the community. Make sure any block list you use says who runs it.
Do you know who is running this list? Reason for asking is they copied this account's lists verbatim, but do not say who is running their account.

We're rolling out some "quality of life" improvements to the app this week

One of them already shipped on the Web app. The 📌 replies* are now sorted to the bottom of a thread, so they don't block out the conversation

* These are a way to bookmark posts via the bsky.app/profile/jaz.... feed

Some features I would like to see on @bsky.app

- bookmarks
- drafts
- translation (more friends, less barriers!)
- post editing (with previous version viewing; I know, I’m asking a lot, but it’s about transparency)

I’ll append more below as I think of them.

Bluesky is an echo chamber—but the echo is anti-fascism.
