People here won’t want to hear it, but… 🇺🇸 Bluesky is ultimately US as well. 🇩🇪 Mastodon is somewhat decentralised and based in Germany.
I’m *not* saying to quit Bluesky. I am gently suggesting maybe simultaneously giving Mastodon another shot if you’re not over there already.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

New statement from Labour MP Simon Opher, who is not very happy at the proposed asylum plans: "We should stop the boats because it's dangerous, and we should stop the scapegoating of immigrants because it's wrong and cruel…. We should push back on the racist agenda of Reform rather than echo it."

Again, the only possible explanation is that MTG was recently visited overnight by three ghosts.
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Not the first to make this point. But there is a tyrant in charge of another country who is accused of being heavily linked to a paedophile sex ring - and supposed ‘patriots’ in this country are passionately willing him to take down our national broadcaster. Madness.

I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?
