One thing I think Bluesky should add is not only number of things like reposts, followers, etc. , but how many people have blocked the account. It would make it a lot easier to decide to block the troll who appeared on your post.

So DeJoy and Musk (USPS and DOGE) have been working together (surprise!) When Trumps voters figure out where most of these locations are...I don't think they are going to be very happy.

The markets are relieved that inflation came in below forecasts and are up over 1%. That just doesn't make sense, they came in .1% under forecast and I don't see any tailwinds to make inflation better, just tariffs and counter-tariffs. I'm predicting more market pain. www.cnn.com/2025/03/12/e...

Inflation slowed more than expected in February and cooled for the first time in four months, but that progress may be short lived as President Donald Trump ramps up his trade war, which threatens to ...

@mcuban.bsky.social Maybe I'm just not in the right tax bracket? Do tax cuts immediately make you go out and spend money on more expensive products? www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Tariff Worry on Wall Street Pressures Trump to Speed Up Tax Cuts

This isn't sustainable, if it does sustain, history shows how it ends.

It's frustrating when you find a product you really like, but then you follow them on social media and their posts are so vile you vow never to purchase anything from them again.

Tron Legacy is a decent flick, it didn't blow me away as much as I wanted but it has great moments. These tracks from the soundtrack however are absolute BANGERS

Such polarization undermines survey reliability.

"itemized documents posted by the group suggest the actual savings are only a fraction of that amount. Sending 20% of the roughly $8.6 billion of DOGE savings the group has so far listed on its website would amount to about $11 per taxpayer."

Won't even cover the increase in egg prices.

Steve Bannon is always a conundrum. I really do believe he wants to do what is best for the "average" American, but his approach to it is completely opposite of what I believe. "Enemy of my enemy is my friend" rarely works out long term...but it defeated the Nazis the first time.

This is why Steam is my favorite gaming platform. With the plethora of "Early Access" games, it's easy to get sucked into buying a game after watching a Youtube video only to find out it was abandoned long ago.

Canada is talking about export taxes on oil. Some US refiners can only use heavy oil which is mostly imported.
Top 4:
1) Canada – 1B (75.1%)
2) Mexico – 158M (11.6%)
3) Colombia – 63M (4.6%)
4) Ecuador – 52M (3.8%)
we used to import as much oil from Venezuela as we do from Mexico
This will be fun.

Right now there are a lot of people saying Elon Musk is running the government.

DON'T SAY THAT!

Donald Trump is in charge and he has delegated his authority to Musk. Donald Trump alone is responsible. Do not allow him to pretend later this wasn't his fault because "he wasn't in charge."

Joe Manchin believes Democrats "normalizing" is the problem. You can pursue happiness, but he shouldn't be forced to see or accept it. That's called Segregation Joe. I know he's familiar with it. I can see why he left the party, Democrats are still fighting that. Bye.
