Great. Let them do their thing over there. But wouldn’t it be so much better if the people with the intellect to have amazing discussions on this platform did so ? There aren’t a lot of in depth discussions on this platform that I have seen. IMO, sky needs them to survive

I cope with moving away from one of the coolest cities in the world by telling Chicago peeps that “we moved to, like, the Lincoln Park of Louisville” and they kinda smirk at me.

Well who’s smirking now??!!

Yep. Fwiw I spend a lot of time in committee w/ she-who-shall-not-be-named & I think she’s a true believer.

I def had a moment in cmte where was like “Wow. I actually have to work in the same room as a white supremacist. Every day.”

The idea they’re “pretending” is very naive for many reasons imo

Something I don’t think gets talked about enough is this super solid bsky mobile client. @pfrazee.com are you using a framework or is this plain react native?

One example of my boundaries when I first ran was “I need to be me.”

In politics it’s common and acceptable to edit yourself and appear a certain way for electability. I personally can’t do that, it makes me unhappy. So I needed to win as me, or not at all. Guided and shaped a lot of decisions.
