Great to see thousands of independence supporters marching the streets of Glasgow today.

Together we can.

The Bishop of Washington is my absolute hero. Her words restore some faith in human nature and that good will overcome.

No one should be allowed to be above the law and pardon anyone. On further examination though, Joe Biden had understandable reason as opposed to Trump who plans to pardon those he incited to basically overturn democracy!!! 😠

Me neither
If you feel the same, spread the word.

Oh so true!
The hardest thing to get used to about Bluesky is not getting nasty replies from people who don’t know the difference between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’.

Musk’s X has become a poor quality product.

It’s as simple as that.

Agree but people need to keep using it for this to happen. Fingers crossed. Looks good so far.
I’ve seen enough to make a call: Bluesky is going to be a legit competitor to Twitter.

Sweet.

@robpirrie.bsky.social lots of folk adding each other from this post.
I think it's a cause close to your heart too. Save you being Billy no mates as I was.

I so agree with James. I used to love social media and Twitter in particular. It has become very toxic so it's lovely to be in a space that's not like that.
The more this place reminds me of why I liked social media so much the more I realise that I stopped doing so a long time ago. It’s extraordinary what happened. The volume & violence of posts from accounts you had never shown the slightest interest in just exploded. It *must* have been deliberate.
