One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Because this platform is moderated. This is not Twitter. There is no Elon Musk dominating an algorithm that drags down the platform

Bluesky is unique. We need it to grow.
The problem with calls for “discourse,” is that MAGA isn’t interested in an exchange of ideas. It wants to leverage the rules of polite to destroy discourse. It wants to walk in, shout us all down, spit lies, and thumb their noses at us.
Shout “if you’re so tolerant why don’t you tolerate my hate?”
Some don't want posts like this on @bsky.app. I want more. Why ?

This is a moderated platform. Which means unbridled hate is removed. And blocked.

Making this is a platform where we can engage and have real discussions on real issues.

@bsky.app w 100m users changes political discourse.

Make it -eight-. Right after Appleton's goal, Perfetti knocks a pass down and Nikitra Chibrikov blasts it home top corner.

8-1 #NHLJets. Chibrikov with a goal in both NHL games in his career.

Can we talk about the fact that Dylan Samberg blocked this shot by Steven Stamkos which broke his foot.

And then he still tried his best to get up, get into the play and then got in a lane to attempt to block another shot from Stamkos. 🤯

pretty telling that the entire liberal side of media has been blaming kamala’s electoral defeat on trans ppl & “woke” and not her refusal to separate from biden on gaza or running a nikki haley style campaign w liz cheney for the past week. can’t be more out of touch w reality.
