Gay lefty, gardening, dogs, nature. Food bank volunteer. Wishing we could all look after the planet, and each other. #CovidIsAirborne

I was skeptical of the “X is slowly cooking your brain” discourse because I don’t think my ideological worldview has shifted much, but having now experienced both Bluesky and X I think the big difference is I got used to fighting/provocation as the standard “tone” of posting without realizing it.

The amount of times I've heard people (i.e well-paid management) say things like this. 'There is no work ethic in this country anymore, I work blah/blah hours a week'. They don't think of all the privileges their wage affords them, like, you know, being about to put the heat on.

Morning all! Wishing you a peaceful Friday. It feels so easy to despair, but take heart that good people are also in the world. It certainly helps me to see so many genuine, kind people on here. So much easier too weed out than the other place. Thank you for caring for the planet and its people.

So gratifying to see a substack post get more than about 10 likes.

The active suppression implemented by X meant that hardly anyone ever saw my tweets about my substack.

Another good reason to be here.
"Why engage in the cess-pit of misinformation that X has become and suffer the concomitant daily abuse when I could speak to the same number of people on Bluesky without the bile, the hate and the outright lies I’ve encountered on X?"

Just horrendous. Between them, Trump and Netanyahu seem determined to wipe the Palestinians off the face of the Earth. It was terrible under Biden. It'll be even worse now. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/n...

A brilliant watch @jceoltasmith.bsky.social, well done!
Devastating language is being used to describe people who deserve care, compassion, and benefits. If people saw how chronically ill people are, and they are still refused help, they wouldn't believe it.

It seems like the time has come to leave that other hell site. Good to see familiar faces here.

My friend, who has terminal cancer, was left to wait 9 hours in A&E, no one around her masked, she masked despite it being boiling hot and having breathing difficulties. What are we doing to people?
This is horrifying
This week I had a scan at the cancer hospital. Cancer hospital foundation employees were not wearing masks, most patients were. I’m left wondering… who is the cancer hospital foundation for? What is their stated purpose?

Just found out that the 'summer cold' has turned into the 'back to school head cold'. Same product different branding.

With everyone losing their minds about 7 bins, worth saying in Wales we already have 5. Food waste, plastics, cardboard and paper, garden waste, and black bins. Is that unusual?

Giddy with the newness of all this, and people seem nice, so that's new too.
