I left X on New Year's Day. A few days later, it starts allowing illegal content through its AI. This just reassures me that I'm glad I left X.

Trump has:

- Illegally & unconstitutionally attacked Venezuela

- Provided Netanyahu with $12B in arms sales

- Given Argentina's president a $40B bailout

- Approved the sale of jets & tanks to Saudi Arabia

- Given Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho

America first? Really?

It sucks that all the Detroit professional sports teams all have Bluesky accounts, but don't bother to use them.

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

This is journalistic malpractice and an abdication of their responsibility. THEY COULD'VE PREVENTED AN ILLEGAL REGIME CHANGE AND CHOSE NOT TO. FUCK THE MEDIA.

Honestly, fuck our corporate media.

One of my New Year's Resolutions for 2026 is to abandon X, the platform formerly known as Twitter that Elon has ruined. But we need to start using our BlueSky accounts regularly. It's amazes me how many accounts I try to follow haven't bothered to post here in months. I hope that changes this year.
