So here's a thing, we are about to tick over 10k followers here on BlueSky. Is it possible we could wake up on Monday morning having passed that number?
Wow the xodus from Twitter has been quite something.
Is this Elon Musk's own Compuserve, AOL and MySpace combined?

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Naomi Beinart, 16: "We girls woke up to a country that would rather elect a man found liable for sexual abuse than a woman...Where the body I haven’t fully grown into may no longer be under my control. The boys, it seemed to me, just woke up on a Wednesday."

On the day after the election, it seemed boys and girls woke to a new reality.
