1. There's a cap on the size of a Bluesky post.
2. When I hit Share to Bluesky from other apps,it never goes.

I seek love, not solitude’s embrace,
Crave trouble’s highs and lows in a rush,
Desperate for a place to hide from gloom,
Want to wake with scars loved still,
Weary from toil, hooked on touch’s charge,
Chasing lightning to fight the crash,
Tell me I still have breath to last

An economy needs predictability.
Investors won’t invest, consumers won’t buy, and producers won’t produce if economic policies change on a whim.

Ok I can't paste here, I can't respond to notifications or post shares. I can't post more than a small paragraph. Presumably, because the app doesn't work with my one year old middle of the road Samsung Android. I'm not buying a new phone just to use one app.

Our democracy is under attack. I hear about research halted, aid stopped, layoffs. All done in an illegal fashion ( also illogical and purposeless. ) When will I see postings from private individuals who have been illegally fired?

Aging FAA infrastructure became a problem when those who knew how to make it work were fired by MAGA/DOGE/47.

This is insane. Republicans have inserted language into the budget reconciliation bill that would ban states from regulating AI in any capacity for 10 years.

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked:
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Trump's crypto venture is fleecing his supporters.
80% of the new or small-time crypto investors in Trump’s coin have been hit with big losses.
Meanwhile, his team is making millions off the coin’s trading fees, which stay stable even when its value goes down.
It’s a grift.

I give up. I tried to post a meaningful quote about detention, and it's too long to post. It's the length it needs to be. Why limit text, but posting pix and videos is OK?
Good luck, Bluesky. Sorta knew you weren't up to the job when you picked a name for the site that isn't easily searchable.

During the first Trump presidency, an Iraqi man was accidentally deported.
That administration apologized, hired a personal investigator to find where he was hiding in Iraq (since he was in danger), and then flew him back to the United States. He is living in the United States now.

This is so fucked up. ICE agents in Massachusetts smashed the window of a car to grab a Guatemalan guy who was with his wife. They were waiting for their lawyer to arrive because he has a pending asylum case.
