I was joking, but an Alternative Eurovision for Gaza could be an absolute smash of a show.
Think of how many of our artists that wouldn’t currently do Eurovision for moral and/or artistic reasons would be lining up to compete in this one.

Also handy: hidden hashtags. I just tried it. Works well!
good news for BSFC users! and if you don't know what this means, in deck.blue you can click the # button in the post composer to add up to 8 hidden hashtags that don't take space in your post but still tag them properly in search and feeds!
🚨🚨🚨Your BSFC feeds can now search for hidden tags, like the ones you can add to a post via @deck.blue. You just need to adjust your "Search within" toggle at the bottom of the blue search terms box on your feed dashboard.
Posts which come in with hidden tags will show them in purple in Recent Posts.

New report shows that Trump platforms, Twitter & TikTok, are serving up relentless far right garbage to German users ahead of national elections.

Time for the EU to step in, to shut down these fraudulent grifters*.

deck.blue is a good interface for desktops for those interested. Not unlike Tweetdeck. Also works on mobile browsers.

This week on ‘The Pivot’, I’m talking about book piracy, why it’s trending, and how it impacts authors—whose average salary is less than minimum wage. Somehow, I also managed to link it all to Captain Phillips. Subscribe, read, and let’s talk!

the closest thing to this is the FollowersLike feed: bsky.app/profile/did:...
@deck.blue (perhaps @bsky.app) Is there a way as in tweetdeck to have a column where it collects the likes and follows of those that I follow and displays them? There are generally a lot of gems to pick out of that and it also leads to other people to follow.

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.
