Trump definitely didn’t eliminate USAID due to good intentions… but Americans really aren’t aware of the huge damage that USAID has done to many countries around the globe through its interventionist policies.
i don’t even know if crime is the right word for the illegal destruction of USAID. it is an autocratic power grab and a direct attack on the sovereignty of the american people

You mean the already existent status quo where there are “two states” but in reality Israel keeps massacring civilians, colonizing Palestinian land and making illegal settlements?

The solution is not a “two state solution” either.
Kamala Harris believed in a two state solution btw

Bluesky should allow users to add links to their bio just like Twitter does…

It’s kinda weird that we can’t considering that Jack Dorsey was Twitter’s co-creator.

I will try to be much more active on here, but I’m still asking myself on what language should I post. I already have a twitter account where I tweet in Spanish (@hansalexrazo), and another one where I do it in Japanese (@hansalexrazo_jp). So perhaps I should just tweet here (mostly) in English (?).

“Wait, you know Portuguese?”

“Brazilian Portuguese. Just a smattering.”

“Did you spend time in Brazil?”

“No, never been there but I was on Blue Sky in fall of 2024.”

I honestly feel like Bluesky’s logo could be way better.

Is it me or isn’t it kinda difficult to grow a following in Bluesky?

“Dentistry” (歯科) in Japanese is pronounced shika, which (as anime fans now know) is also how you pronounce “deer,” and this is a joke that I don’t think dentists’ signs here make often enough.

Last week, Brazil's government formally apologized for the deportation and imprisonment Japanese and Japanese-Brazilians suffered during World War II. Learn about what drove the apology, and the deep and complex history between the two nations, in our latest below.

It’s pretty interesting how *just* when Japan is experiencing its biggest corruption scandal (裏金問題) and the support for the LDP and the Kishida administration is at historic lows, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is starting to push the debate for constitutional revision.

お勧めのドキュメンタリーです。

JKロウリングの発言からナチス政権時代のトランスの人々の存在を巡る議論があった際に、日本の反トランス勢もしきりに存在を否定していましたが、歴史にしっかりと記録されているし、この映画の中でも登場しますね。

当時は「異性装」が法律で禁じられていたが、必要である人は許可証を発行してもらうことができた、という話もありました。
ドキュメンタリー “Eldorado: Everything the Nazis Hate” (2023)
www.netflix.com/us/title/813...
1920年代のベルリン界隈のクィア文化とハイパーマスキュリンでホモエロティックなSAとのつながり、ナチスに敵対する左翼によるホモフォビア利用(これは失敗に終わる)、セクソロジー黎明期、ユダヤ人迫害と殲滅への意志、戦後も存在し続けた刑法175条まで、歴史的事実がこれでもかと詰め込まれている。再現ドラマに気合が入っているのがよいし、いっときとはいえ複数のトランス女性が一緒にいて幸せそうにしている当時の映像が見られるのもよい。→

Now that, once again, Twitter has gotten even worse with its new update, why don’t we make Bluesky a thing???

We need to leave Twitter and use alternative sites ASAP imo.

Twitter has turned into a far-right cesspool. It’s like a “light” version of Gab or 4chan!

Do people still use bluesky??

The thing I hate the most about Musk’s takeover of Twitter (“X”) is the right-ward shift that the site underwent.

There was already a right-wing problem under Dorsey, but with Musk in charge literal neo-nazis are out there freely spreading their hateful propaganda, with no repercussions.
February 11, 2024 at 2:24 AM
Considering how “X” (twitter) has turned into a right-wing cesspool since Musk took over, I just hope that bluesky opens up and goes mainstream as soon as possible…

I’m very tired of twitter and seeing what it has become…

Twitter under Dorsey wasn’t good… but under Musk is just hell.

So finally my first semester of mu master’s program is over. It was pretty exhausting, but I made many new friends and had amazing experiences (I even got to go to Japan for the first time!).

I’m really looking forward for the semesters to come.

Are people still using bluesky? Honest question… Just to know if I should start using this app again.
December 15, 2023 at 3:03 AM
The only way to truly make Twitter die is to stop using it.

That’s why I’ll slowly start using alternative microblogging sites (such as Bluesky and Mastodon).

It’s sad because Twitter used to be my favorite app, but Elon Musk really ruined it.
August 5, 2023 at 4:50 AM
I really wonder if BlueSky will overtake Mastodon as the new alternative to twitter. What do you all think?

The thing that I fear the most now that I moved to Mexico City is losing my northern Mexican accent.
August 4, 2023 at 6:35 PM
Things that I find weird about BlueSky and that I hope that change:

1. You can’t DM.
2. You can’t put a specific link in your bio.
3. You can’t put your location in your bio.
4. You can’t pin a post on your profile.
5. There seem to be no #hashtags.
6. No draft posts.
7. You can’t post videos.
