Especially with doxxing, swatting, harassment, and rising fascism using social media to track more and more people, why would I want to use my real identity? The internet will just have to live without my face.

I still don't understand how Europe (-UK) managed to agree on the shape, size, and spacing of the power pins, but not the ground.

I love algorithms in moderation. When they highlight great things I would've missed, they're amazing. When they hide stuff that I have expressly said I wanna see, whether accidentally or by design, they suck. It's good to not have everything you see filtered by an algorithm.

Being immune from something doesn't make it legal, it's still a crime.

That's immunity to criminal prosecution, not impeachment. There is no immunity to impeachment, at least not until the supreme court pulls something new out of its collective ass.

ICE was always bad, very bad, but also ICE obviously got worse this year.

Sure, let them. Again, arguing on Bluesky is never productive.

Thinking about it, I don't believe you don't see the value of insults. Do you construct an argument for why every little thing that Trump says is wrong or do you just call it dumb? Some things are too dumb to be worth arguing over, and this conversation is rapidly approaching that point.

Nothing about arguing on Bluesky is productive, it's fun, it's venting. I'm not here to have civilized debate or whatever, that leads nowhere, I'm here to talk to people and somewhat catch news.

Sure, what's the problem here?

Should we be pretending they're actually smart so we don't "debase ourselves"? Some people are just dumb, it's fine.

The thing I miss most is a fantastic vegan salmon, I had never before or since tasted a truly good fish alternative, now there's only a mediocre fake fish fingers. The good vegan sausages are also gone, there were multiple and now none. My favorite vegan meatball is also gone but there's others.

America doesn't need to import its fascism from Russia, it has plenty of home-grown fascism. Spreading conspiracy theories isn't helping, there's plenty of real conspiracies and they ain't hidden.

I love whoever at CBS "accidentally forgot" to pull it for international release! And the Streisand effect

To defend Adam the tiniest bit: he spends most of his time attacking tech bros
