I was reading some takes on Twitter about Bluesky and it made me kind of sad that some people are like I won’t be happy in an online space unless I have assholes around me for my entertainment

Busy day at the NC Leg. Republicans moved to strip even more power from the governor, a Democrat, by moving the Board of Elections appointments to the state Auditor's office - an incoming Republican. That would mean board of elections will have 3 Repubs and 2 Dems instead of the other way around
