Like tough-love teachers from your school days, Ms. Clinton brings an assignment for the long weekend:
When you gather with friends & family, tell them how the GOP budget hurts kids.
Now we know: she’s been right all along.

Perhaps also a good time to revisit the American Experience episodes on the Gilded Age and the 1920 bombing of Wall Street before they officially gut PBS & wipe away all reminders of the longstanding struggle to try to make America great (& how elites hindered progress). www.pbs.org/wgbh/america...

Some things you have to accept to a point. A form of monetization is coming unfortunately.
Quiet as kept, the “bigger” Bluesky gets, the more it will change like those other places thanks to capitalism. I don’t want it to compete with Twitter. I want it to be what it is

This is the neoliberalism that separates GenX and Millennials from boomers.
It’s wild when I talk to so many Gen X’ers whose elementary, junior/middle & high schools no longer exist…

Remember when Elon overpaid for the Twitter brand by like 300% because he wanted his buyout offer to be a meme and when he realized that the numbers actually mean things he tried to back out and a court forced him to honor the deal and then he threw the brand away anyway?

People replied to this saying it was worth the price to him to destroy Twitter and such, and. He fought it. In court. It wasn't a clever ploy.
That he got some use out of it after he was stuck with it doesn't change the fact that he skidded ass-backwards into it with his pants on his head.

Hey @aaron.bsky.team, I’m a Palestinian elected official and have been working to get my colleagues over here. Really like this place but structural discrimination against Palestinians is a deal breaker. Please fix this👇
So I hate to tag the mods- but I sent this email about the mass deletion of Palestinian accounts over a week ago to @support.bsky.team and I haven’t heard anything back (apologies if I somehow missed an email). I’d like to ensure it will be seen by the proper people.

Just be prepared. We've all seen that headline going around today that Bluesky is the current #1 app, and X dropped out of the top 25.
That means the absolute worst people in the world are going to be coming here trying to turn THIS place into just as much of a shithole. Block them. Don't engage.
