going to pin this to remind me that it's really not worth arguing with strangers.
One hard part of the literacy problem in the United States is there are a lot of people -- some of them with college degrees and beyond -- who don't realize that they are bad at reading

I don't know how to reach those people

just a friendly reminder that engaging in casual bigotry helps no one, except yourself to be a bigot
“But what if my quoting this Nazi frees Palestine”

Good question, try it one more time and see if it works

Carcinisation has only been observed in decapod crustaceans, but why take the chance?
I do not eat crab because one day all will be crab. Crab is the final destination for us all. We mustn't eat what we will become, which is crab. Crab is all.

Remembering when this defamatory hate group called me an antisemite, using a photo of me getting arrested for protesting Nazi terrorists after the Tree of Life massacre.

Bluesky’s head of trust & safety responding with a sarcastic image macro to a woman upset her husband was kidnapped by ICE is embarrassingly unprofessional & cruel behavior.

that account was then banned by Bluesky Trust & Safety. horrendously poor community management. what purpose does this serve?

When you talk about the murderous dictator, why do you have to say he’s bad??

Windows is a bad, unstable product now and they keep making it worse

they should focus on changing that

Does anyone know of conversations where *white people* are talking about this in the full context of white supremacy?

Or to put it another way, is there a conversation where at least some white people are starting to recon with what they're learning about white supremacy?
before the trump admin, this would have been one of the biggest political scandals in history and alone would be solid grounds for impeachment and removal.
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

the rich feel entitled, the poor are suckered into "honesty"

"those with household incomes of $100,000 or more were the most likely (40%) to say they’ve intentionally taken an item without scanning it. Just 17% of those making less than $30,000 said the same."

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

when my wife was 9 months pregnant we were at union station waiting for the train that was running late and she laid her head on my shoulder and closed her eyes and a cop appeared out of nowhere and said she has to wake up or she’ll be arrested for trespassing

this certainly puts a tarnish on my FIFA prize for physics, which i won for figuring out how to get out of bed this morning
I’ve been nominated for the FIFA prize for literature, oh wait, I just found out I won. Imaginary prizes are it turns out, very easy to win.

this is very true about local politics, you CAN have a huge impact on your community

however, use this to try to have an impact on statewide & above politics, you'll find there's an iron dome of money there to stop you. not impossible, but get ready for it to be fulltime work, which may not succeed
I really can't emphasize enough that if you care about local politics, all you gotta do is show up. Just a regular schmegular person showing up. Literally just show up consistently in person and within a remarkably short amount of time, you will have a shocking amount of influence.

About half way through reading this wonderful profile about a local legend I’d never heard of (the best sort of profile) I thought “how have we not made a movie or show about this woman?” Got to the end and my concerns were put to rest. Amazing work from @tomandlorenzo.bsky.social!
A very important thread. When I was probably no more than 10, I saw this picture of the woman known as Harlow in the Philly Inquirer. A little babygay, I was shocked that such a glamour queen could live in my hometown and even more shocked to see her described as "a former man."

Hey @safety.bsky.app,

Ruaa is a real person who doesn’t spam other users. She should be reinstated, especially in light of her being targeted by a Nazi.

Speaking of Nazis, it’s been over 48 hours since I reported this account.

Am I to assume Islamophobia is within Bluesky’s Community Guidelines?

AltText: A red funicular car travels down on a bridge over a railroad track, as a train passes under the bridge. It's snowing, and the only spot of color is the red funicular, which looks jaunty riding at a horizontal level on its steeply sloped track.
This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.
