Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, a day where we remember those who have died or been killed because of who they are.

It is crucial that we work to tackle hatred and discrimination against the trans community, and that everyone feels safe to go about their lives with dignity and respect.

Seeing posts letting people know who's joined Bluesky, is like joining a new company following a series of redundancies at your old place, and being regularly advised which of your colleagues have also started working there. I like it.

Good news: Twitter is collapsing.

And this chart doesn't even show the last two weeks—which have seen the largest exodus in site history.

There are reports from Newsweek and others that Twitter may merge with Truth Social.

If that happens, the last collapse of Twitter may happen almost overnight.

Been here a couple of hours and getting a lot of cats and waterfalls. No problem with these per se, but hoping for more dogs and political satire in the near future.

Hi! I've just moved in! Hoping someone's going to pop round with a casserole or a bottle of wine to welcome me to the street. Have moved from a very bad neighborhood 😢. Please be kind while I settle in 😊.
