It allows to quickly explore the crowdsourced vibe in various neighborhoods across cities of the world 😍

Thread 🧵

A new account following the strategy on Twitter has made its way to Bluesky.

This account ostensibly seems like an extreme leftist anti-Zionist account celebrating Oct 7th, but it is in fact a far right account using that seeming identity to recruit.

If Trump's first administration was stocked with Bond Villains, it seems like the second one is going with more of a Legion of Doom vibe.

No better way to tell you I'm on Bluesky than to announce that I have brought a class action lawsuit against Elon Musk and AmericaPAC for their fraudulent “lottery” giveaway. Speech is free, but lies you have to pay for.

As a Trump biographer who published a book about January 6, I'm just going to be blunt: he plans to do things to this country he believes could spark a military coup intended to save America from tyranny, so he has to create a mechanism to disable USAF leadership at will. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!
