Political tortoise, winning the race by taking it slow.
Pinned
I'm autistic.
I'm very far from stupid, but occasionally things you might find obvious, like sarcasm and implicit meanings, can go over my head, like Drax the Destroyer.
Gullibility is my middle name.
I'm a decent person but brutally honest and I don't suffer fools or bullies gladly.

I hate dad jokes.
I know, I know, I'm a monster, but I can't stand them.

Surprisingly, the nasty, intolerant people on Bluesky are of a lower calibre than those on X.
They're slower, dimmer. Their insults and attacks lack oomph and creativity, they fall flat.
How can they be more boring than the abusive trolls on X? I don't know, but they are.

Fourth day on Bluesky.
I've encountered some truly awful people today. Like, genuine scummy, offensive, abusive, hateful people.
Bluesky need to work fast and hard or this place is going to be as bad as X in no time.

Dude making a joke about my dead, dearly missed mother.
We need to work harder on forcing these scumbags off here and onto X where they belong.

This youngster's timeline is a cesspit. Get to know him quick, he's not gonna be on Bluesky much longer.

Imagine being young and still a bit sexist and emotionally dumb, and making a stupid, immature mistake, then people slandering your character because of it for the rest of your life.

Another autistic person told me autism is always a disability. I told them I have autism and I don't have a disability, so they're probably wrong.
They blocked me.
How incredibly fragile.

This dude has reposted this photo because he literally thinks it is morally acceptable to murder Mark Zuckerberg. He's explicitly argued that it's ok.

When having a "discussion" the other day, someone literally said, "Ha! I'm a Political Hare, I get there faster than you!".

If a Chinese company is making significant sales in the UK, should someone in their customer services department be working according to our clock?

Mark Zuckerberg is receiving a lot of hate on here. Can someone explain why?
Presumably people think he's done some bad (awful) things, and they feel that warrants criticism.
That's fine.
But many of the insults and abuse he's getting seem quite childish and are definitely unwarranted.

This is disingenuous reporting. The synagogue was simply on the route of the march, they would have simply walked right past it.

I've tried this several times. They always die. I think it's much better to catch and release.
If I saw a mouse in my house I would simply catch it and give it the best life ever

I've been pretty damning about this place so far. The users, in general, are more similar to the X crowd than I imagined. Lots of bad eggs, sadly.
But, yesterday, I began to meet some really decent folk. And guess what? Yup, they're autistic.

I'm a very humble person.

So, when y'all said Linda would be evicted, and I said she wouldn't be, it really pains me to admit ...
YOU WERE ALL WRONG.
