Just an older gay guy who has been around the block a few times. I have many thoughts and opinions. Very liberal leaning. Do no harm.
Was it just me or did anyone else in Calgary notice the extra 37 seconds of daylight today?

I need help locating the angry white guy who didn't get the asparagus picking job in Quebec because of immigrants. I'm sure you all have similar examples of this problem😉

I believe we need a new kind of civic institution that does the homework of democracy, displacing for profit “news” with a free source of verified information.
I am all for giving the average citizen the same type and quality of information enjoyed by
Ministers.

But I wish they would get on making a new iPad app.
Instead it is constrained currently to the screen size of a phone.
Can’t use the site in a browser which I think is an accessibility issue, as the text on the app can’t be expanded.

Anyone else having trouble with this app on a tablet? Very small screen and it moves around too much. Looked at settings and can see nothing.

Another tip for Bluesky newbies - no, it's not as fast-paced here, immediate engagement - here, YOU are the algorithm so you need to engage! Post, comment, re-post others, follow lots to start with - engagement is the key to traction and interaction here. Be proactive, not passive. Well worth it!

The final piece of advice I would like to give to new folks tonight is that Bluesky will be what you make of it. When I came over from the former Twitter, I resolved to be more kind to others here than I was over there. That choice has made being here so much better. Keep it in mind for yourself.
