Hey so I'm just a random human living in a super quiet corner of Bluesky, but here's my sincere take on this past week/decade and how I think I'm gonna survive the long dark tunnel we're currently staring down. Hopefully this thread resonates with some of you!
So I've really enjoyed the first few days of being on this platform. Been reflecting a lot about *gestures vaguely at all the things*.

One of the things I hate about social media today is that it killed what I loved about social media before.
Seconded. Official motto of 2026
Bro it’s a goddamn miracle we survived 2025 (I mean, there is still time) so in 2026 it should be FUCK IT, WE BALL.

"You see, what happens is that if you give the rich guys more money, then they have more money to share with the poors. It just kinda trickles down, like magic! Get it? It's a win-win for everyone"
Maybe I'm missing an important point, but the Ford gov's claim that "Landlords will lower rents if they can rent out more of their properties now that we've given them more power over tenants" feels like something you'd say if you'd never literally never heard of capitalism before in your life.

"The idea of an Epstein class is helpful because one can be misled by the range of people to whom Mr. Epstein ingratiated himself. Republicans. Democrats. Businesspeople. Diplomats. Philanthropists. Healers. Professors. Royals. Superlawyers. [...] This diversity masked a deeper solidarity."
@anandwrites.bsky.social has nailed in this piece what has been grinding away at my gut since my own review of the Epstein files— that there truly is an “Epstein class” of elites, inured to the pain of the rest of us, committed to their own ends no matter the cost.

In the last 24 hours, I've watched clips of journos just *sitting there* while DJT calls their colleague "piggy" for asking a question, and now while he dismisses the horrific murder of their colleague by the guy right next to him as "things happen".

This is all so pathetic.
Holy shit Trump just defended MBS in the killing of Jamal Khashoggi saying he knew nothing about it

Loser throws up a white power symbol while talking to the Vice President, who chuckles and responds, "I like this guy!"

Share far and wide, since the media refuse to call out the reality of what this administration represents.
I got the video. We shouldn't get acclimated to this racist, edgelord shit.

You know what makes me crazy? All the people who froth at the mouth about what is happening, scream about the fall of democracy, but won’t do one single concrete thing to back up those words. ARE YOU SUPPORTING THESE COMPANIES? We have power in our wallets. USE IT!

Love this idea. ❤️
What if instead of Cyber Monday (aka Daddy Bezos Day), we did a Support Indie Media Monday?

What are your favorite indie publications? Who are some of your favorite freelance and indie reporters and commentators?

Can we make this a thing?

AI companies should go under and financially wipe out VCs. exec's should go to prison for putting systems into the world that were instrumental in numerous suicides without any consideration for those risks. there should be consequences for experimenting on the public on roads and in social settings

This is grotesque. What are we even doing, here? People all over the world struggle to eat, stay healthy, and live safely. People work and toil just to stay afloat.

Why on earth do we abide such vile greed? Fuck this shit, and fuck this demented ghoul.
The world’s richest man was just handed a chance to become history’s first trillionaire. Elon Musk won a shareholder vote on Thursday that would give the Tesla CEO stock worth $1 trillion if he hits certain performance targets over the next decade.

The fact that so many people both inside AND outside of NYC are thrilled right now should give us hope that all is not lost.

This Canadian is very excited tonight! A democratic socialist? I'm this economy? LFG! 🥹

This is such a blow to free speech and sound journalism. @teenvogue.com has offered some of the strongest political commentary over the last several years. Their reach is vast.

Now their political journalists are being fired...presumably to satisfy the U.S. government/U.S. oligarchy.

Shame on you.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Agree! Learning about Ohtani and how we love him and also prefer when he's not playing has been my favourite discourse of the week. Glad you had one another to lean on while trapped in extra innings hell last night. Thumbs up to all my baseball pals on here ⚾
baseball posting is unambiguously good for Bluesky. not my thing but we desperately need some lighter topics round these parts

Aside from...everything about this gross and ugly monstrosity (and the circumstances under which it's being realized)

How wild is it to witness this, just in terms of historical echo? It's like...their tacky Versailles.

And you know what eventually happened there.

This person is one hundred percent correct and it’s scary af. We will never “media literacy” our way out of this as a society. We are about to reap the whirlwind when it comes to misinformation, disinformation, and informational warfare.

Above Guideline Rent Increases (AGIs) are being consistently exploited by corporate landlords to raise rents for tenants in rent-controlled units.

It's time we ban them.

These activists were so brave, when world is in such short supply of decency and humanity. How is this treatment acceptable in any way?

• Whenever I raised my head to look at Ben-Gvir, I was kicked

There's a lot of ugliness described in this article. Be ready for that if you proceed to read it.

Honestly though, why do these racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic losers feel the need to deflect or hide their views (or faces)? Stand on business, you pathetic Nazi fucks.

The charade is getting old.
