X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.
Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?
If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

usually after I block I just resign them to the oubliette but that was a jaw-dropping level of callousness from a profile with cishet white Resist Mom energy

the progression of AIDS treatment in my lifetime, from how terrifying it was as a child in the 80s to stories like this 40-odd years later, is genuinely one of the human race’s most awe-inspiring scientific achievements. it was a nonnegotiable death sentence for SO LONG
After nearly three decades, a Minnesota summer camp for kids with HIV/AIDS is closing and up for sale... because retroviral drugs are so effective that there aren't enough campers.
Science works, y'all.

Two things are true:
1) The great man theory of history is hot garbage. There is no special magic boy who will fix or ruin everything For everyone else
2) You are irreplaceable. No one else can do the things you do the way you do them. You matter. The world would not be the same without you.
