Switching to Bluesky from the other place is the social media version of keeping your old friends, making a bunch of new ones, and dumping your toxic relationships. It’s a fresh start and it’s invigorating!

I've been on BlueSky for a few days now and it's a relief.
There is discussion - even controversial - but without those frequent derogatory and offensive comments.
Talk about projection. Oh my God. I spent four years, trying to change maga minds with facts and logic. They live in a hermetically sealed bubble of lies. From Trump, from Fox, from radio. The only thing Maggie hates more than liberals is facts. Lol
That kitchen went from Hot ..to Blast furnace… a human finger tapping of a soul less void of semi logic ..lost in an endless diatribe of anger…
“Sherry Niles??””
When I switched to Bluesky I started seeing and interacting with accounts I hadn’t seen in quite a long time over on Twitter. Twitter had screwed the site up so bad I never got to enjoy the people I followed over there. Luckily it feels like old times here.
Musk suppressed anti-fascists on purpose & boosted trolls & bigots. He even admitted to doing it with outside links, so we all know what he isn't willing to admit to
Hi Andrew Ive been able to connect with old Twitter friends because I gave that awful place up well over a year ago. I never found these people on threads some I did but since Zuck is kissing trumps ass I haven't bothered on threads
Now if I could just meet a nice man in the REAL world!!!! I really am tired of being by myself. I want to be making memories with someone. You guys want to help??
Bluesky is like the social media glow-up we all needed—keeping the good vibes, ditching the drama, and finally breathing fresh air. It’s proof that a little detox goes a long way for your timeline and your sanity.
Oh man, when you appear on Ari's or Nicolle's show, I make sure to tune in. But after what Joe did, I can't bring myself to watch others, Andrew. It's baffling why he would first go to see him and then return to his show, acting as if nothing was amiss.
Does he not understand what he has done.?
Lawrence yeah,but too late for me in U.K.
Soon as Rachel went part time i lost interest in her,before then everynight.She seems to think she is better than the rest,hence she is part time,and on alot more.Ari blows her out of the water,as does Nicolle.
Rachel does actual investigating. I heard she'll be on more with her new contract. She acts like she knows more because, IMO, she does. She does her research.
That is nice. Heritage Foundation has been infiltrating school & library boards, state & federal office, the judiciary & excutive branches of Big Brother since 1992.
@andrewweinstein.bsky.social If it weren’t for you and a few others, America would never survive another four years of tRaitortRump!! Thank You! ps they cheated somehow using starlink?
We still have to be mindful of becoming this, however.
Kudos for using the expression "the other place," btw. It's an oblique parliamentary term of art (whether deliberately intended that way or not) that always make me chuckle. 👍
It is truly invigorating for all. Liberals will create an echo chamber and continue the same rhetoric for ages because they’ll never understand the feelings of the majority. At the end of the day, this winds up being very good for all of us tbh.
Oxford University students use to refer to Cambridge as 'the other place'. And, I believe, vice versa, I have a lifetime ban from the other place. X, not Cambridge.
It’s true. Ironically, I haven’t been banned or silenced on BlueSky, but Elon Twitter shut off my account because I
wanted Keir Starmer to unlіvе hіmsеlf.
Legal liabilities? Kіllіng the prіmе mіnіstеr of Britain is a heroic act that would liberate those poor, pathetic cunts. We celebrate the French Revolution, the American Revolution, all kinds of violent events and nobody complains about that.
Still haven't figured out #hashtags of my favorites. #Velshi #politicsnation #ayman #sundayshow #maddow #thereidout #lastword #inners #thebeat #deadlinewh #weekends Have made so many friends on Twitter 🐦 that I don't want to lose.
I'm loving the breakup! Why subject yourself to toxicity when you don't have to? There's never been a time when toxicity is healthy or a reason to stay engaged! You gain nothing and learn nothing from staying involved.
Fully agree.
This place has rejuvenated my hope for open discussions and thoughts on the current political climate, without anyone calling me names or threatening my wellbeing. It’s wonderful.
It's been a journey for sure. I'm seeing folks I haven't seen since Musk took over the bad place. The conversations are way better here, too. And somewhere I found my smile. I'm not letting that go again.
That's what BlueSky is doing for me.
We can only keep things happy here iif we do not let the stalkers, trolls and losers take over. Never engage with trolls. Do not respond to their nonsense. It is exactly what they want - somebody to pick a fight with. Ignore then block, block, block. A whole bunch of them have just shown up.
I’m already making good use of mine! The trolls of X have arrived, looking to pick a fight. I block them and every person messaging me about bitcoin. I expect that eventually my block count will equal the numbers of my followers.
I don’t know. It feels too much like that time everyone left Twitter for Gab or Truth Social. The only real difference here, so far, is the lack of ads. But that’ll probably not last. Hosting and bandwidth is pricey.
I haven't done much since MySpace. So for me it's more like hanging out with a bunch of people commiserating about how awful their ex was, only it's all the same ex.
Meanwhile I'm just like oh cool I can post funny clips now
Well, since you're here, and you have a connection to the DNC, could you please inform them that their addiction to NeoLiberal bullshit has cost us our country? And that they should have listened to progressives instead of trying to court conservative voters?
I had to block an old high school friend today ! Kept triggering me saying that I was looking through rose coloured glasses! To me he was looking through white coloured glasses!
I agree. I've never used Twitter/X and certainly wouldn't now. FB has become draining, so I come to Blue Sky to feel normal again and decompress. Ahhh!
I take exception to your assertion it is a fresh start when in reality it is the same old cut-and-paste shit from the rhetoric generators of the left. May I remind you they lost us everything this last election.
Question please. When I hit subscribe the options are mute or block. Is the benefit of this list that it allows me to block all at one time? If yes…. This is amazing.
Yes you can choose to instantly mute or block everyone on a list. It will also apply to accounts that are added later to that list.
BUT it's important that you trust people who maintain lists you subscribe to. Because some of them might be trolls themselves who add people you don't want to block.

Right after we insult them.
Perfect strangers that don't immediately raise nope flags in casual conversation.

So true
wanted Keir Starmer to unlіvе hіmsеlf.
Be better.

That's what BlueSky is doing for me.
Mental health is important!
Observe how bonkers Trump now is with obvious mental decline since Musk entered into his orbit to see truth in this.
Meanwhile I'm just like oh cool I can post funny clips now
Thanks for being a peach, mate.
And yes, it indeed is a cleaned up version of what Twitter/X is now.
They don’t want to see DTs face or hear about the bad place
Here's one that I maintain.
