There's not been much to smile about recently. At least politics wise. But this week has made me grin from ear to ear. There is hope. - ThreadSky

I truly hope so 👍🏼

Finally getting off X because there's a group of like minded people all going in the same direction is something worth smiling about.

Wonderful

I felt physically sick on Wednesday but have managed to surround myself with good people IRL. And now this small, slightly wonderful, growing revolution against the Tangerine Man and the Melon...

I'm delighted to see Bluesky taking off. Threads was never an option for me given it's controlled by Zuckerberg, that's going from frying pan to fire.

ottoenglish.bsky.social•108 days ago

This is so much better

zhdar.bsky.social•108 days ago

It's like what Twitter was back in the day: 2009. A place where you were surrounded by trusted sources.

richmountbasket.bsky.social•108 days ago

Bluesky definitely needs more official accounts and "influencers", but yes.

Senators have started to come over:

Solidarity is something real, and it can change everything.

arabeagle.bsky.social•108 days ago

The Scotland result, aye?

dantebanks.bsky.social•108 days ago

Social media wise, the most enjoyable 48 hours I've had for years.

sjcouzens.bsky.social•108 days ago

Likewise!

ericbearshug.bsky.social•108 days ago

Agreed

Tides change

What on earth has happened this week to make you so jokeresque? Have I missed something?

ottoenglish.bsky.social•108 days ago

Twitter has become a chore in which I'm constantly putting up with angry and stupid people. Spending more time here than there has been like therapy

mattsecrett.bsky.social•108 days ago

Ahh, ok. Yes - it is definitely more serene here. I'd like to see some opposing points of view to generate healthy debate but the absence of vitriol has been refreshing to say the least.

wokeyspokeymikey.bsky.social•108 days ago

It's definitely not more serene

frenchieinlimbo.bsky.social•108 days ago

Fingers crossed. Even toes crossed

sheila-the-thief.bsky.social•108 days ago

I'm still not over the big orange baby, but being here is helping. Slowly.

ludditewills.bsky.social•108 days ago

Well said.

sellypaws.bsky.social•108 days ago

Oi!

ottoenglish.bsky.social•108 days ago

HELLO Great to see you here

danmax802.bsky.social•108 days ago

I dunno about grinning but moving onto Bluesky definitely made my blood pressure drop to a healthier level

shane11.bsky.social•108 days ago

It feels relatively calm, the fire and bilge of twitter/x has gone and things are just discussed… I hope this is the turning of the corner on a few things

There's always hope, you just have to keep on going.

We are about to witness an amazing hīkoi descend on Wellington to protest.
