Most people agree with you.
I was on Twitter (I’ll never call Twitter “X”), for 12 years, and the last year, Twitter turned into a cesspool.

la-culebra.bsky.social•41 days ago

same but then i saw someone call it Xitter and him Xitler and it improved my life.

madameoconnell.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ironically, BlueSky has much less BS

autopostai.bsky.social•41 days ago

You're a horror movie buff, a social media skeptic, and a fan of AI-fueled NSFW art? I'm both intrigued and terrified.

If only the initials weren’t “BS."

for-petes-sake.bsky.social•41 days ago

I’m disappointed I missed the horror movie question ☹️

gailsimone.bsky.social•41 days ago

You didn’t!

for-petes-sake.bsky.social•41 days ago

Oh ok. Then I am not disappointed 😁.

manofthetown.bsky.social•41 days ago

I'm so glad to hear you say that. I need my daily dose of Gail and I'm not going back to Twitter.

domevans.electricmarshmallow.com•41 days ago

Twitter has been a mess for the last few years. Here has been a breath of fresh air.

sayaashrah.bsky.social•41 days ago

Abandon the nazi bar, Gail, they don't deserve your light there, and the more good people like you leave, the better we can make this place 🙏🏽💜

whisprrr.bsky.social•41 days ago

I would have answered there but I left twitter...🤷‍♀️

dozy-willy.bsky.social•40 days ago

Bluesky is better than twitter because over there someone is torturing Digimon fans.

casperfox.bsky.social•40 days ago

But...Digimon are the champions!

betalogan.bsky.social•40 days ago

the hubris to call themselves champions. champions of what?

I far prefer Bluesky although ATM I don't get many replies on either but it's growing more and more

Gail, the answers are the horror on the Horrid Website formerly known as Twitter.

You are one of the reasons I still have an account on the Horrid Website. Do I need to get @nicolascottart.bsky.social to create more sexy Nightwing bum art to make you finally Quit the horrid website?

happyguydublin.bsky.social•41 days ago

Maybe it’s time to delete your Twitter so?

12milegeo.bsky.social•40 days ago

I'll say here what I said there.
You should watch Kwaiden.

jrloflin.bsky.social•40 days ago

Probably a bit late, but one that scared the snot out of me as a child was Devil Dog: The Hound of Hell. No idea how it holds up these days, but it has been uploaded to YouTube.

ditoalvarez.bsky.social•41 days ago

You're right! Blue Sky is ten times better than X

hohotash.bsky.social•15 days ago

it's twitter, dude. calling it x is giving elon what he wants.

neomonsterisland.com•41 days ago

A little bit of BS is good for anyone

robotmeile.bsky.social•40 days ago

I knew it was time to leave twitter when I had to lock my account to stop the people I blocked seeing my tweets. There were 1000s of transphobic people I had blocked. But also I missed being able to interact with the fun people I didn’t know. Bsky is much better for that!

timewarpjf.bsky.social•41 days ago

Oh absolutely, I left Twitter when it became clear they wouldn't do anything about the abuse you get on that site.

delphinedenton.bsky.social•41 days ago

You might enjoy this subreddit too: https://www.reddit.com/r/CreepyBonfire/s/HInJSzHG8u

wondersnorbet.bsky.social•41 days ago

I agree, still, I made one post approving of veganism as a diet/lifestyle, and now I'm flooded with vegan promotion materials and posts, in German!, but that's ok!

1chaosplace.bsky.social•40 days ago

Once on the bird place I made a sarcastic comment that was in agreement with the OP and was dog piled by some actor’s fans because he quote tweeted me and *none of them* stopped to think. That was a lot of blocking for “hey, we’re all on the same side here.”

kingofsidequests.bsky.social•41 days ago

I'm enjoying Bluesky. Fewer bots/spam accounts and no one trying to argue with me.

marymacmixes.bsky.social•41 days ago

😂😂😂

aridyn.bsky.social•41 days ago

I love it too.. I only go to X now to see what they are pissed off about each day.

ianface.bsky.social•41 days ago

juddtaylor.bsky.social•41 days ago

I still feel like there just aren't enough film people on Bluesky. Time to time, I'll check in on Twitter and it just seems like there's so much more film discussion going on there.

I try to ask as many people as I can to make the switch to Bluesky. I hope more will.

redrocket.bsky.social•41 days ago

I can't be the only one who read that as Bullshit is better,
And mistook it as permission

thedarkoverlord.bsky.social•40 days ago

That's because all the cool kids aren't *using* Twitter anymore

jameshatesnazis.bsky.social•41 days ago

Also: fewer Nazis.

thesocialjusticegm.bsky.social•41 days ago

I too have a great love of BS.

alexanderthegreatt.bsky.social•40 days ago

I'm not so sure.

psr1973.bsky.social•41 days ago

You should totally nuke your twitter account, don't give Nazis the pleasure of your awesomeness.

geekboyeric.bsky.social•41 days ago

I’ve been active here 6 months, and no attacks by bigots on random posts about Star Trek or Drag Race or whatever, no slurs thrown at me by strangers, in comparison to Twitter, it’s paradise. Is my “reach” as big? No. But I’ll take the peace of mind over more followers.

isidoresdragon.bsky.social•41 days ago

The caliber of followers is better here too. I had more followers on Twitter, but I only ever interacted with like..a handful of them? The vast majority I could never tell if they were people or just bots.

geekboyeric.bsky.social•41 days ago

That too.

dennyuk.bsky.social•41 days ago

orcishlaw.bsky.social•41 days ago

As a straight white cis man, I am horrified by the concept of being lectured by people who don't have a clue what they're talking about.
It's never happened to me, but I have some opinions on how you, a woman, should be responding to it.

thatgeekbarry.bsky.social•40 days ago

I got suspended from Twitter for standing up for Trans rights and immigrants rights.

Twitter is a cesspool.

Only thing I miss is I had a follow from Gail on Twitter and not here. 🤣🤣😜

auferre.bsky.social•41 days ago

We may still need some work on the "recognizing humor" part.

erinlsnyder.bsky.social•41 days ago

Plus, the initials are BS, which makes for a delightfully juvenile bonus.

eruanion.bsky.social•41 days ago

I did just run into someone whose entire thing was screaming at other people that they were wrong. Then replying with mockery if you asked them to explain how you were wrong
