Really hype for the launch of this service

rabagast.bsky.social•4 days ago

i'm overseas and fear it might be a bit far for the pigeons, do you also provide some kind of message in a bottle kind of service?

So you all have one of those super cool pinecone looking dovecotes!!!

emilyrose.bsky.social•4 days ago

I feel like you would have mentioned it a lot, but you never know.

publiusmaximus.bsky.social•4 days ago

I feel like that's the ONLY thing they would talk about.

emilyrose.bsky.social•3 days ago

They’d still talk about product safety too, but every skeet would have some reference to the pigeons somehow. Like “our roof pigeons say test your smoke detectors” or “the messenger pigeons on our roof want you to anchor your furniture.”

publiusmaximus.bsky.social•3 days ago

YES!

emilyrose.bsky.social•3 days ago

They should probably get some pigeons just for this. If they don’t have any wild pigeons living on their roof, which they probably do, and could incorporate into messaging even if they’re not messenger pigeons. I like “our roof pigeons” as a phrase.

emilyrose.bsky.social•3 days ago

@cpsc.gov should locate and get to know their building’s roof pigeons so they can properly attribute product safety advice to them. This seems like an excellent, highly professional use of work hours.

discretion is the watchword of the pigeon messenger service

If it was going to be any government agency, it would be... well, the CIA first. But then it would be you.
