Fuck around: make compelling case at work for a Bluesky account Find out: am now running our Bluesky account Please, I beg you, follow @theweekmagazine.bsky.social so I don't get canned before Christmas

Umm. This is like first day at school. I’ve joined up

I have just set up this account on Bluesky. I won’t be deleting my Twitter account because there’s a bit of history within it. I will also confirm on Twitter & Facebook this is my account.

Tree of the day

It's up!!!! My Explainer video for BlueSky beginners. I cover how to find your Twitter followers, Starter Packs, Feeds, Lists, some handy-dandy tools, and BlueSky etiquette. Please watch and/or share with any newbies you know. I think it's helpful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_V2...

So then, a starter pack(et) of crisps for new followers. Your essential guide to the best potato and corn based snacks. Strap in. A 🧵 Let’s start with a simple basic cheese’n’onion. I make no apologies for this. You don’t start a wine course with a Pomerol 1/15

There’s a widespread myth that autocrats are smart, disciplined actors who act rationally. The truth is this: incompetent authoritarian fools can do a lot of damage.

As some of you might be aware, I’ve been getting quite a lot of abuse over the last few days on X after foolishly poking the MAGA-hornets nest. Anyway it all led to this point which has made it all worth it ❤️

What a great cartoon.

Where will all the misogynistic male rage go if Kamala wins?
