1605 on November 5 Guy Fawkes and his mates try to blow up the British Parliament and fail to destroy British democracy. 420 years later on the same day the USA does a much better job of threatening the rights of everyone in the country, the fireworks are yet to start although the fuse is lit!

I’ve just found a stack of Tweets on Xwitter that failed to be sent. All were about the Orange Menace. Anyone else had the same outcome?

Hey @bsky.app is there any chance of an iPad version that expands the layout. It would be helpful to older folk like me. Thanks
