Saw the first "Happy New Year" spike on Bsky at 7AM PDT! (Midnight on 01/01/2024 Japan Standard Time) I'm excited to see which timezones make a noticeable spike when midnight hits their region. Will keep y'all posted :)

"Your future is a horror story written by your crimes," is such an absolute A+ literary line that you'd be forgiven for forgetting it comes from the Muppets.
