This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

I don't want to be on ghastly x anymore but it's where a lot of my sales come from so this post is a brazen request for shares to spread the word about my work on a kinder platform that isn't run by a dangerous megalomaniac! www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Sara... #selfemployedartist #ukgifthour #shopindie

If you think my friend Sandi Is correct Drop a 🦋 and share

What moron at @cnn.com thought it was a brilliant idea to keep Scott Jennings on the network while pushing Jim Acosta to leave?

Viewership on CNN and MSNBC has cratered since the election. People have completely lost faith in legacy media.

Three critical things precede decline into a totalitarian state. 1) Crack down on journalists, researchers, civil society orgs. 2) Oligarchs align with and became synonymous with government. 3) Capture of the courts and law enforcement With enough time we know the destination for this path.

No #adoptee will find these stats surprising

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

It is almost like this was predictable and yet there seems to be no self-reflection by the legacy media. Perhaps that is why they are losing trust, influence and customers.

Don't cross the Amazon picket line today, obvz, but that doesn't mean you can't take advantage of Black Friday promotions from indie creators and small businesses! BLUESKY ARTISTS AND PUBLISHERS: Drop a link to your Black Friday promotion below! I'll repost! I have 40k followers, maybe it'll help.

The revolution started with an oligarch taking over the country and plundering it until there was almost nothing left, while the rest of the world welcomed them. It was regular people who stood up and said enough; were met with bombs. The revolution is just and the liberation of Syria is necessary.

Always worth another read. #adoptionistrauma 🥚 @notalegalrecord.net www.notalegalrecord.net/archive/four...

Be careful using random people's block lists. MAGA is creating them pretending to be liberals.

From SEMAFOR (below): The Chinese Communist Party has now admitted that it was using the Musk Algorithm to spread disinformation—and that the rise of Bluesky is a major threat to it. This tells us everything we need to know about what Twitter was and is—and who the new co-POTUS Elon Musk was and is.

it's clear now that republican trolls are squatting here. i know it's tempting to engage, but i cannot stress enough that blocking is the only way to preserve this community. block and move on. block and move on. block and move on.

Remember new users are coming on daily, unsure of engagement. The more posts you like and reply to, the strong the platform becomes !

🧵 @llmunro.bsky.social gave me permission to recreate her outstanding Twitter thread of writings about the history of family separation + plenary adoption as it’s practiced in the US. It also includes additions from others on Adoptee Twitter. Here we go!
