Sorry for the canned joke.

when people ask me why I like taylor fritz there are so many reasons that surprise them and this is definitely one

I’m proud to be woke af, because this is the true meaning of being a selfless member of society!

Breaking up with your X is freeing

Facts matter. Science saves lives. Anti-science destroys them.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

“after the holidays” is the weakest shit I have ever heard in my life. Are they fascists or aren’t they, Brian??

Feels very Brexit

The Russian ruble in freefall — having breached the 100 barrier despite a 20% interest rate — is a beautiful sight to see.

Good evening. We are preparing a new build for DELTARUNE Chapter 1+2 using the latest version of GameMaker LTS. Next Monday, you can help us test if you are interested. (11/25 USA time) Ideally, there are no changes from the current version. (We are testing to make sure that is the case...)

Trump is telling us that he’s going to fire hundreds of thousands, deport tens of millions, kick tens of millions off their healthcare & cut hundreds of millions in social programs and Ma and Pa MAGA STILL believe all of this shit is going to help them in some fucking way. Narrator: it’s not.

Hello to the Bluesky community! We're trundling on in with an announcement; the Steam Autumn Sale starts next Wednesday, November 27th with deals on games of all types - from games that are blue, to games that are about skies, and everything in between.

Take this as a win for the good guys.🥳 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President. It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me. Dammit, America. 😞

I love that when I say "the good place" and "the bad place" everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

Current hero

I wear their scorn as a badge of honor.

House Ethics Republicans are now complicit in burying the report into Matt Gaetz, voting against its release (despite the issue being serious enough to warrant an investigation in the first place). Trump says jump, Republicans say "how high" -- even if it means shielding sex trafficking of a minor.

despite the world becoming scary i still have a perhaps niave but unwaivering belief that a better world is possible

Sigh.

not to be too harsh but what’s the use of transgender representation in congress if they will immediately give in to fascist demands. genuinely what’s the purpose to this at all here

Thanks to everyone including me in so many Starter Packs. That said, I'm still in a state of shock trying to process what happened to our country since the election, so I won't be posting on a daily basis. I'll be back at some point, but please forgive me: healing takes time. 💙 you all, Mar🐫

Happy birthday to one of the GREATEST and most consequential Presidents of my lifetime, who deserves a TON more credit than he gets. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRESIDENT BIDEN!!!! 🎉

Thanks for your patience as we navigated some technical difficulties today! Moving forward, the performance issues you may have noticed should hopefully be resolved. TL;DR we're so back

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish. Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part. Who’s with me?

Are you a social media manager running an account for an organization or high-profile individual? Or do you own a website and want a simpler username? On Bluesky, you can verify your account by setting your website as your username. We just refreshed our how-to guide:

Elon thought he was paying $44 billion to buy Twitter, not Truth Social. But with the exodus from X, that’s essentially what he ended up with. The more it turns into a MAGA echo chamber, the less his investment is worth - and the less successful he is at achieving his goal of helping Republicans.

Being at lunch at our aforementioned nonprofit staff meeting was at least a delicious moment (I got to break the news and I yelled MATT GAETZ JUST PULLED OUT)

At this rate, the number of Bluesky users will exceed Twitter users within the next eight months. Incredible.

If we didn’t believe the US was worth saving we’d simply move on and ignore you. Believe in the you that we believe you can be, not the you they are telling you to be. Being brave doesn’t mean not being afraid, it means standing up to evil and injustice even when you are afraid.

I guess now we know what happens when Evangelical Mike smokes weed.

It’s funny as hell that MAGA followed us over here in an attempt to troll. Nope. I’ll engage with you dumb mfs at the bad place when I feel like it. I’m insta-blocking over here.

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies. #bydhttmwdi

Took a non-standard route to the office today. Saw my first ever Harris sticker and this:

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

sorry to begin your day with this but your occasional reminder that most of mainstream media are ghouls and that Joe is an Aaron Sorkin republican

Woke up to 150,000 followers, which is a heck of a way to say "good morning." Thank you, folks, for giving me a follow and for being part of Bluesky. If you're new, I hope you like it here. To celebrate 150K, I've made a donation to World Central Kitchen, which is feeding those in need. wck.org
