I like Bob.

Don't panic Organise

Inhumanity “won” the election. We may end up needing community soup kitchens to feed our neighbors. If so, we will make it happen. In each other our strength and resilience lies. Our humanity is our greatest strength. Truth is the sword of justice.

While in Congress Joe Scarborough…… *Said the US should leave NATO and the UN *Wanted to eliminate the Dept. of Education *Wanted to ban abortion *Wanted to cut Medicare *Voted against raising the minimum wage *Received a 95 percent lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union

@jeffjarvis.bsky.social is bang on here. We have become gaslit on these anti-democratic tendencies, next level tendencies, and now accept it like it's just another day. It's a slow destructive creep.

In the split second I get one iota of hope, someone comes along that I trust and starts in on the apocalyptic crap. I don't know what to think anymore. Some are pointing out things that make me feel better, while others are talking about how we'll never get out of this. Jesus.

I'm in panic mode now. After impressing to people they need to not panic and fight, I'm in full on panic mode. After 9 days, it's hit me. This sucks.

What the hell is wrong with Jared Moskowitz? youtu.be/YCtB23ZFyf8?...

Funding genocide will be Biden’s legacy.

GET ALL OF YOUR VACCINES NOW PEOPLE.

I just put up a post with practical advice about cleaning up our digital practices in an era of potential Trump surveillance. Please read and share. Let’s help each other think through how to stay safe in this new reality. (Also - consider subscribing to the Digital Drumbeat. It’s free. 🙏)

This is absolutely brilliant

Good news: Twitter is collapsing. And this chart doesn't even show the last two weeks—which have seen the largest exodus in site history. There are reports from Newsweek and others that Twitter may merge with Truth Social. If that happens, the last collapse of Twitter may happen almost overnight.

As expected, JD Vance says the US could drop support for NATO if Europe tries to regulate Elon Musk’s platforms.

Please read this.

Not sure if I'm doing this right, but anyone tell me how I can get lists that other people have and post them under my own lists??,

If someone is trying to troll you, I strongly advise scrolling their account. There are chaos agents trying to break in here. The account I showed y'all who was complaining about pronouns was also repeatedly trying to argue the election was stolen from Kamala. Report these folks, don't engage.

With great starter pack comes great responsibility. This pack is cooking because a directory came out the day the Swifties stormed our beaches. (And thank Yahweh for that.) Open to feedback. (Other than "add me, please," ideally.) Owe it to the space/time continuum. bsky.app/starter-pack...

For the newbies, one of the great features on here is that when someone has tried to quote-post dunk on you, hit the … and select “detach quote” and nobody will see the post or who wrote it and they will look like an asshole. (Blocking works like this too.)

Here’s a helpful feature guide for those just getting started with Bluesky

Good evening #Bluesky folks! Just saw some interesting #s! This app is the 2nd most downloaded ATM. Twitter is #29!!! Let's keep up the momentum 💪 If you're looking to connect with other #BlueResister accts for the fight ahead: Follow, RP and comment! Help your friends find you. I'll list you

This was one of, if not the most, infuriating problems I had with this campaign. The stance on genocide led me to vote uncommitted in my swing state. I haven’t lost a moment’s sleep over it, either.

I guess it's official. Twitter is a shithole app.

Yup Good times

tip for newbies: subscribe to this MAGA block list to preemptively block MAGAts on here :) (sorry I forgot to include the link before)

Good morning. ☕️✌️

Just joined and don't have a clue what I'm doing. I'll figure it out sooner or later. At any rate, I feel safe here.
