Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Geriatric Democrats need to get out of the way and let AOC, a real leader, lead us.

Hey @mcuban.bsky.social can we get Bluesky to team up with rolling stone to make a shirt form video sharing social media platform? Literally every other platform is sympathetic to rapists, police violence, and nazis.

There‘s two types of people: -The basic ones that think the Enya song is called ‘Sail away’ -The wise ones who know it’s actually called ‘Orinoco Flow’

I can’t stand election post mortems. She was a brilliant candidate. She engaged a lost generation of voters and she almost won. I’m still with her.

3 years in a row for Tori! I blame the Spotify AI dj for pumpkins and Taylor but otherwise all true

There are tens of millions of Americans who now hate Anthony Fauci but they couldn’t tell you why if you asked them.

I’m thankful for everyone using Bluesky, everyone building on atproto, everyone listening to our message and sharing our dream of a better social media ecosystem that puts people first. We’re going to do this together — thanks for joining us on this journey!

Fuck Elmo and his incel Nazi bro hellscape. Bluesky is where it’s at.

The idea that those on the left will ever agree enough to be an “echo chamber” is rather funny to me. We couldn’t even agree whether to refer to Kamala Harris by her first or last name.

Deactivated twitter this morning and deleted the app. Felt so good.
