BTW since he was illegally detained and never charged with a crime, the defendants should be the ICE agents who kidnapped him. Not Mr. Garcia.

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 7

Yes. We know.

What are you DOING about it?

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

I just counted again: 252 bogus chat requests have been sent from my account by the hacker.

I reported the bot 4 days ago.

Bsky has gotten back twice with formulaic responses, but so far no actual help.

In an effort to stop this, I am signing out and deactivating my account.

I will miss you all.

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

Thank you for letting me know. I'm glad you told me.

Don't touch it, though.
I deleted the first 48 I got, one by one, and three times as many came back--as if I had sent them.

It's an evil bot.

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

Wow. So many reasons to hate the asshole.

Krassensteins @krassenstein.bsky.social · Jun 5

True.

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

The random dudes are fiercely defending themselves. And now they're having identity crises so they can consume even more of our attention.

Everything everywhere is all about them.

Hi folks,
Still no joy from bsky on the hack of my account.

Only 4 new chats have been sent today, so it is slowing.

I AM NOT SENDING THEM.

My chat settings have been and are turned off.

Just ignore any chat from this account. It's an evil bot.

Thanks for your kindness.
Sorry for the drama.🌹

And we're watching to see who's on whose payroll.

Depending on whose agenda they endorse, follow the money!
But of course VOTE EVERY RETHUGLICAN OUT.

President Crockett!!!!

No nonsense about birtherism.
Straight up, all-American name that cannot be confused with a terrorist's.
Beautiful, articulate, all woman.

The song writes itself! Jasmine, Jazzzmine Crockett, queen of the wild frontier!!

(You have to be mega-old to get this reference.)

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

Thank you, Governor.
Thank you for standing up for us amidst the federal nonsense going on.

I'm so glad you're my Governor!!!

Governor Josh Stein @ncgovernor.bsky.social · Jun 4

We’ve got to fix the DMV.

I look forward to working with our new DMV Commissioner Paul Tine, Auditor Dave Boliek, and the General Assembly to eliminate inefficiencies, modernize systems, and staff up so that the people of NC can take care of their DMV business and get back on the road.

I suppose someone on X or FB *might* read this, but...

Vewy scawey for them.
Many many words.
Some with many letters to sound out.

Does it come in pictures?

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

You reminded me of PM Ardern's new book...can't wait to listen to it.

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

Jacinda Ardern...remember her?

You probably have seen her recent media tour, but just in case not:

The former Prime Minister of New Zealand, the one who saw them through the pandemic and got assault weapons banned after their FIRST mass shooting, has a new book out.

😘

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

He's been quoting Putin talking points FOR YEARS.

There is substantial data indicating he is a Russian asset. That needs to be e plowed now.

You have a very strong voice.

TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH.

Please!!!

Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum.bsky.social · Jun 5

Why is the American president repeating Russian threats without comment?

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

And we do have *a lot* to apologize for.
I quibble with "one of."

My wording would be:

THE FACT THAT 75 MILLION US CITIZENS VOTED FOR
TR MP A SECOND TIME

IS THE MOST HARROWING
EXPERIENCE IN HISTORY FOR THE REST OF US.

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

I read this.
It included full sentences and correct spelling. And although it rambled, did not suddenly shout RABBIT! and run around in circles after its own tail.

This was NOT WRITTEN BY
TR MP.

Please publicize the shit out of the self driving crashes.

Can we please have a UN Commission on the Gaza genocide?

The accused should include the US (70% of weapons) and Germany (30% of weapons) and Israel itself.

Darth Putin @darthputinkgb.bsky.social · Jun 5

You'd think that UN concluding that member of its own permanent security council committing crimes against humanity would be bigger news.

‘Ma 2’ is in the works with Octavia Spencer set to reprise her role.

Also. I love you lots.

Beware radioactive chat requests that appear to come from my account.
They are not from me.
A bot has wreaked havoc with my lists.
Allegedly blsky is working on it, but no joy yet.
😔

BlueBirdie @theaberdie.bsky.social · Jun 5

As usual, spot on, MS Kohut!

MS Kohut @mskohut.bsky.social · Jun 5

American exceptionalism

25% of the globe’s prisoners

Highest maternal mortality rate in industrialized world

Highest infant mortality rate too

Most deaths from COVID-19 world wide

Spends more on defense than the next 9 countries combined

NOT exceptional- empire fell in less than 250 years

BRAVO @warren.senate.gov who found "Musk Used DOGE To Enrich Himself 100X"
Musk must be held accountable for the enormous damage he inflicted on all of US
The report provides 130 examples of unethical or potentially corrupt actions that benefit Musk
