MAGA folks don’t understand that the culture of Bluesky involves everyone just blocking people they don’t like without any engagement.

They think they’re “shadowbanned” by some unseen force from above.

I'm shadowbanned on bluesky. As soon as you say anything remotely conservative, you get shadowbanned and no one can see your posts there. I can't even make fun of these folks there.

I did buy some posher stuff from Sainsburys which was very nice. But I 100% chose it because it had a 'added sugar' option.

Sugar though...

Tbh, I was semi ok with it in the first tweet (rural communities yada-yada). Then 'the mater drove me to house parties' hit, and I was, oh, fuck this guy.

Hummm, added sugar 🤤

It's a reflection of a psychological addiction. Nothing more.

Also, frankly, I think all wine tastes shitty. I'll drink it, and some taste better than others, but never once have I thought, 'You know what this nice thing needs? Wine flavour'

Yeah. That's not gonna happen.

Oh, she managed that, regardless.

She was like a real life verision of people that double down after misinterpreting a shitpost.

You are replying to a woman whose diet is made up of 70% packaged potato or corn snacks. Who eats Pasta'n'Sauce by choice.
Aside from an ability to ace the diet coke test (including whether it comes from plastic bottle, glass or can) I guarantee your palate is more 'sophisticated' than mine.

Just had to drive through the graveyard from the allotment and a dog walker was absolutely determined to demonstrate her right of way, and seemed *incredibly* miffed that I respected it.
