Get. Off. Twitter.

Follows mean nothing. Likes mean nothing. Engagement means everything. Twitter has no engagement, just fake numbers/bots.

Get. Off. Twitter.

You don’t need to cross-post. You don’t need to “just check it now and then”. You’re not “losing years of xxxx”

GET. OFF. TWITTER.

Also really don't understand men
The Guardian has named the 80 women murdered this year where a man was charged. One every 3 days.

Terrible. So many husbands, boyfriends, even brothers & sons are killers.
What is behind this?

2024 is the year I realised I truly do not understand men.

This on Hunter Biden’s pardon
I don't love it either, but I'm not sure how you tell a man that he should let his only surviving son rot in prison to respect norms, institutions, and the rule of law, when the country you devoted your life to serving just pretty comprehensively voted they don't give a shit about any of that.

I’m not going to tell anyone how to do Bluesky, but I would like to encourage the following:

- Repost stuff you find interesting/entertaining - help others to find the good people to follow
- repost small creatives who you like who are trying to plug their work

First post on BlueSky is about the failed CJS. This week's trial has been put back two days due to judicial unavailability. This means two counsel start their trial late with inevitable consequences for our already stretched diaries for the weeks to come. @thecriminalbar.bsky.social
