Since we have a lot of new users and I have some new followers, I thought I’d share a few Bluesky tools (lists, feeds, starter packs) I built!

TBH, both Bluesky and Twitter are NOT art galleries; they are a continuous scroll where it is quite likely that the majority of your followers will not see what you post.

Reposting is absolutely normal if we want to reach new followers. People should know that.

lmao ok

i kinda always think it's annoying, but idk, maybe i just want to be seen

honestly I don’t care how most of these people vote.

I just don’t want to spend the latter half of 2028 having a bunch of loud voices talk down the Dem candidate from “the left”
you have to vote for the democrat in november 2028.

any other option - voting republican, not voting, voting third party - is completely and totally morally unacceptable and should result in your expulsion from polite society

Among other things I absolutely love Jackson’s pronunciation / dialect. The way he says “hair” at 0:48.

Hasan Abi doesn't even sincerely believe in any of the politics he spouts. I don't know why people can't see that. He's just like his lovely unkie Cenk- just a vacuous well of egocentric conspiracy theories he passes off as a politic.
Hasan isn’t going to vote for any Democrat in 2028. It has nothing to do with Newsom.

I think it’s time for Democratic leaders to start saying “if you’re a pilot or ground crew involved in a deportation that was stayed by a judge, you’ll be held criminally liable for human trafficking.” Everyone involved in these flights should have that fear in the back of their minds.
Overnight, this probable ICE flight landed in Benin and is now returning to Senegal, likely for a crew layover.

An extremely urgent reason why California needs to go all out to get more housing built...rather than slow-walk things like SB 79, as some local governments want.
NEW: The next US Census likely won’t be good for New York. The state is projected to lose two congressional seats, and with them, two electoral votes for president.

One reason why blue states are losing ground: The red states build far more housing than they do.
New York Could Lose Seats in Congress Because It Won’t Build Housing
As housing construction booms in red states, blue states are falling behind. That will likely boost Republicans in federal politics.
