It was a found plant so unknown at this time. The chrysanthemum yearbooks might have clues but early editions are text and later, black and white.

What do you think made America great?

I’ve traveled the world, and every time I come home, I’m reminded of what makes this place special: the culture, the mix of people, the constant diversity. I love this country.

And I also know who truly hates America:

• The KKK
• 3 Percenters
• Proud Boys

‼️‼️‼️ Got word of a new way the billionaire in charge of SSA is fucking over the American people!!!! TLDR: This will definitely lead to people applying for benefits losing out on money, and probably some hefty lawsuits for attorneys that know what’s up. The long version is gonna be long so let’s go.

Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction.

US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.

Block on sight.

Protect your digital space.

Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.

The detach quote function will come in very handy here…
