Happy Thanksgiving! I am thankful for the community here.
Bluesky isn’t perfect but at its best it’s the absolute best of what social media can be: the day we got a Chicago Pope, Game 7 of the World Series.
I’m thankful that I got to share those moments with y’all.

1/ Today, ProPublica is running a piece I've been working on for a bit. It's about what happened with a devastating wave of bird flu earlier this year, as egg prices hit record highs.
And it's a story that illuminates the ways the U.S. is failing to control what could become the next pandemic. 🧵
