We live in a country where the courts uphold hypothetical harm as a violation of constitutional rights while wholly disregarding actual harm.

As a former journalist I loved the informational aspect of the Bird Site.
I was able to get information about events thousands of miles away in real-time.
Can we build that level of interconnectivity on another platform at this stage in the digital age?
I don't know. But I'll stick around to see.

Telling a kid NOT to turn the bottle over to screw the top on the other day.
Me: This isn’t rocket science or brain surgery. It’s don’t-turn-it-upside-down. Physics!
Hubby: You're talking in Screenplay, again.
My husband used to call them "Rachables", but now it's "Talking in Screenplay". Hah!

In response to S Olson.
I read a story a week or so ago about new CEO meeting with Google and them coming to some sort of agreement/partnership that sort of messes with this logic
... but I like this version of reality better.
Where did this come from?

I'll never trust Jack 🤡 nor ever join that fake ass Twitter wanna be he's pitching either, I could care less for some FOMO code to 'gain access' tf outta here w/ that BS #Spoutible is home 🏡🐳 why would anyone trust someone who idolizes EM 😵💫🤢 #MeanwhileOnBluesky

Elon Musk has accomplished his goal of turning Twitter into a cesspool of blue checked right-wing bigots. This is my new home now and I hope Spoutible will make it.
P.S. Jack Dorsey showed his true colors as well so BlueSky is not an option anymore.

Going to Bluesky after what Jack did, is like asking, "thank you, may I have another?"

Robert Morton @RevMortonI cant be the first to think of this, but the organic nature of the community, the clean UI and the lack of negativity makes me feel like I am at the beginning of what Twitter was... Like, dang I miss the full order of kindness without the side of condescension!09:31 PM - Jul 01, 2023

In response to Keep On Kraken.
It makes me want to tear my hair out seeing how many otherwise sane and intelligent people are not only running to bluesky but encouraging others to do the same.

Welp, I can't like, comment, post, or DM on the old site. So, please know if you see me silent, I'm okay. I've just been silenced by the free speech police.
Happy to be on a multitude of alternatives with you lovely people!

Back in LA (after 2 glorious months in Cologne, Germany), found my 2007 sign & red* shirt, & I'm off to join my #WGAStrong colleagues for a walk & a rally! Come on down & say hi & JOIN US! (*Yes, I know "blue is in" for this #WGAstrike , but I don't have a blue WGA shirt yet!)

Here’s Another Reason to Distrust Corporate News Media (As If You Needed More) | by Jelani Greenidge | May, 2023 | Medium
Just now, scrolling through my Twitter feed, I saw a headline in Variety explaining that Warner Brothers Discovery, the parent company behind the streaming app Max — formerly known as HBO Max — is…

Remember Cheers? I feel like Twitter was our cozy bar where we could just chill. Sometimes trouble makers came in, but they were quickly sorted.
Until Sam retired and the bozo who bought the joint burned it to the ground.
That's why finding a new spot's so darn hard. The old place's still burning.

More proof that “genius” Elon Musk fundamentally misunderstands the website he wasted $44 billion buying.
Social media doesn’t work by selling people the ability to read tweets, dumbass. It works by selling eyeballs to advertisers.

Here's the thing—there will always be people trying to snuff out our lights. Because they don't like the brightness, the colors, the vividity, the freedom of expression.
But your light can never be eclipsed. It might diminish sometimes... but only if you let 'em do it.
Don't let 'em. Shine bright.

There is a lot of misinformation about the WGA contract negotiations. Writers are seeking a fair deal. This is the 2023 Pattern of Demands the Negotiating Committee is trying to work out. Hoping that we don’t go on strike, but if we do it’s because the studios said no to this…

Hey guys! It's me, Danny D. This is my first spout. Have not followed or searched this site yet. I just wanted to let you know I exist as I do not know what will come of twitter this week.
In the meantime, here is a picture of Starsky and Hutch that you did not expect.
