I can’t believe Nicki Haley had her nerve to say she doesn’t believe we’re a racist country and every day there’s a new ‘first black person’ to this or that… in 2024.
déjà vu @AnonymBeyoncé becomes first Black woman to top Billboard’s Country songs chart with Texas Hold ‘Em. Beyoncé is also the first woman to top both the Hot Country Songs and Hot R&B/Hip-Hip Songs charts since the lists began in 195809:50 AM - Feb 21, 2024

Something I don't have to post on Spoutible bc Bouzy doesn't allow the trolls to live here:
Trolls (maybe Russian) are sharing AI photos of blonde, white people and declaring they are the "real Americans."
Arguing w/them only amplifies their hate message. You will never win by arguing. They win.

I would add, freedom IS responsibility. There is No Freedom that doesn't come with that payment.

Today is World Ovarian Cancer Day. I am a survivor of this awful disease. Thought I would share a thread of my journey.

In 2021, COVID-19 took my mom. I didn't have many photos of her when she was young a woman, so I took the photo from her 1969 citizenship documents, restored it, and then turned it in to a glass portrait.
Today was her birthday.

A word about E. Jean Carroll's testimony that she didn't scream. It's BS that the 1rst instinct is to scream when sexually assaulted. That's the narrative of perpetrators & Hollywood writers. The 1rst instinct is most often to freeze from shock, just as she described. The BS about rape needs to 🛑.

Threads will be available in a few days. It's something we have been working on.
Tim Wise @TimjacobwiseAny idea when we might be able to do longer threads on here? I love this site so much, AND there are some things that are best said in more than a single spout. Responding to oneself with a new spout and following the thread that way seems hard to follow, at least for me. Any chance of this?08:01 AM - Apr 26, 2023

Our true friends are those who are w/ us when the good things happen. They cheer us on & are pleased by our triumphs. False friends only appear at difficult times, w/ their sad, supportive faces, when, in fact, our suffering is serving to console them for their miserable lives. - Paulo Coelho

Overheard on Broadway:
Audience Member: “Are you the viola player?”
Violinist: “Violin”
Audience Member: “Where’s the viola?”
Violinist: “We don’t have one”
Audience member walks dejectedly away

On-set medics had been called repeatedly to a scene that one contestant described as a “warzone” played out in frigid temperatures.

I tried an intro spoot; saw it not. Made a reply; saw it not. This is another attempt at an intro spoot. If you see it, please wave. Or whatever cute name we use, here.

If a Chinese balloon floats over Montana and they see its shadow, will Spring be early or late?

Since we’re starting off fresh here, how about not starting the trend of following someone just to get a follow back, then unfollow a couple of days later thinking I won’t notice? I check this daily. Just don’t be that guy 👍🏻

As white middle-aged man, I am excited to see how a Black-owned/operated social media platform will differ from all the others.
I know the functionality & appearance of @Spoutible was designed to feel similar to the Bird app, but @cbouzy says the experience will be very different. So far I agree

Do yourself a favor and watch the 1619 Project on Hulu. Then, buy the book. And read it!

What is this, day 4?
I've followed tons of people with 0 posts and few followers, simply as a follow-back. On the bird app, that would be a recipe for attracting trolls.
So far, nothing ugly. Not too much news and info posting yet, and too few of my old follows, but it's pleasant here.

Cold brew coffee is amazing. Didn’t think we could improve on coffee as a society, but we have.
