“They don’t care he’s a criminal…a convicted sexual abuser or rapist…if he’s never read the Bible or espouses violence. They don’t believe in govt to make lives better. They reject democracy & the principles of equality. They want power & they’ll pursue it by any means necessary to get it & keep it.

6 Threaded Spouts
You just exited a 17-year toxic relationship with Twitter, and your friends convinced you to start dating again. One of your friends introduced you to Mastodon, and you went out on one date. Mastodon was too techie, and you spent the entire evening not understanding WTF Mastodon was talking about.

Let me just say: Even if Joe Biden hadn't spurred the lowest unemployment and uninsured in decades, masterfully led the coalition supporting Ukraine, ended the Muslim ban and global gag rule, actually done infrastructure, and 3,000 more—if he'd done NOTHING but oppose MAGA Nazism—he'd have my vote.

Honestly, I am fine. This is fun for me, and I enjoy the challenge. I am getting enough rest and staying hydrated. If we are going to beat the competition, we have to be better. 💗

Beth RN @Bpurkey@cbouzy spouting about upgrading infrastructure at 2:30am then wishing everyone good morning at 5:30am 1. Makes me worry. (Get some sleep, we need you healthy). 2.Makes me majorly side eye anyone offering criticisms about this platform or the team’s efforts.08:55 AM - Jul 05, 2023

Everyday, we get closer to full blown fascism and the media is treating the fascists to puff pieces that whitewash their real intentions.
And, like the past, people are doing the thing that allowed fascism to proliferate and take control: Ignoring and/or downplaying the threat until it’s too late.

hey, I wrote a thing: "this Supreme Court is making my fucking head explode," in which I explain the legal doctrine of 'because fuck you, that's why.' thanks for reading, and do sign onto my mailing list to make sure you never miss a post —

I'm not sure conservatives, who constantly bemoan cancel culture, are going to like the after effects of the Supreme Court's Colorado website case. Most broadly celebrated creative expression in this country comes from liberals not conservatives.

hey, remember when Hunter Biden got caught stealing from his own fake foundation and was forbidden from ever operating a charity again and a court forced him to attend a class on "how not to steal"? oh wait, that wasn't Hunter Biden, that was Don Jr., Ivanka and the idiot who eats library paste

Spouters, real talk. Chris created this as a service to so many of us who are from communities that have been threatened and harassed on SM. If we don't want to have outside influences and want this to be community based, we have to make it COMMUNITY BASED. Thread. Do what you can.

Christopher Bouzy @cbouzyThe Wired article talks about me using my savings to fund Spoutible, and that is true. I wanted to put my money where my mouth is and launch Spoutible without VCs. With the help of the Spoutible community, we made that happen. I also opted not to monetize with ads until the platform was stable.12:07 PM - Jul 03, 2023

This out-of-control Supreme Court must be reformed:
— 13 justices
— single 18-year term
— binding code of ethics
— full investigation of corrupt gifts

I know Spoutible isn't perfect, but look at what we have accomplished as a community in just seven months. Spoutible went from an idea discussed on Twitter, to a platform we all can proud of. The Spoutible community is a force to be reckoned with, and we are just getting started.

So forgiving PPP loans is capitalism — but forgiving student loans is socialism?
And didn’t Brett Kavanaugh get his own loans forgiven?

Rules 59 and 60 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure allow for the reopening of litigation based on newly discovered facts — or the fraud or misrepresentation of a litigant.
The 303 case MUST be reopened for further review — until the truth is 100% revealed.

With each new wave, we learn a lot, and we learned a lot over the past 72 hours. We know what worked really well, what needs to be tweaked, and what we need to scrap altogether. It's not normal to receive a 708.65% increase in traffic overnight, but it was an excellent stress test for us.
09:33 AM - Jul 03, 2023
So a fake company by a fake plaintiff, represented by the wife of a fake senator who doesn’t live in the state he claims to represent, got fake justices to issue a fake opinion that will cause REAL discriminatory harm to millions of Americans? Got it.

Hi everyone. This is the most traffic Spoutible has ever sustained, and things will temporarily break. If your spouts "disappear," it just means an issue on our backend requires fixing. We will do our best to keep the conversations flowing without going down for an extended period of time.
05:24 AM - Jul 02, 2023
And if the entire case was fabricated to create a test case for the Supreme Court?
Then all the lawyers involved should be disbarred.
And every organization involved should be investigated for violating 501c3 regs, barred from appearing before SCOTUS, and potentially dissolved

I am not feeling so bad about our downtime since they had three years to prepare, with $13 million in investments. We only had 7 months and $0 in investments.

In February, when the platform would go down daily, we made fixes and added resources/capacity to handle a sudden 300% surge in traffic. We were not expecting a 708.65% surge in traffic within 24 hours. Twitter having a complete meltdown definitely caught us off guard.

Lorie Smith’s lawyers should be investigated for ethical violations — for potentially lying to courts about the fake query for a same-sex wedding website.
And Smith is potentially liable for defamation.
The 303 case is not over. Keep pushing. The truth must come out.

Lorie Smith has never created a wedding website.
And the man she said asked her for a wedding website?
He’s a web designer.
