Seconded. This is not a stupid game, it’s serious.
Mae B Someday Soon @mspoint1106.#MSNBC, please spare us #SteveKornacki and his polls ballyhooing Republican's support for tdfg less than 24 hours after the J6 indictments. It has no value other than to bolster the media's pro-tdg, anti-democracy narrative.10:46 AM - Aug 02, 2023

I haven't been here for a while and I'm sorry about that. The truth is, I have too many irons in the fire, but when life gets crazy I need a thing like Twitter to find my bearings. Is Spoutible it?
That's what I've come back to find out.
I'm probably leaving Twitter/X:

I dream of the day when Twitter is filled with a bunch of angry paid blue checks with no one to harrass anymore. Just lonely bullies yelling at each other.

Sally O'Malley @SweetnessWhitmer signs bill that strikes 1931 abortion ban from Michigan law.04:37 PM - Apr 05, 2023Whitmer strikes 1931 abortion ban from Michigan law | AP News
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed legislation Wednesday repealing Michigan's abortion ban from 1931 that made it a crime to assist in an abortion. The abortion ban, which fueled one of the largest ballot drives in state history, had been unenforceable after voters enshrined abortion rights ..

I thought my Spoutible url would take people to my page. It doesn’t. It goes to the Spoutible page and I can’t figure out how to fix that. This happened on Twitter.
Is there a workaround?

A fifty foot statue in South Dakota called 'Dignity' was done by artist Dale Lamphere to honor the women of the Sioux Nation. Should be more publicity for displays likes this.

I sometimes get asked why, as a German, I engage in American politics.
Because we've been there.

Let me get this straight: Every bill the Republicans introduce attempts to subvert the democratic process and give the party power over American lives.

I'm trying to get used to #Spoutible after years at Twitter, and it's not easy for me. I'm a monthly subscriber so I believe in S, but I'm not getting the hang of it. I feel alone here, without a way to engage.
I don't see long conversations.

I'm not sure I'm liking the Spoutible rating system. What does it mean, anyway? I'm now at 14% normal, but I'm seeing someone who is pro-Ukraine rated at 50% "Disruptive".
Who gets to decide? Is it bot-driven? What does any of it really tell us?

The truth comes out: The hostage release happened after Reagan's swearing-in because the GOP told the Iranians they'd get a much better 'deal' under him.

I may be one of the few people you know who has never missed an Oscars telecast. I watched the first one in 1953, when I was 16.
I'm thinking about missing this one.
The thrill is gone. Mediocre movies did it.
Can I break my own record?
I'll let you know tomorrow.

It's about damn time. Fox News should NEVER be on U.S military bases, let alone promoted by the military.

I am watching MSNBC and listening to their coverage of Tucker Carlson's take on the J6 videos. What he is telling his viewers is - literally - making me sick to my stomach. Can he be sued for his reckless disregard for the truth, like Alex Jones was?

People are surely searching for it because it's new, but any uptick in searches helps us build this platform. This is an easy way to help @cbouzy .06:35 PM - Mar 06, 2023

We need the Blues in the southern states so don't dismiss or discount them. They're valuable assets in those states where their numbers will need to grow if we're ever going to combat the fascist attempts at a takeover.
Josol @Josol1626Please stop saying people in Fl. deserve what we are getting or we should just move. Moving is not an option for me, When you have no national /state support from the Dems, gerrymandering, voter suppression & false messaging we need your support not criticism. This could happen to your state too!07:20 PM - Mar 06, 2023

Ask the Republicans why? Nobody ever asks them the right questions--those questions they'll never be able to answer honestly.
Sure, they'll lie, but we know they're lying.
They know that we know they're lying.
Now all we have to do is figure out how to make them stop.
