i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.
i know the desire to fight with these sick freaks is strong but resist the urge and just block. it’s better for your brain.

Notice to anyone using Linktree (especially if you're paying for it), you should probably stop.
The paid features just went from $10 to $16 a month. That's more than some phone plans and streaming services. For a page. With some links on it.
Why? So they could add more AI features we didn't want.
