It’s mental illness and Americans are very bad at treating and identifying the root cause.

your German Shephard over to my yard to take a shit. You won’t be satisfied until you control every aspect of the behavior of your neighbors. I have zero time for a snitch like you, you old hag.

How far does borderline personality disorder go? I have a bewitched neighbor that wants to invade the space and time of her near neighbors because she is allergic to marijuana smoke. I can see a controlling force from a mile away, I’ll stop smoking joints on the front porch when you stop bringing

If @muellershewrote.com had a genuine drop on Trump, she would’ve ended the admin in ‘17. Instead, there is a carrot in my face and I get to follow her socials for more. This is the worst sort of person on social media as it relates to actual change irl. The grift is up, lady. You didn’t deliver.

Just stop with all the “got you“ reporting on Trunp, it’s tacky and misleading and you’re only doing it because you want to funnel likes into your Patreon.

I only wake up and trade crypto when I know Gilly has a national spot and I need motivation and life force from the liberal meltdown on bluesky.

They get quiet when you call Israel into question, it’s a good fancy progressive time until she drops the I Bomb in the group chat and we all must scurry to our corners to best know how to reflect a very pro-Israel stance in a dignified and intelligent tone.

And also it’s way worse on seeing the posts of folks you follow, bluesky has some worms right now. If you’re forcing me to type a name into the search bar, your interface sucks.

I’m not going to pretend like the destruction of the infrastructure of Empire is a thing that needs to knee me every night. There is hope in the degradation of the American experiment, we might be able to have agency once more.

Almost every single New York Times story lies about this. It’s just an alternate reality, with the truth lost down the memory hole. The bipartisan support for this was because leaders in both parties were worried about the effects of TikTok on perceptions of Israel

Mr. Trump said in an executive order that the arrangement would satisfy the terms of a 2024 law, which in effect would ban the app in the United States unless ByteDance sold it. Congress passed the law over concerns that the wildly popular app’s Chinese ownership meant Beijing could gain access to the personal data of Americans or use its feed of videos to spread propaganda.

As it stands, Bluesky is a flaccid penis.

I think the most offensive person on twitter that I loved was Zeta, she was some kind of a genetics scientist that would just be boldly asd honest and deal with it later. Legend. I think she was probably a trump person, but her energy was enigmatic and necessary to set bluesky off on the right track

Avigdor Liberman is a member of the Knesset, by the way.

This has always been OUR genocide. Israel doesn't control us and never has. We control Israel.

He alleged that the IDF cannot carry out any strike in Gaza without American approval. Any attempt to reduce humanitarian supplies also requires American approval. He claimed that everything is being managed from an American operations room in Kiryat Gat.

Liberman said American drones are monitoring Gaza in real time, and that the IDF is operating under the command of that operations room.

The types of reporting that need banned on social media:

- uh-oh, looks like Donald might have run afoul of the constitution, this could be our big break, as he is clearly going to get lambasted by the courts for this one

That’s not the original Lassie and it’s bullshit you’re making me feel like it is.

I think you’re my favorite writer on Bluesky, you look fantastic. I hope Upstate has been as sweet as she appears.

Lately I've been telling people who pay me for talks to donate my fee to the St Louis Food Bank. These are hard times. In 2025, St Louis had a horrific tornado, a loss of federal aid, and now new SNAP cuts.

Help St Louis folks eat and donate here:

The Mueller Report can take a step back and reflect. I feel bad for well-meaning liberals, ya’ll have been lied to by the worst types of grifters.

The quicker ya’ll drop the “Russian interference” narrative the more honest you’ll look to your peers, outrageous that this is still a talking point for liberals.

The league semi-threatened folks for turning over baseballs to @bbl-astrophyscs.bsky.social? Hmm. That
