And the reason why is @clearsky.app puts up the accounts added to a troll list before the creator was deleted and describes them as ‘subscribers’ even if you never subscribed to it. So anyone who see it months later thinks that you subscribed to it 🤦‍♀️

So this is why I keep getting blocked, some trolls added me to lists, I didn’t subscribe to them and blocked the owner whose accounts are now deleted. But somehow I still show up on these lists and some people are massblocking 🙄 @mistyswoman.bsky.social

Very good but heartbreaking article about this groundbreaking case. I remember seeing it featured on Crimewatch and being fascinated by all the forensic work. Many kids still vanish out of the care system, some will turn up but there are likely some who’s remains have never been discovered 😢

What he not saying is that his friends and cronies invested a fortune in Argentina since their guy Milei won, they stand to lose a big chunk of those fortunes the way things are going, and Argentina’s elections are in two weeks and we are tampering in them to bail Milei out.

An American walks into a bar in Belfast. He sits down and starts chatting with the guy next to him

Eventually the guy says "are you a Catholic or a Protestant?"

The American says "I'm an atheist"

The man replies "are you a Catholic atheist, or a Protestant one?"
