Hi. After much deliberation I deleted X about 5 weeks ago. I haven’t missed it at all with its doom scrolling algorithms but I’m missing something that Bluesky isn’t giving me. So I’ve joined Threads. Anyone from here who also uses Threads please hit me up so we can connect there too.

I find it really annoying when people don’t know the difference between entomology and etymology. It bugs me in ways I can’t put into words.

Pope Francis has done Australia one last service with his passing. Dutton and Albanese have both cancelled all electioneering out of respect.

Just saw a post on the other place that called Donald Trump, Trumplethinskin. Sheer brilliance. I’m adopting it for the next 4 years.

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump.
“I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.”
Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋

The US has always presented itself as the bastion of democracy, the world’s policeman and the greatest economy on Earth. But its halo has slipped. How can America expect to be taken seriously in the future when it chose to elect Donald Trump as President, not once, but twice? The US is in decline.

I’m quite enjoying BlueSky as a platform but it’s annoying the hell out of me that I have 491 followers, of which about 400 are predominantly young women with few followers and zero posts. What’s the point? There’s no attempt at interaction.
