My favorite thing as a writer is when I start ranting about something on Bluesky, get it all out of my system, and then turn it into a real piece of writing.

On that note: hey, it’s me, heckling centrist Dems in the New Republic!

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!! Today is the last day of our Flytrap subscription drive. The goal for today is 159 subscriptions! THIS IS THE LAST CALL FOR THE 15% OFF DISCOUNT: the-flytrap.ghost.io/chomp

if you think that’s what’s keeping left-leaning political takes from being seen on Twitter is that they aren’t being posted rather that they are being actively suppressed by the site’s white supremacist owner, you are either too dumb or too dishonest to listen to, even on Bluesky

The wonderful old-Twitter experience of a global group chat during a live event or breaking news is a thing you can't do on Threads bc of its trash algorithms and you can't do on X bc it's a Nazi propaganda weapon, but it's really happening on Bsky now and I hope more holdouts start to discover that

And we have now progressed from data analysis to policy recommendations.

I told her that we'd calculate the cash value of her candy haul, that I'd ask her to raid her piggy bank and donate 1/3 the candy cash value to a local food bank, and that I'd add on a 5X match.

Didn't back us on Kickstarter? We have a 15% discount for new memberships, but our member drive is about to end so act fast. $55.25 for a year of @theflytrapmedia.com is a pretty good deal!!

Politically, the landscape is shifting too:

🔴 Nearly all platforms have become more Republican
🔵 But they remain Democratic-leaning overall
🏃‍♂️ Democrats are fleeing to smaller platforms (Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon)
