Mostly, this looks and acts very similar to X.
• You can post, reply to posts, like, repost, quote-repost, DM.
• Following and unfollowing works the same.

One time I was at a bar in Prague and Johnny Cash was sitting next to a couple of huge guys who fell off their stools. He tried to help them but couldn’t, so I reached down with one arm and pulled them both up. Johnny asked “the hell are you doing?” and I said “righting Czechs your ass can’t, Cash”

Yesterday, I learnt that faggots, in a region of the UK, are a kind of meatball made with organ meats.

Just a few months ago, Spark Space stayed open throughout the invasion of Gaza City, providing electricity, internet, and shelter for a hundred kids to take school exams.
This is their commitment. And this is our duty and honor—keep Spark open: 100/300 chuffed.org/project/spar...

What we need to set up are a force, a private force that will essentially find anti-national elements, in beer halls, at universities, at jobs, and take care of them. There’s no need for the local police to get involved. Of course we’ll go by a list.

I was just reading about healthcare in the USA, and, well, fuck.
I mean, people bleeding out in an accident begging bystanders not to call an ambulance because of the cost, postponing cancer treatment… JFC.
