I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.

@laist.com has tips from California's insurance commissioner on how to contact the state and start the claims process, and how to keep you and your loved ones from falling for scams.

It's really not about leaving the other platforms. It's about bringing people here and giving them more engagement than the other apps.

That's what people want. Engagement. Takes nothing to offer it

If there is a user on another app that you like, DM them and invite them here. Post and tag me

IF YOU BELIEVE THE MANY SHOULD HAVE CONTROL OVER THE FEW, this is your time.
As a decentralized platform, @bsky.app is probably the last, best chance for this to happen

This has nothing to do with me. I'm just stating the obvious.

It has everything to do with what the 1.2m @bsky.app users do.

X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.

Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?

If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Another transition. Hi friends!
