BlueSky is a bad site used by good people. That describes most social media sites. But BlueSky is egregiously unethical. Any of you can be disappeared for baseless reasons. I've been on social media for 17 years and never been suspended. BlueSky is the first place to do so – over Johnny Cash lyrics.

That might be his biggest commonality with Obama, who also was a regular guy, but a President being black drove the right insane. Difference now might be that the right is starting from a place that is way more openly insane
The thing about Mamdani is that he’s so normal and so many people are so weird about him. And it becomes really hard to miss the fact it’s mostly because he’s Muslim

This is exactly how I feel, not only should we keep the empty homes tax, but we should enforce it even more aggressively
The Carney Liberals want to remove the Empty Homes Tax - a measure aimed at investors to encourage them to put their units into the housing supply.
During a housing crisis, people need more homes, not a gift to investors to keep them empty.

A vacationing couple has scored big with a court ordering Air Transat pay them $7,000 for denying boarding for no reason. Advocates say the judgment is an endorsement of recording interactions with airline staff (which is perfectly legal): donotpassgo.substack.com/p/court-hits...
Court hits Air Transat with $7,000 for denying boarding to a vacationing couple
The decision, which hinged on recorded video of "egregious" and "terrible" customer service, hailed as a major victory for passenger rights

I'm usually a scold for sharing headlines w no link, but the piece is inessential - exactly who you'd go to (Ron Radosh and Joshua Muravchik) if your rolodex is outdated and you want a "modern socialism is bad" piece.
We wanted to understand Democratic Socialists of America. So we talked to two old guys who voted for Trump. (Yes, this is literally the article.)

Given how much vitriol Charlie's spouted over the years, I think some of the schadenfreude is probably deserved. What's completely unsurprising is the death threats from the Freeze Peach crowd.
There's a website tracking names, locations, social media language from people posting about Kirk's death. Such doxxing is dangerous always & esp targeting ppl for their protected speech, even when it condemns violence & Kirk's killing while questioning his messaging. www.wired.com/story/right-...
Right-Wing Activists Are Targeting People for Allegedly Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Death
Extremists and an anonymously run website are posting identifying details about people accused of celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder online. Some of those targeted are now getting death threats.
