realizing i needed to do this as soon as i got the vibe that the bluesky admins didn't really want some of us around. i've never been real interested in chasing after clubs that don't want me. feels good to be somewhere else.

Trump and his goons are clearly hungry to murder American citizens. Showing up in inflatable costumes makes it VERY hard for them to get the kind of bloody show they want.

It should be very very clear to everyone right now that the Attorney General was asked under oath if she possesses pics of the President with undressed teens and she refused to say “no.”
