Am I annoyed that it seems the world is nearly two years behind the rest of us on this? YES.
Am I glad that it’s finally happening? YES.

Acceptable public answers to a “Roman salute”:
1. a Glasgow kiss
2. a Chelsea smile

I had to check, John Fetterman, who literally wears the star of david as a fucking cape, has not tweeted about the Elon Hitler salute. He has only posted about voting for border control and congratulating Marco Rubio for becoming secretary of state.
I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

I’ve picked up 12k new followers in the last three hours.
It’s going to be a significant push. Tiktokers don’t want to be trapped in Meta’s prison.

Will be interesting to see how many people come from TikTok
TikTok officially done!
Hello Bluesky, let’s become better friends 👯

Friendly reminder that if you buy a book on Kindle, you're only paying for the rights to read, not own. If a book truly gets banned, it will be taken away from digital platforms like Kindle, nook, etc. Consider getting physical copies of banned (or other) books!

TikTok's algorithm makes it a really valuable resource for connecting with communities you haven't even figured out you want to connect with yet. It can be life-changing, and people dismissing it as a dancing-teenager app are showing their ignorance.
TikTok had a massive community of #ActuallyAustistic people, likely the largest autistic community in the world ever. It included all ages and speakers and non-speakers.
It also had a large chronically ill community.
The potential loss of community for many otherwise isolated folks is significant.

If Trump brings back TikTok, Dems are fucked.

UPDATE: This is the message on TikTok right now. Letting Trump be the hero in this situation does not seem like the best strategery on the part of the Dems, but what do we know! 🤷🏻

Now that TikTok has officially gone dark, I’m re-upping my post from a few days ago to remind folks that this praise for Trump is wrong.
