The CEO of Bluesky trying to make me know who the CEO of Bluesky is and my long standing opinion is that I demand to not know who it is

I just want to live comfortably. Eat when I'm hungry. Buy a treat now and then. Get a new computer when one craps out. Phone too. A phone that'll last more than 2 years. Pay bills on time. Pay more than the minimum on a credit card. I hate this timeline. Vitamins won't fix this level of tired.

We only rate dogs. This is a bed bug. She's very cute, and we actually wouldn't mind an infestation of this particular bed bug. But please only send dogs. Thank you... 12/10 (TT: lekik25)
Probably a lot in here I know about and more I don’t.
Oh shit, are we shipping soccer players like it’s fanfic?
Lemme whisper something into your ear. Ready? Leftists don’t need an excuse to not vote for Democrats. Provide a product people want.
The “both-sides-are-the-same” drum is a 99% left-wing exercise
Mamdani got into office and instantly: • Froze rent for 2 million New Yorkers • Cut subway fares in half for low-income riders • Fully funded NYC parks • Added $680M for public schools • Launched free child care for 2-year-olds If establishment politicians actually wanted to help you, they could.
I actually don’t care what the founding fathers would say about the present and I don’t think you should either
No, that’s exactly what has been normal politics for decades, and it’s only pulled us rightward. If you’re an AIPAC candidate—if you’re a corporate Democrat, I’m just leaving that ballot line blank. No more default votes for blue MAGA.
Vote for who you think is best in the primary and then vote for whomever is not the GOP in the general, even if they are not your dream candidate. Just vote out the GOP. Not voting isn't an option. This is not normal times. This is not normal politics.
Kinda weird when people come to a revelation about needing to win elections after losing a couple primary contests to the left and not when the courts and both houses of Congress and the Presidency are controlled by the other party
I’m crying
I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!
The Democratic establishment crash-out is a wonderous thing to see. A bunch of people, their organization named after democracy, unable to handle the results of just a few popular elections, appealing to the unspoken rules of a club they thought belonged exclusively to them. Let's do it everywhere.
genuinely crazy to watch these people freak out over what is essentially 21st century new dealism
‘I’m Done, I’m Not in That F*cking Political Party’: James Carville Freaks Out After Progressives Win Big in Democratic Primaries
“A better world isn’t possible.” Harris would put us where we were, and as should be obvious by her loss to Trump, no one wants the old world back, either. We will go through you if we have to, around you if we can.
Ok, cool. If you agree that we don't need to work with corporate ghouls and genocide freaks (like Biden, Harris, Clintons, Jeffries, Schumer, etc) then we're on the same page! I strongly agree that we should work with progressives and democratic socialists who aren't perfect.
What are you going to do, moderate? You gonna vote Republican? Nah? Then no, I’m not voting for an AIPAC candidate or a moderate. We’ve had your shitty candidates for all my life, and all we’ve gotten is further to the right. The lesser evil is still evil.
YOu are jumping to a conclusion. The collation is with people you mostly agree with. Obviously.
new yorkers en masse have expressed their enthusiasm for democratic socialism. but these forty men surveyed in the waiting room of the coeur d’alene family court have a different perspective
Like many people who have worked in politics for decades, I am baffled and upset to see candidates who say they are going to try to make things better defeating candidates who say they are trying to make it more or less like it was in the years before things tipped over into Oaf-Style Fascism.
