@alice @inthehands They will only get more efficient as they grow bolder.

@YakyuNightOwl Best. Answer.

@steter

Pessimists and cynics take a lot of heat for having historical facts and consistency of human nature on their side.

@selzero We'll have to find our own joy.

Apropos of nothing at all, the people surrounding the dangling Mussolini's seemed pretty satisfied, if not actually "happy".

*sigh*

It's been iffy for awhile, but now that Mozilla is going "all in" on AI, it's time to find a new browser.

@kibcol1049 Trust me when I say you'll spot the blind guy. It's not hard.

Having unconditional love for fascists won't protect you from fascism.

@AaronDavid United States citizens like to consider themselves "rebels".

For stupid people this means "doing exactly the opposite of what other people are doing".

@d1

Perspective helps.

I've had a half dozen toots get in excess of 20 boosts. That's practically 'viral' here.

@autistics

I'm not in agreement with him. He's in agreement with me.

We are so absolutely fucked.

@aral Alors en faisant ca eterait bete. Changez rien!

(desole de mon mauavaise francaise; j'apprend encore.)

@aral Change the word "money" to "dollars" and you'd have a nice little play on words.

Republicans would never negotiate for the bodies of dead Republicans.

Unless they're horny.

The thing about not having the Epstein files is that we're free to speculate which SCOTUS justices are explicitly mentioned. We can make up rumours until we have facts.

Ok, so let me explain this to you. I'll try to be nice.

You are on Bluesky, which I refuse to interact with for obvious (by now) reasons.

You have clearly observed this, as you have created a standard Mastodon account to run in parallel.

Aside from being a bit stupid, whatever, it's just extra work for you.

But this is the part that you don't seem to understand: I ALSO will not click on the Bluesky links that you put into your non-Bluesky account. If I wanted to be on Bluesky, I'd be on Bluesky.

But I'm not just bitching and whining because I have a solution for you:

Make your primary posts on Mastodon, then link them to Bluesky. Voila! Now people that don't want to associate with Nazis aren't forced to.

Not that I know a lot of people or go out a lot, but something like this on your house would all but guarantee that you would never actually see me there.

@Urban_Hermit I'd like a tad bit more than that. Justice would be fantastic, but I'd settle for a hole in the neck.

@hellomiakoda My neighborhood has always been a bit sketchy. While there is no 'war', I will be happy to be elsewhere (France)

@hellomiakoda Hi!

I'm only here for another month or so but will probably have to come back in a few months.

I wonder who could have seen this coming except for everyone?
