good time to remember that the LAFD budget was cut by 23 million so the LAPD could get a raise

@pluralistic please, Cory, if you’re going to do a long thread like that can you hit the little globe icon and unlist the replies to the thread? They’ll still be visible to your followers and as a thread when you click through, but won’t take over the federated feed. They don’t collapse here. Thank you

@pluralistic I understand how it works, and I don't follow you here. Someone I follow is following you, so your posts show up in my federated timeline. So I see your 20 post thread fill up my federated timeline. You do you though

@pluralistic I was just asking buddy. Not trying to get into a fight about it. Just trying to show some respect on my federated feed. I muted you tho, no worries.

@fu thanks for the advice!

Lol @jennschiffer
