I honestly cannot say this isn’t true. Indeed I thought of this possible explanation of the Tesla-torching — propaganda value for trump/ musk and collecting insurance $$ for unmarketable cars that are sitting on the lots losing value daily.
Interestingly, despite being surrounded by cameras, no protesters have been apprehended for teslatorching yet. #tesla#burningteslas
I thought Harris ran an effective campaign — one of the pillars of which was circumventing the trump-oriented media. She had much ground to cover in a compressed time frame.
I just learned that more than 125 years ago Pres McKinley used high tariffs to extort Canada to become our 45th state. The below article discusses this & possible reasons behind trump’s tariff flipflops!
If you’re talking about interacting on BlueSky, it sounds like unless a BlueSky account has permitted the bridge (like @emptywheel.bsky.social ), you have to go to the trouble of signing up for a BlueSky account separate from your new & old mastodon accounts. I got to follow EW & I’ll live without the others.
👍🏽Absolutely! So @emptywheel.bsky.social went to the trouble of bridging with the Fedi, probably cuz she was already on mastodon. The others I’ve tried to follow without success migrated to BlueSky from threads, so not clued into the Fedi. Thanks SO MUCH for the explainer!
Take a deep breath. Search @bsky.brid.gy Follow it & accept the follow back.
Ps—I did this & was able to follow Ty wheel there but not many others Most want me to sign in & im not sure what my sign in is for my brd.gy account. Maybe others can help @stux
@GottaLaff@TheTepidEmperor You got the follow back? Maybe do search for Empty Wheel & look for bluesky account. There are some EW bots as I recall—look for the one with the big following. Not sure—is this right? Anyone?
I used the bridge to Blue Sky a couple weeks ago to follow Empty Wheel & it worked just fine—I pressed follow & Empty Wheel was on my feed. But when I tried to follow other BlueSky accounts, it asked me to sign in or sign up. So I tried to sign in with my bridge user name as I understand it: bronakins.mastodonworld.social.ap.brid.gy but it asked for a password. Help — what am I doing wrong? #mastodon#bluesky#bridgy
Yeah—Announcing the raid ahead of time is an invite to organized resistance, which can lead to violence & provide trump his excuse to declare martial law.
If it doesn’t doesn’t, there will be a new raid on another city next week.
Think of trump’s 2017 Muslim ban & the protests it triggered; only this time the protests are quelled by US troops under the direction of Hegseth. Scary‼️
It’s like high school mindset —people wanting to be being “popular.”
IMO those who stayed on Twitter after it became a toxic oozing pustule called X, because they had many followers there, owe it to those followers to LEAD them to a place where they can enjoy a better social media experience.
In fact, a person with a 100 k followers on X led me to mastodon.
I saw posts here recently from Blue Sky accounts. Some were interesting, so I might wish to interact with them.
I’ve noticed with Threads it seems one way; I can follow some (but not all) accounts, but in any event they don’t see any comments from me.
Will BlueSky be similarly limited ? Is it possible and safe to follow accounts there? Any info or advice about interacting with BlueSky or Threads is welcome. Thank you! #mastodon#bluesky#threads
Ya don’t think trump violated FCC rules by talking about a dead golfer’s dick on live tv, or urging a that a critic be shot by firing squad, or madturnating them fellating a microphone??? Get a GRIP!
Nice article — covers all the basics, plus the present-day political pitfalls. There’s a lot of info in here that PARENTS of TennVogues’s target demographic might need a refresher course on!
