I have yet to see any marketing for Bluesky. The fediverse still takes effort, even if it isn’t necessarily complicated.
Blame Connecticut. It’s their fault. It would up benefiting the South, but it was Delaware and CT mad about larger states having more a say.
The South actually wanted proportional representation. They were growing faster and had more land.
Bluesky is far more user friendly and that’s why the people are going there. I get it, y’all love federation and ActivityPub, but no one wants to pick an instance, much less read a manifesto on decentralized social media. (Frankly, Lemmy has much of the same issues.)
I have had a Mastodon account since Elmo Muskrat bought Twitter, but it’s practically useless as few outside some specific IT-oriented users are on it. I got Bluesky, and it’s been way better as it attracts a larger variety of people.
Illegal to sell. Which means you cannot drink it as you cannot obtain it without a cow of your own.
I mean, I think people should be able to make an informed choice to drink raw milk if they want. In my state it’s straight up illegal.
Edit: so people can drink alcohol or smoke weed, but raw milk is a bridge too far?
I see no deleted comment. In any case, I said Trump would help do it. Not that I supported it.
It’s not about me fighting a 3rd party candidate. It’s that it doesn’t work in first past the post elections. It’s rare they get even 5%.
Lies! I’m not calling for genocide. I oppose genocide, I oppose the war. But the fact people like you think Trump is the same as Harris erodes that sympathy.
And how many decades ago did a 3rd party get a single electoral vote?
lol, Harris had like a 100000000000 times better shot of winning than any third party candidate
I feel that way because you helped Trump.
I’m betting he helps complete the genocide. And I no longer have any sympathy for it.
There was a zero percent chance them winning, Bernie endorsement or no.
So, you’re counting on Trump, known for racist, anti-Muslim rhetoric, will do no different than Harris? Ridiculous. Trump doesn’t care, and it’s clear Bibi doesn’t care.
Also, that doesn’t tell me how that protest vote does anything. If the result is the same, then at least go for the person that won’t destroy even more lives.
My raises, baring promotion, are 2% a year. I did the math. I’ve lost $10,000 a year to inflation at this point. In aggregate it’s around $22,000 at this point.
And what, you think Putin’s favorite Jill Stein would? Cornel West?
She came far and away the closest.
What else was he to do? Sometimes the lesser of 2 evils is the only choice.
People keep saying they list due to reaching out to moderate republicans. No, they ARE the moderate republicans. They won’t do anything that will upset their wealthy donors.

Libreddit and Teddit are practically dead
It appears API rate limiting has effectively killed these alternatives. You essentially get nothing but “Too many requests” 429 errors.
Lemmy sadly does not have the active niche news and discussions I want. But now nothing can be read without going to Reddit. I hate Spez
Bodycam of Lorain Cop Elliot Palmer shooting a Golden Retriever, including multiple times after the dog tried to run away (warning - animal shot in video)

What a garbage human being this cop is. I don't even like dogs, and I can tell that dog was zero threat. Yet he shot the dog, and even continued firing as the dog was running away. And it is clear this asshole doesn't even care, and it is clear Lorain Police just want to sweep it under the rug. It is sickening.

Bourbon! For reviews, news, and distillery tours
A place to discuss bourbon-related news, reviews, the bourbon trail, BUT NOT WHISKEYPORN
Bourbon Trail Map
Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.
Here is a map I made of tours and tastings on the Bourbon trail (or trail adjacent) in Kentucky. Enjoy planning!
Welcome to Bourbon!
Welcome to the Bourbon community! This is a place to discuss reviews, news, bourbon tourisim, and other things related to America's spirit. A few rules:
- No whiskey porn, store alerts, bottle pricing, or selling/trading.
- You can talk about bourbon or any other American-style whiskey (rye, wheat whiskey, American single malt, etc). Scotch & Japanese whiskey, however, can stay on their own communities.
