While enjoying today's hopeful vibe, please remember: Trump didn't plan X or organise Y. He has the reading comprehension of a 12year-old: all of *this* <gestures wildly> is being done by the smaller monsters around him who are (mostly) competent. When it happens, they won't take the day off.

I hope ppl catch on to the understanding that Internet Comments are now mostly bots. That applies to every political viewpoint. I have seen so many (correctly) condemning 'leftists' for saying "the ppl in Texas got what they voted for", but the only accounts I see saying that are clearly bots.

Every time I think the fascists' success has emptied my heart of all hope, they sharpen their spoons and manage to carve out a little more.

Look, whenever you think Trump is plotting something, just take a moment and think, "no, he's too stupid to be doing that", then rethink what he's doing and why he's doing it. Once you have a new theory, do it again. At least twice.

The chancellor Rachel Reeves has earmarked several billion pounds in cuts to welfare & other government departments ahead of the Spring Statement. Labour's obsession with growth, rather than improving ordinary people's lives will cost them the next election.

I hate to say this but, realistically, the only campaign persuasive enough to defeat Trump is... 4 years of Trump. It's what defeated him last time, and what will defeat him next time. The reason he won this time was because he wasn't campaigning against 4 years of Trump.

I *think* this is why the right are all so angry, even tho they won. These are the 'heroes' of the right - the incels are damned to viciously defend them, even tho they *know* how violently underwhelming these 'leaders' are. And they *know* we can all see through their unconvincing hero-worship.

Honestly one of the most refreshing things about Bluesky is the lack of refreshing. No more do I get a glance at what seems like a funny interesting post, only for it to be snatched away from me in a violent act of refresh, unread, unrecognised, unliked.

I cannot believe how nice this place seems. Like the early days of Threads but without that feeling of emptiness. Juat lots of people being positive about their interests and welcoming everyone into their communities. It's the best.

Bluesky asked me what I liked and I quite like Star Trek so I said SCIENCE! and now my feed is all: "re-engineer a natural signal transduction," and, "here's a picture of the sun at night, taken *through the earth*". Help.
