17-year-old Stephen Miller: “Torture is the way to go…Torture is a celebration of life and human dignity.” Of course he said that. Why am I not surprised?

Whoops Don't ya just love live TV?

When Russia invaded Donetsk , but not Kyiv yet, many ignored. My friends from Donetsk said then, all it needs for people to really see there is war, is for bombs to hit Kyiv. And then bombs hit Kyiv , and people did see. I just hope you will see before bombs will hit your city.

This is Sumy today after missile attack. When I was little I’d often go here to visit my godmother. We’d go mushroom hunting. Today Russian army hit it with missile. 88 people are wounded, including 17 kids. Kids just like me when I visited my godmother. Monday.

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

Is anyone surprised that 10 of the January 6 attackers have already been charged with new crimes?

I have so much respect for people who still write long-reads on the russian propaganda structure, articulating every detail and breaking it down with facts and logic, 3 years into this, idk where you recruit the energy and how you don’t throw your device across the room several times a day

Showing off a usual Wednesday night sound in Kyiv. ⚠️volume up⚠️And of course as soon as I decided to go to sleep russia decided to attack us with drones

It seems like the history of Paradise is written in the things we didnt do.

Good morning!☕️✌️

Engagement here is off the charts compared to Twitter which only tells us Twitter was lying to us for years about what we were seeing. We should be quite angry that they promoted the big ones and left the small ones to suffer

I come to Bluesky to find out what happened 3 minutes ago. I go to a Meta platform to find out what happened 3 days ago.

Leaving Twitter is like leaving an abusive relationship.

Midnight in Kyiv. Calm. Power at home. I‘ve finished that book about 1938. Oh my. I've already missed it. There is a new documentary about Churchill on Netflix. So good. I am stuck in the wars and warcoffee. Night-night 🫂

I think framing Bluesky vs Twitter as left vs right or fun vs horrifying misses the fact that newspapers are getting far more engagement and conversion on Bluesky than Twitter.

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy. It’s not rocket science.

It feels nice to not have to scroll quickly past all the fake blue checks pooping at the top of all my comments. I’m here to stay.

It’s feels special to see pictures from Georgia with thousands of people today - on same day we had the 1st biggest Maidan protest in Kyiv 11 years ago. My 1st political activism. Day before, on November 30, Berkut beat up students peacefully protesting in central Kyiv. My friend was among them.

Welcome to everyone new here fleeing X! Hi, I’m God! Jump in, the water’s warm. 😎 💦

In other BREAKING news: the Georgian revolt has started. #Georgia 🇬🇪🇪🇺

It feels like Narnia, the real Narnia in the last book over here on Bluesky right now. Where all the good and wonderful people are suddenly all back together (except poor, shallow Susan) and the colors are vivid again, and the chocolate is mouthwatering the way you remember it to have been.

Bluesky is the best app on the internet right now.

It feels wonderful to have been welcomed by so many of you here on BlueSky... especially the sticking it to Leon part. 😛

I’ve been on Twitter (now X) since 2011. I forgot what it feels like to be excited to scroll through my replies and engage with folks until now. I guess I had Stockholm syndrome. Thank you, everyone. 🙏🏽❤️

Historic moment in Syria. The rebels have taken back nearly all of Aleppo in less than 72 hours, they’ve brought down the Assad regime’s flag in the city center. #freeSyria

They have an entire platform overrun with their propaganda, and they're feeling the need to come here and troll? What's wrong with these people?

You don't need to be a rocket scientist or a brain surgeon to see why Bluesky is the place to be. But welcome scientists, thank you for joining us! 👋

I am in Kyiv underground bar. It’s in the district that looks kinda like Berlin. I love this place because it named after one of my favourite Ukrainian writers - he was killed by Soviets - not technically tho (technically he killer himself with a shotgun ). Power is down -so we’re surrounded by

Every day not spent reading Edgar Allan Poe by the fire in a seaside cottage during a raging thunderstorm is a day wasted.

Great self-own.

Without googling, do you know the story of Johnny Appleseed? Very curious if this story is still common amongst Americans

Trump's popular vote is now below 50%, & w/ votes still being counted, Harris has won more total votes than he did in '20. The US hasn't swung either leftward or rightward Harris loss was due entirely to Biden Voters who didnt vote at all. They didnt vote for Trump. www.axios.com/.../harris-t....

the sass leaving my body when my timeline isn't full of vitriol and slurs

Matt Gaetz is already doing the hard work removing criminal sex offenders from Trump's cabinet.

Twitter has become the launchpoint for a group of poisonous rageful people who feel entitled by God to have the attention of unwilling listeners.

Please join me on bluesky! Such a great platform. Cant see the bots or the toxic posts unless I absolutely want to see them there. bsky.app/profile/stephe…
