My comments are littered with folks asking "why is it a problem if your blocklist is public on Bluesky?"

I'm glad you asked.

"Who you block" is a reasonable indicator of your personal alignments. If you block TERFs, you're likely trans-friendly, if not trans yourself. If you block white supremacists, you're likely in support of multiculturalism.

If you block government entities, well, you know how this goes.

Do I trust Bluesky to handle that information with care? Hell no.

One thing that's tough for people who just join the Fediverse, like most of the folks on #theforkiverse , is that there are self-appointed experts who reply to their public posts saying that "the Fediverse" doesn't like that kind of content.

This is untrue. They don't speak for all of us. Nobody does. You can't spell "Fediverse" without "diverse"; for good or ill, there are different viewpoints on almost any topic found here.

Exactly — modern leftists are worthless, lying, ass-talking Marxist scum. These socialist whores and communist bastards spew nothing but deception, hatred, and filth from their godless mouths. Fuck every leftist cunt who pushes baby murder, child mutilation, open borders chaos, gun grabs, and woke degeneracy. They are cursed, demonic, soul-rotting parasites destroying nations with their Marxist bullshit.

imagine the federal budget for 300 million americans hinged on whether or not the gestapo is funded to meet ss barbie's demands.

illegal residency is an issue - but it is more of an issue to legalize bounty to hunt other humans than it is to create systems in which a middle class could rebound and thrive. i return to my college thesis about terrorism when i argued against the eugenics experiments in palestine: terrorism does not develop unless there is a blatant disregard for basic rights and the silent oppression of governments which enables the violence for their own agenda.

this is reality.

the fact it is about tax cuts and not living wages tells you the state of british coffers. historically the english pay high taxes because they make high incomes - one of the fastest markets to tax rebellion is the english pound because they overtax everything, which is only sustainable in a wealth glut. which apparently they are out of -

"So what does he say? He says he's going to put a 10% cap on interest rates. You know what he hasn't done? Put a 10% cap on credit card interest rates. There's all sorts of things that come out of the man's mouth."

Too often we talk about what he's talking about, but we ought to talk about what he's doing.

I just booked a ticket to Mexico for next week.

I'm going to go check out Oaxaca. I've never been there before, and it has a couple of sets of ruins I would like to photograph.

I think I will swing by Palenque as well if I can figure out the logistics. I was there a few years ago, but the jungle ruins tour I booked got rained out. (see photo)

X just scuttled their monetization program, and I suddenly have a lot of free time.

I love you all!

I miss my old hat.

See photo of selfie with King Tut.

A crazy lady in Lima, Peru stole from me. She tried to steal my luggage while I was eating in a little restaurant, but I fought her for it.

She grabbed my hat, and she tried to bite the rim off the hat to intimidate me, but the hat was too strong.

She threw a chair at me, and she escaped out the door with my hat.

That hat had been inside pyramids on 3 continents with me.

It's a Peru hat now.

I miss my old hat. #PhotosbyRobertR

Snuffy (full name Aloysius Snuffleupagus, a.k.a. Mister Snuffleupagus) at an old Sesame Street exhibit at the Library for the Performing Arts in NYC. I don’t recall the episode where he wears this ballet outfit and swan headdress, but he looks absolutely ADORABLE and now I have to look it up.
