I see from the NYT that the White House (and other R operatives) have joined BlueSky. That is unfortunate, as it will (inevitably?) lead to politicization, and we will take the first steps down the road that led to X becoming a cesspool of invective.

I'm so tired of being told "we disagree politically, but we can be friends!" If your opinion is that children shouldn't be fed, that the poor shouldn't be housed, that people can't marry who they wish, then yes, that most delinitely means we can't be friends.

While Epstein committed abhorrent crimes, even if Trump was involved in some sort of cover-up, why is this the thing that causes his base to turn on him, and not his racism, trans- and homophobia, authoritarianism, and massive corruption? Some of what he's done will take a generation to repair.
