Alex Conway @ajhconway.com · 12/03/2025I don't understand how people still want to hear out these lunatics. We've heard them over and over again. They're not saying anything new and what they are saying is getting crazier. 010 0
Alex Conway @ajhconway.com · 07/03/2025Are you nuts? First off, this will not do what you say it will and will give this administration far-reaching new powers. Second, the priority right now should be a functioning government and this is a huge distraction and waste of political capital. 000 0

Alex Conway @ajhconway.com · 04/02/202530s are the best decade (I'm in my 40s now so don't have that much experience). Your 20s actually sucked. Now you maybe have a little more money, more security, more sense of who you are. You're less likely to waste time and energy on things and people that aren't worth it. 31013 0

Alex Conway @ajhconway.com · 31/01/2025Hard agree. I also think that many people don't even consider weight lifting and just jump into random cardio when they start working out (which tbf does also make me better). 000 0

He’s a notorious bad-faith actor who we *know* uses social media to harass and attack vulnerable people. Letting Singal remain here is a violation of Bluesky’s own stated policies, IMO. He should not be allowed to once again work the refs. 463448834 0
Reposted by Alex ConwayMicah @rincewind.run · 10/12/2024some thoughts on the Singal situation, as it seems to be moving towards "nobody says anything and he stays on the platform": I think this is a mistake, and I think it risks losing much of what made bluesky special and taking away one of the few safe-ish spaces trans people have left on the internet 633704897 0
