While losing Syria, about to lose Georgia, $200 million in failed election efforts in Moldova, Romania likely to imprison his candidate for treason, Putin's failures are adding up spectacularly. So, he commits a massacre in Ukraine. 7 dead. including kids, in Zaporizhia.

If you'd like the US to annul the 2024 election, then you should probably have mass protests BEFORE Trump is sworn in. Romania showed up for democracy, you can too.

Georgia's enduring fight for democracy in Tbilisi is a powerful reminder that freedom is neither granted nor taken—it's lived and defended by those who refuse to be silenced.

Yesterday I got tagged about generating a "I've moved to Bluesky" banner for Twitter. Well I've built it 😂 Just enter your handle, and we'll generate the banner for you: blueskydirectory.com/moved-to-blu... Thanks to @justinjackson.ca for original idea and @chadtimbl.in for the banner I used!

Hunter was charged with taxes and a gun. Trump’s crimes include trying to overthrow an election. Comparing the two is ridiculous and a pardon for Trump would be an insult to accountability.

While Facebook is pushing every Instagram user to Threads, and Twitter is desperately trying to shore up its collapsing user base, Bluesky is picking up steam — currently nearly 24 million users — because people actually enjoy using it. Go figure.

As a Canadian, the US can pay 25% more for our goods if they want. We'll keep our market open and watch as their inflation does the talking. Sometimes the best response is no response. 🇨🇦📈

Remember new users are coming on daily, unsure of engagement. The more posts you like and reply to, the strong the platform becomes !

When publications like Libération are already using Kyiv, there's no excuse for Le Monde and anyone else to keep using 'Kiev' in 2024.

Either this signals a massive breakthrough in Cyprus-Turkey relations, or we're about to witness some serious diplomatic chess.

Seeing major publications still using 'Kiev' in 2024 is disappointing. It's 'Kyïv' - the Ukrainian spelling that reflects the city's true identity and Ukraine's independence. Language matters, especially now.

Paid badges are what started sinking Twitter. Selling credibility was a dumb move that destroyed trust. Features like longer threads or videos should’ve been perks, not tied to a badge.

Not trolling—just clarifying facts. Discussions about complex issues like land reforms deserve accuracy, not unsupported claims. Happy to share sources if you want to dive deeper into the topic.

Yes, Zelensky's government changed land laws, ending the moratorium, but foreign ownership is still restricted without a referendum. Claims about selling vast areas to BlackRock lack evidence and contradict Ukrainian law. Don’t post misinformation if you don’t want it called out.

False narrative. 🇺🇦 land can't be sold to foreign entities like BlackRock; laws prohibit it. Ukraine’s reforms aim to empower its economy, not privatize at gunpoint. No evidence Starmer supports BlackRock asset grabs in the UK. Let’s fight misinformation, not fuel it.

Muscle flexing. But also could backfire and give the US a reason to station Typhon and SM-6 missiles in Ukraine. Putin is a master strategist.

Been watching folks run A/B tests between here & Twitter/X... fascinating how their posts consistently surface better on bsky. Almost like engagement flows naturally when you're not arm-wrestling an algorithm with *interesting* preferences. So much for that whole free speech narrative.

Left Twitter/X's event horizon for Bluesky's open space. All black holes are best observed from a distance.
