x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

“.. What will matter now is how markets will price in Bessent’s ‘3-3-3 rule;’ 3% budget, 3% GDP, and 3 million barrels of oil output. A direct implication is lower Treasury yields as the budget deficit is cut in half, and lower energy prices would bring inflation further down.” FedWatch Advisors

Goldman: "we estimate that unauthorized immigrants account for about 4.4% of the US workforce. But the share is much higher in some industries: about 20% in landscaping and private household services, 17% in crop production, 15% in food processing manufacturing, and 13% in construction."

The segment on CBS Sunday Morning about parents of children lost in school shootings was beyond heartbreaking. The rooms of these kids sit untouched years after the event. Clothes still out, books still open, beds still waiting for a child who will never return. … www.cbsnews.com/rooms/

My one constructive criticism on BlueSky, as a community: we need to “like” less and “retweet” more. In the absence of an algorithm, that’s the way we find each other and reward good content.
