I apologize in advance if it hurts, but if you post Current Affairs, I will share with you exactly what I think. Cameos by our cat, sourdough bread & our 11-acre farm. I also use Bluesky to connect with entrepreneurs who might make decent podcast guests.

Clearly, they dont have principals to stick to, Trump and his merry men blow with the wind and use caos as a distraction.

The fact that POTUS is using the FAFO acronym on social media seems like emaculate proof to me that there are no depths to which he will not descend. Are you scared yet? We must fight this madman.

I realized what really bothers Trump about what Musk did (the Natzi salute) .. he is not disturbed by the reference as much as he feels this: "I am better than Hitler!"

Lettuce or other veg in plastic bags/wraps and any pre-made products that are not dry and not canned can have salmonella. The canning process involves cooking the contents in the can, which kills bacteria, or canned food would not be exempt. ADVICE: Buy wisely & make dinner & treats from scratch.
This is a screenshot of a news item about a salmonella recall over small meat pies

This is how you spin the acceptance of deliberate disinformation campaigns. What a joke!

I just cracked up. I was catching up the ever-growing follow-back list of mine, and I came across a dude who wrote this in his account description: "Pig tits will never be my president!" If you have great graphic talent, which I dont, please, put Trump's face on a pig!

With 6 reposts, zero replies, and zero posts of your own, one wonders. Sorry, but are you a real person, Jon Cooper? I only ask because you don't appear to have a single thought of your own, which hampers my wish to follow you back. I would like to know, are a bot? @joncooper32.bsky.social

The skunk (Pepé Le Pew) chasing the cat is a parody of a Merry Melodies cartoon (1945), reimagined as the Liberal party distancing themselves from Canada's Prime Minister (Trudeau) by @deadder.bsky.social Truely brilliant!

After several dozen new followers 6 blatantly promote porn (Only Fans, etc), it suddenly stopped. I assume that Bluesky blocked an IP RANGE used by bots to create accounts & follow us with fake accounts. 1. It will happen again. 2. I know that Bluesky will deal with every time this recurs!

I just noticed this (when I went back to BLOCK): It would appear that Bluesky is on to them. They may need to blick an IP Range to catch the bot that is doubgcthe sign ups

Just working through the follow-backs .. check out what I noticed (see screenshot): 8 out of 15 Only Fans One AI account (light green) 6 worth following. I want to say that this is not normal. I also want to say that in this group I did not find any accts with ZERO posts, which I normally do.

Gosh .. I am really annoyed at the number of Bluesky users with no description in their profile and this (see screenshot). Zero posts! Hust a bunch of reposts and zero comments. Don't you have an original thought?

Yes, I was on the cover of a magazine 20 years ago. I was also featured in one 23 years ago. That was back when I cared about such things.

For those of you who follow science, a paper came out before Christmas that is credible and concludes that dark matter doesn't exist. Peer reviews will start coming in this month. Should be interesting because, if proven correct, it means that one branch of cosmology (science) is not needed.

We can hate what MAGA represents, but we can't hate those who think it will improve the country. They are misguided & duped, deserving something more like pity, but never hate. Let's stop the HATE by setting a better example. Instead, let's see Trump's average follower as blind to what he is.
This icon is of a heart being stitched back together. The words say; "love not hate."

Don't be fooled by this. To me, the real scammer is not who this DM sender is trying to warn me about. It's them. "Hi, too many scammer follow your page!" If I was talking to them, and they said this, without pausing I would have said, "Is that so? Bet I didnt follow them back!" This is B.S.!

Heads up .. There are several accounts posing as organizations that don't post (or hardly do). Check out 7 thousand followers with no posts and no replies, just one repost. Why are people following this account that is rather obviously fake? @democracybridge.bsky.social

I thought I should break it to National Geographic that whatever discovery science may have made about what bears do, it aint new to bears. I could be wrong .. It may have been the first time a bear did it in the woods, but somehow, I doubt it. #forgivethehumor
