Fox spent 20 minutes reporting on the verdict in the Sheeran case in the past hour. They also reported on the seditious conspiracy verdict as well… for 26 seconds

I cannot even begin to state how much of a profound failure of leadership we have seen in the last 24h re: Jordan Neely. Virtually every one of us is closer to being in Neely’s shoes than we think. How could any leader struggle to condemn violence? Being poor or sick is not a license to be killed

Over the past 24 hours, neither the governor nor the mayor have at all condemned the killing of a homeless man on the subway. https://hellgatenyc.com/mayor-and-governor-agree-its-too-soon-to-unequivocally-condemn-fatally-choking-a-homeless-person-on-the-subway

Hey Alex, you make a good point actually cause my official accounts don’t block on other social. I appreciate the input. I’m going to check in on this.

Our first skeet is the way Jack Dorsey probably intended it — with unsolicited advice and an external link to our reporting. Since Bluesky is in its early days, @morgansung.bsky.social’s advice is vital if it’s going to thrive: protect the marginalized communities that shape this platform’s culture

For Bluesky to thrive, it needs sex workers and Black Twitter

If Bluesky wants to be a genuine rival to Twitter, it needs to protect sex workers and its Black community.

yes 100%. And I would vote for that in a second. Also healthcare is a human right, I support Medicare for all.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialMay 4(source)
