that one isn't showing up.

dusting this one off. So, the Generals.

i am only giving out one like for that

Great idea.

Starter Pack — Bluesky (bsky.app) Detroit Lions starter pack. I see the POD podcast guy is on Chris Perfett ‪@perfett.bsky.social‬ Again, the actual team needs to put out content with their official feed rather than being in the cesspool that is twitter.

I guess I can see brain worms having to survive a nomination fight.

I would love it if the embed function worked better. The comment in response was solid.

if there were one nomination I could see a fight for...

The alternative to joining sweet, happy bsky, is to continue to fester in the oligarch wanna-be Mars Governor's toilet.

I'd like to see a couple of thought leaders migrate. I would also like to see some of the sports people migrate but many good folks I hadn't seen in a while are here which is great.

Added. I was scrolling Bsky last night during the game and felt a lot less fury than I would if I had been doing that on Thanos' X app.

Yeah, good point. Bookmark, highlight or flag this as precedent. Get some good attorneys and have them pulverize the administration over unlawful firings.

Bluesky appears to be a pretty good place to be.

Concur. So many additional thoughts but putting them down here might destroy my keyboard.

Yeah, that isn't how a startup operates. A true startup, as in the bull**** that the CEO of a previous company i worked for claimed, was where all the employees put out maximum effort in exchange for the hope of a gigantic payoff in value. I don't see anyone in Congress doing that. I DO see a lot of federal employees doing maximum effort in places where their very lives are at risk around the World but they do not anticipate a massive payout. That's why Trump called them suckers and losers. That's why he hated his generals for coming up in a merit-based system that wasn't rewarding them for being born to the right lucky parent.

Will Congress be running like a startup? I'll hangup and listen.

have checked in...will continue.

So, I'm thinking that's it for X/Twitter for me. I used to prolifically post from there but, its too stinky with Elon's thanos ambitions. I'll try Threads out.

I know the campaigns fairly well. Gettysburg is one of my favorite places in the World because its one of the definitive places where Democracy stood at a precipice. You could make a quick list: Gettysburg Dunkirk Midway Places where the entire Western and now global idea of Democracy stood at the brink and forces who were entirely on their back foot made a decisive stand in two cases and survived by the skin of their teeth in the other.

Was listening to a podcast about Jefferson Davis being the better military strategist than Lincoln not long ago. Fat lot of good it did him.
