Why the F would people want life to return to how it was decades ago? TV show intros used to be 1.5 minutes long and unskippable!
Omg how did it go? I wish I could have gone 🤩
Im seeing a lot of panicking and doom spiraling on my skyline. A lot of people feel helpless and hopeless right now
Only 3.5% of a population needs to be actively resisting to overthrow a dictator
Heres a thread of things YOU can do to resist tyranny [for those that have the privilege to do so]/1
Rereading the Last Hellion now because nothing soothes my aching soul more than a pathetic suffering sadboi™️
I think we're slowly filtering elsewhere. I'm going to crosspost everything. For example, I'll post a reel on Pixelfed and IG, but in IG stories, I will link my Pixelfed "reel". Hopefully that would direct others to pixelfed.
We can always share our Bluesky post screencaps in IG stories with links
I have... so many social profiles 😭
