Personal update... I've pretty much left Twitter. Still have the account but seldom check it and generally only when I have picked up an interesting news item from elsewhere. It's just a cesspit of racists and xRW bots now and has lost any of its legitimacy thanks to Musk. I've got a BlueSky account (and Threads) and that is growing, but it's still a minnow compared to prime Twitter and I only dip in and out on that too. Anyone taking a similar path?
I jumped to Bluesky six months ago when signup was first open for all ...and last week had to explain to them that, no, I had not uploaded snuff porn to their platform
Its only been available here in Ireland in the past couple of months, so I'm playing catch up a bit, but so far it seems a much calmer place - just one with loads of feckin' cats on my timeline - like Facebook on steroids. A lot of bigger 'names' who I follow on Twitter have migrated across to the platform so its quite familiar. But I've so far managed to avoid your porn postings!!
On the same subject...Musk appears intent on destroying any remaining legal or moral credibility he may possess and taking on Governments around the globe (see Brasil) won't help sustain a business that is losing customers and advertiser's like Everton are losing points... Like this, for example.. https://bsky.app/profile/sturdyalex.bsky.social/post/3l3bl7hm2py2l
There are still some very good accounts on Twitter but I agree with your general sentiments and have opened a BlueSky account.
The obvious example is an account that was finally taken down last week that literally posted the n-word over and over again, and in spite of countless reports because it was posting nothing but racial slurs and nothing else apparently the account didn't break Twitter rules I'm wondering if it finally got zapped last week not because of the casual and constant racism, but because people instead reported it for impersonation as the profile pic was grabbed from somebody's Facebook page with a Hitler 'tache badly Photoshopped onto it ...and as for the snuff porn (which wasn't snuff porn), it's because I posted this video to say this is surely the career highlight of the bloke who did the utterly ****e Crow remake
Not a shred of self-awareness or indeed morality That obligation to attend would not have happened with 24 hours notice, probably more like 24 days, so to have double-booked against something so sensitive and important beggars belief. As you say, what a **** and I'm hoping (without expectation) that if directly implicated in the tragedy he faces criminal prosecution.
Can only agree with these sentiments “Whilst the publication of the second phase of the inquiry is an important step on this journey, it is not the end. Those responsible must now be immediately held to account for their systematic dishonesty, corporate greed, institutional indifference and neglect.’' — London Mayor Sadiq Khan.
And while we are on the subject of Tory ****s, here's an update on that pig-****er who is also one of those responsible for Grenfell. I think we all guessed he was ignoring the evidence to appease Israel, but it's now been proved. Another prosecution that won't happen though, I imagine
But before we focus too much on that Porcine Romeo, let's look at another, and their role in the creation of an environment where the Grenfell disaster was an inevitability.....
Priti Vacant did her best impression of Leeds in the League Cup and crashed out in the 1st round: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1d7y92n31zo She got less votes than Mel Stride. Who the **** is that?

You can see Mel Stride's **** in the background. Unite To Win is a **** slogan for those divisive twats, too.
