1st Vietnam anti-War protest in the US: 1963. The war wouldn't end until '73. Free Nelson Mandela Movement: 1980. He wouldn't be free until 1990. It always takes time, and constant pressure, to make change. Chances are higher D's will respond at some point than MAGA.

I call Elon Musk's social media platform "X" because I want to remind people that Twitter is gone. We can't make it "ours" again by calling it Twitter. It was never a public space, which is why one edgelord billionaire could kill it. Beware of privately-owned spaces that masquerade as town squares.

If the cycle of enshitification can be delayed for a good amount of time we might have something. Enshitification can never be stopped, it's what TechBros are good at.

A blunt Twitter reply about Marianne Williamson's 2nd time campaign fail has produced a 4 tweet rant against me by the OP I replied to. It's hard to say what's more sad, that he really wanted to get the last word in that badly or that he was that big a fan of her.

Yeah, but Ultron actually had a plan.

I decided to delete my Tribel account. I set it up back during the early rush to get away from Twitter, but that was before I really knew much about their direct connection with the media grifters behind Occupy Democrats. I was barely using it anyway, so no great loss.

With all of us coming here to Bluesky, we are all essentially hitting a big reset button. Twitter promoted a lot of toxic unhealthy traits in the pursuit for clout thanks to its awful algorithm. Here, those toxic fucks don't have an algorithm to push their bullshit. This is a huge chance for us.

So when they attended a local convention and sat in on a panel where these older women were squeeing like teenage fangirls over Ducky, they were kind of freaked out, and I found the whole situation amusing.

The passing of David McCallum reminded me of a story about a friend of mine who had passed a year ago. They were younger than me, and never grew up on Man from UNCLE reruns, so Ducky on NCIS was their main point of reference for David.

I'm not sure where I am going with this, I guess my thoughts are still mixed up at the news. So I guess I'll end with this link to a suicide prevention organization.

All I can think is, despite everything we do online, how much we spend our lives connected to everyone around us, we too often hide what is really going on within. Depression in the social media age is fear of showing the truth of ourselves while keeping up appearances.

I admit, we didn't really interact outside of the exchanges or other comic related stuff. Both of us made comics that were an acquired taste for various reasons. He was a regular commentor on a number of comics so a lot of people are mourning his absence

His close friends on CF contacted the local law enforcement for a welfare check, but it was already too late. His family had already been notified. I only knew JM through their art. We had run into each other during Comic Fury Exchanges. JM did a story with Gwenna for the Valentine's Day exchange

Oh shit, I just found out today one of the #ComicFury regulars has succumbed to depression and has died by suicide. Joshua Moats (aka jmluvsbob) of Kalamazoo MI posted their suicide note on their comic page.

Wait, this is REAL? My first thought this had to be satire news.

Any takers on how long until Elon just prohibits people from deleting their accounts?

Anyone can look smart if they have enough PR people behind them.
