I'm interested in being just not civil, but excellent in interacting with others of different viewpoints in an online world where we can so viciously defend our echo chambers and be so dismissive of other perspectives.
Because this is less and less possible here, I'm largely offline and am not sure if I'll be returning. It was fun back when civility was a trend on qoto.

53% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Higher for some time than Obama's approval at the same time during his presidency. Not what I would have guessed given the Democrat media stories.

Did you know?
In 1989, the UN predicted “entire nations could be wiped off the face of the earth by rising sea levels" by 2000.
We’re now two decades past.
Nations aren't missing.
We're living longer, healthier, and wealthier lives.
Don't believe the #climatechange hysteria.

You have just turned my world upside down. Are you really saying not everyone centers their year around life day?

Shame, shame, shame on @nbcsnl. A tiny bit of courage and they could have defied the mob and let this young man have the career he earned. Shame on the @nytimes and on every leftist moral midget who thinks this is okay. https://twitter.com/variety/status/1173689020699873282 …

Too many people in the media cannot seem to tell the difference between reporting the news and creating propaganda.

And a via a correspondant:
> The poor have been rebels but they have never been anarchists. They have got more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn’t; he can go away to New Guinea on a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have objected to being governed at all. Aristocrats were always anarchists, as you can see from the barons' wars.

Hmmm. Am I being paranoid, or does it seem like these recent attacks on Kavanaugh coincide with Ginsberg's fading health?

Information on Silencing an instance, to help the confusion.
Hi, Qoto! As you know I posted earlier regarding the silencing of the Spinster instance.
I'd like you to know that a Silence is different than a block. A silenced instance will still allow you to follow users on that instance and communicate with them.
However, the instance will not show in your federated timeline.
