Theory : the democrats are keeping open what they call impeachment inquiry not intending impeachment, but to guard the Supreme Court. How could we let a president in the middle of impeachment appoint a justice?!

What can we be certain of from history? That human beings have been wrong innumerable times, by vast amounts, and with catastrophic results. Yet today there are still people who think that anyone who disagrees with them must be either bad or not know what he is talking about.

Actually, you don’t have the right to dictate how other people see reality. A man is free to say he’s a woman. I am also free to say he’s not. That’s how freedom works. https://twitter.com/ewarren/status/1184607328898813952 …

Was just looking at the new #QOTO listing on joinmastodon.org
Looks like other than mastodon.social we are the largest English speaking instance listed. Kinda cool.

Just wnt to update everyone. I just heard back from @Gargron@tooting.ai / @Gargron@mastodon.social and our server submission request on joinmastodon.org has been resolved. #QOTO is now listed on the official server list.
I much appreciate Gargron taking the time to address the back log and it was handled very fairly and respectfully it seemed.
As you know they did ask if our server protected people in the trans-community, I think that is an amazing goal to have so I dont mind the question. Luckily our history of mutual respect for all people and all groups made the case for us I hope.
Thank you again Gargron for the amazing work you do.

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.
