The Crown spoilers 

I really like this B story about the Fayeds in ep 3, season 5. I had heard the name Dodi Fayed but knew little else.

It's going to be interesting to see what happens in Ukraine over next 6 months. Really seems like Russia is denying the inevitable.

Ukraine going to strike southern occupied areas from the west (Kinburn spit) and from North, (Zaporizrhia).

Not sure how Kherson forces will be redeployed and what the immediate focus will be. Forces could be redeployed equally to attack south and east equally or one more than the other.

Or Ukraine could do another feint, act like they're going to focus on south areas but actually really strike east.

Happy for George Russell. He's been better than I thought he'd be.

There's parallels between the Empire's use of prison labor and harsh sentencing and the US prison system . Same for resistance movements in Belarus and Myanmar.

It's what I like about Sci Fi. It uses a futuristic setting to illuminate current day issues.

I just watched ep 10 of Andor and now want to fight fascism.

US politics 

My understanding is that Kelly has all but officially won and Cortez Masto will win narrowly. AZ gov race should have more clarity at 9 pm EST tonight

I've seen enough. I'm in love with Steve Kornacki.

Let’s try this again. Where you at #fediverse? Boosts welcome so we can get the best sample size.

So if I boost a politics post that doesn't have a CW, people may get mad at me because I would be putting politics posts out to people without a CW

Show thread

For example, if I see a post about politics and want to boost but I know people like having CW for politics posts.

Then it's only if the original post I am boosting has a CW, will it have one with my boost.

One feature that seems obviously missing is the ability to add a CW to a post I choose to boost.

Bird App Thoughts 

I feel really bad about what's happening at Twitter. Firstly, I've used Twitter almost daily for the past 5 years. It's been an incredible tool for people all over the world to share information and meet new people. I've met a lot of people I wouldn't have otherwise and learned a lot of new things.

I also feel bad for the employees. They worked at what sounds like a great company that cared deeply about its users and now that's been taken away from them.

Really enjoying first ep of season 5 of the Crown.

The Crown and new ep of Andor came out today but we're watching Love is Blind.

Seems like the Lt Gov of GA should have better things to be doing than being on a CNN panel today

I just listened to Elon Musk on a Twitter Space that was intended for advertising partners. This is what he said at the outset. It's hard to come to any other conclusion that he has little understanding of human communication, or indeed behavior on the platform he owns. twitter.com/i/spaces/1RDGlabMN
