Earlier this spring I purchased a milkweed plant for the front #garden and it’s done well, though to my knowledge it had so far failed to attract any Monarch #butterflies. But yesterday was the day, a single Monarch appeared. Then this morning I read that due to habitat destruction and other causes the overwintering population in Mexico was down by 22% this year, so there will be far fewer of them migrating through here, a real tragedy.
@Free_Press @JonChevreau How many limbs did it cost us to negotiate with terrorists?

Republicans finally found a fellow GOPer even too much of a crook for them?

If a person is indicted for violating the Espionage Act, is the person Indicted for Espionage? (Asking for a few thousand headline writers.) https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/did-trump-violate-the-espionage-act
The federal judge...is not mollified. (Nor should he be.) On May 26 (yesterday), he still orders the two lawyers to show cause why they, and their law firm, should not be sanctioned. https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/63107798/33/mata-v-avianca-inc/
I suspect that a significant part of the ire is about the doubling down on the cases in the April 25 filing. If they had come clean then, I feel like the judge might be more lenient.
Y’all are great. I’m honored to be a part of community here on Mastodon. 🙌🏻
So it seems like there's a pretty clear enhancement needed to the #Mastodon blocking paradigm. When a remote user (or the instance a remote user is on) is blocked system-wide by a local admin, any users on that local system who currently follow that now blocked user (or any other users on a now blocked instance), should be *notified* of this action, so they can determine if they wish to stay on that local instance given the policy decision of its admin. If they aren't informed, they cannot make informed decisions, and may simply assume remote users that they follow have stopped posting.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
