@ivory is there any hope, Ivory will implement thread posting, allowing users to write a long text, which is automatically broken up into a multi-post thread, so we can compose and post the entire text at once?

Right now, I am composing long posts as individual posts, and people start replying when my 1/3 is out, while I am still working on 2/3 and 3/3. Confusing for the followers and not ideal.

@randahl

@tootapp does this. It’s a one time purchase app. You may want to add it to your device (assuming iOS) and use it when you’re composing a long thread.

    Yes! The Middle was one of the best shows you may not have seen. It ran for 8 seasons. It’s brilliantly written and the entire thing is on Prime Video right now. Watch it. It is a fantastic piece of television comedy.

    @flexghost Trust me. Watch it and it will be like an old friend. Such a brilliant and hilarious show.

    $153 billion

    That’s the number.

    President Biden has cancelled $153 billion in student debt for over 4 million borrowers in spite of a GOP Supreme Court and congress trying to hurt Americans along the way

    This is a huge win

    It’s between a sexual predator with 91 criminal charges or one of the most effective presidents of the modern era

    And for some reason it’s a close race.

    @Bam@sfba.social avatar

    @flexghost @babyhuey78 I’ve blocked the twat, but worth noting that these numbers are the result of three separate programs, one of which Biden completely turned around after Trump and Devos intentionally mismanaged it (with over 95% of applications being rejected often for reasons divorced from the fault of the public servant), the PSLF program that was enacted by a Democratic Congress and signed into law by George W. Bush.

    While forgiveness generally has economic benefit, that program specifically encourages highly skilled workers to take lower paying government and public interest careers and pay what they are able for 10 years, with the government forgiving the rest. Taxpayers get a huge boon having these highly skilled people do the public’s work, chasing public interest rather than personal profit. The Biden Administration deserves huge props, even if they were the only thing they did.

    If you're an ordinary Mastodon user, the "block domain" option does not block servers, it just mutes them. It hides their posts from you, but does not hide your posts from them.

    Only server admins can do actual blocks through defederation, preferably on a server that has activated "authorized fetch".

    For example, if you want to avoid threads.net, you need to join a server that has defederated threads.net. (You can find nice servers that block threads.net at https://fedi.garden)

    🤦‍♂️ Arkansas engaging in statewide hand tabulation and then inevitably complaining that they don’t know the results on election night so something conspiratorial must be afoot would be prime Arkansas.

    Via Lisa Rubin 🧵1/…

    A Lancaster NY man now in custody after being charged for threatening NY AG Letitia James, who prevailed in her civil fraud trial against & whose contact info he found online, w death or injury unless she dropped case against Trump

    ..also sent threatening voice mail to Judge Engoron who presided over that trial, telling judge he’d go after him if an “innocent” Trump were to be imprisoned or lose properties as result of case & calling judge “un-American” for his role

    @Bam@sfba.social avatar

    @GottaLaff

    So does that mean his threat was one that should reasonably be understood as empty because there’s clearly no innocent Trump? 😏😉😂

    "Get over yourself

    “Those are the two choices. It's kind of like, one is old and effective and compassionate, has a heart, and really cares about people. And one is old and has been charged with 91 felonies.

    "I don't understand why this is even a hard choice."

    She’s right.

    And, you know, an outdated electoral college system that was created at a time when even statewide elections were typically not possible and worked to perpetuate slave state retention of power.

    You know, if we are being technical.
