I quit all meta on January 7 soon after zuck the cuck bent the knee.  Does he care? I suppose not but it’s all I had. Had quit the app formerly known as Twitter months ago.  Might join Bluesky but not in a hurry.

if you choose to join, avoid clicking on those starter pack lists. they pist and repost each other's shit. you'll see the same thing multiple times , right in a row.  annoying.

R.E.M. is in my top five favorite bands and appreciate what Michael is doing here, but are people in younger age groups aware of who he is?

Wish him well in his boycott! 

Better yet, join us!

Turn it all off. It's brain rot

It is indeed, Rob.  And more than ever with a few billionaires at the helm.

Done that long ago no more for me just here and even being here has started to give me a bad taste in my mouth at least on the MT. 

I only use FB to keep in touch with a few people I care about.  As for AMT, this place has degraded badly.  If they decided to scrap the Moving Train, I would understand.  That actually might not be a bad idea.

I connect with my family down in Chile through what’s app here in the states I only text a few friends and family if I need to 

What’sApp is owned by Meta/Facebook…

Hear, Hear!  This place has gone dramatically downhill in recent years.  Don't come here nearly as much.   I enjoy other forums though.

Cool, seanwon.  

Don't give me too much credit though.  I'm sometimes part of the problem.  I'm working on that, but not there.

Maybe Trump can pardon all the banned forum members and we can see how that goes around here....

Whew - just flew in from D.C. Man, are my arms tired! Had the time of my effing life though.
What'd I miss, anything? Just popped in to the first thread I saw.
Whose Michael Stripe? From the White Stripes?

You must be tired of clapping about the pardons of the cop beaters! Back the blue ha or maybe you enjoyed the kid rock extravaganza?

Answer to your question: No.

But I also am not interested in having a thread I created trolled.  It's no blow to my ego--  I could care less.  I can always start another thread.  This one got the messaged out, so closing it is no big deal. 

But in any case, I'm just not going to give space to the trolls who have infected this place. And I should add, if everyone ignored them, they would get bored and go away.  But feeding trolls seems to be a thing here.  That's not helping.  Oh well.  Two months and I'll decide weather it's worth my 40 bucks to stay here.
