Topless trans women with boobs out in protest
Three topless men jogging in a park on a sunny day in the UK
Why are Bluesky flagging the picture on the left, yet allowing the picture on the right?
According to the fucked up UK law, both pictures are legally male.
The one on the left SHOULD be classed as women as we ARE women. Highlights how ridiculous the Supreme Court ruling is.

Sal Mercogliano (WGOW Shipping) π’βπͺππ΄ββ οΈ
@mercoglianos
The ship that struck the Brooklyn Bridge was the Mexican sail training ship ARM CuauhtΓ©moc.
She was built in Spain in 1982 and has three sisterships.
It appears the ship lost power after casting off. The tug Charles D McAllister was on hand to assist her departure from South Street Seaport.
The ship lost her topmasts, and parts of her crew were stationed in them when she hit the Brooklyn Bridge.
The Police and FDNY arrived on the scene to assist in the rescue. The ship was stopped and anchored before hitting the Manhattan Bridge.
Sal Mercogliano, a maritime historian at Campbell University in NC, is sharing knowledge on Twitter. He's also on Bluesky but not posting yet tonight. @mercoglianos.bsky.social
I'll share this long post in two parts. Here's Part 1.

Any time you see one of those fascists on TV claiming birthright citizenship is "bad policy", remember that birthright citizenship is not policy. It is a goddamn constitutional right and it would take two thirds of Congress & 3/4 of the states to change it.
The president isn't even involved.

To be clear, if this bill passes, it will end all scientific research & medical training in the US. It will close hospitals. It will be economically devastating. Millions will lose their jobs.

#Moodyβs has downgraded the United Statesβ debt, stripping the country of its last perfect #credit rating. The move could rattle financial markets next week and push up interest rates.
Moodyβs held a perfect credit rating for the United States -- AAA -- since 1917.

You know how occasionally you want to clean up but itβs overwhelming and you decide to just pick up a handful of things for a minute? In that spirit, search the word βretardβ on Bluesky, block the first ten people who use it as an insult, and go about your business. Every bit helps.

OK, this is wild.
In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.
It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.
What the HELL?

1. Who pays the tariff for a $400M imported item from another country? Funny how that ain't mentioned
2. Why can't China 'gift' an export to the US to escape a tariff then, & have a receiving company 'gift' them a payment for those goods' value?

This is potentially very important. There are some obvious follow-ups that could tighten the argument but the basic conclusion that emitters of CO2 (direct or indirect, scope 1 or scope 3) can be linked (proportionately) to damages seems clear.
