And yet, now welcomed back to the Olympics. Even allowed to sell oil to India.

Total disregard for whoever they kill. And still bombing Ukrainians.

NewsBeep appers to be AI generated and it's flooding Bluesky with multiple accounts.

No names. No about. Questionable paragraphs. Misleading links.

This is a good example www.newsbeep.com/ca/507128/

Climate change IS terraforming.

(Although it's more like venusforming)

It's illegal to use that red cross by anyone but ACTUAL medics.

More Trump "irregularities"

Roberts Space Industries | Follow the development of Star Citizen and Squadron 42

Fantastic fun in #StarCitizen!

Hired a spaceship, parked my buggy in it, landed on a distant planet, drove my buggy over the snow to "baddy" base then took out a load of baddies, guns a blazing. Found some nice loot.

Still time to check it, for free!

Good news, but we should have proportional representation.

Then at least people can have a vote they actually want to make.

Or the exact opposite of what you just said.

The BBC highlight this area has got poorer since Brexit, and lost money, all because of that Farage bastard.
