I don't understand why the booking would use self-reported propaganda numbers. If height and weight are somehow relevant to taking a mugshot, clearly you'd need to actually measure them instead of relying on the criminal to be truthful?

It's not a problem because lying to the jail is against the law.

They don't let every person they book self report height and weight. Donald Trump gets special treatment.

It's the new twitter. The one they're trying to build without nazis.

Which was co-founded by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey who loves everything Elon is doing and the CEO, Jay Graber who worked on an anonymous cryptocurrency to better buy/sell drugs and CSAM.
Things are definitely going to be different though, trust me.

Is bluesky the one with "instances" where only some of them are full of nazis and pedophiles and this is somehow good? Or is that the other wannabe twitter.

Twitters not going anywhere until all the journalists, celebrities, sports reporters, and politicians all en masse and as one decide to exclusively use another platform. You can judge for yourself when that is likely to happen.

bluesky isn't open to the public yet, so even if it could embed - only people with bluesky accounts would be able to see it. idk when they plan to open up to everyone, figure they're trying to make sure it won't die immediately

I expect there's many business development conversations happening now that Twitter is floundering but Bluesky was never meant to be open to the public. It's a beta testing instance of one technical framework for posting in a confederated manner like Mastodon that they could perfect the technical underpinnings then license to someone else to do the hard parts of scaling social media like moderation and legal enforcement.

Bluesky invites are increasing exponentially as every new user starts getting their own invites a week later (they seem to have upped the frequency from biweekly to weekly). It won't be long before everyone who wants an invite can easily get one, at which point they might as well open up.

Pretty sure she was fox hunting so gently caress her. She's clearly already down with animal cruelty so I wouldn't put it past her.

Yeh, the people who snapped her were hunt saboteurs. She was on a "trail hunt" where in theory they are following a pre laid scent trail but whoops we found an actual fox, what can you do, the hounds have a mind of their own.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed shitposting.

At certain points the guillotine wasn't quick enough for the amount of people they had to kill, so they just started herding people onto boats with their hands and feet tied, and then sunk the boats in a lake.
