It helps manage a social media presence for anyone who relies on it, I.e. artists and general celebrities. George Takei, for example, already posts the same things to mastodon and bluesky (no clue about nostr) and has a very large following on both platforms because of it.

I had the exact opposite reaction when I got my invite a few months after jumping ship to Mastodon. Mastodon just doesn’t have good discoverability and didn’t have a lot of the people I used to follow on Twitter. Bluesky’s feeds feature solves the discoverability problem; I’ve already found way more people I want to follow on there than on my entire time on Mastodon.

Even so, that's $625/hr, which is prohibitively expensive for many Americans. Insurance companies are going to fight tooth and nail not to pay for this. What are the odds the VA pays $15,000 for every traumatized vet? Getting MDMA from a dealer and having one of your friends talk things out with you is, while less effective, going to be the only option for a ton of people.

FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS? This is insane, you can just go to a drug dealer and buy some for over a hundred times less. I really hope this is the price with insurance.

This is a must for any part of the fediverse. Blocked both terms and my experience is so much better.

Christian photographer wins right to discriminate against LGBTQ+ couples in c/[email protected]

A wedding photographer offers their services to everyone having weddings. If that photographer refuses to photograph same-sex weddings, is that not the same as denying service to someone over their sexuality?
