So much for being a "free speech absolutist."

When it comes to a comedian making fun of his lousy business acumen, it appears he has one rule:

"Everyone has free speech; some people’s speech is freer than others."

Just want to share a pleasant surprise… Thanks to some encouragement from this site, I recently posted a collage of three photos on our town’s FB group, and shocked at the positive response - more than 5 times than ever before. Maybe it just highlights how I really have no clue if my photos are of interest or not, but nonetheless I was happy to have spread a positive image of our community to others. Words, music, and images matter / and I vow to try to put them to good use in the future.

I am heartened that we are running up the score from the early voting, and I am hyped that we will run up the score to send the GOP packing tomorrow.

We are extremely comfortable with limiting key features to Pro accounts. We won't tell you exactly how much it costs to keep this space alive lately, but it's a lot.

"Why do I need a Pro account to send Direct Messages!?"

If you really think about it, DMs are a huge vector for abuse on other social media sites. To mitigate this, CounterSocial requires you to have made a small investment in the community before you can privately contact other members.

Luckily, going Pro also comes with a bevy of other awesome features that makes it worth every penny.

@Florence I'm listening to a Voces8 playlist, before I go to my own (masked) choir rehearsal shortly.

@Florence My taste tonight is soft choral music in the background, but it all fits!

PROTIP -

If the Firehose is too much, you can unpin it.

If a hashtag, word or phrase is annoying you, filter it.

If a person is annoying you, block them.

If you don't want to block them, mute them.

If you only want your friends to see your posts in feeds, set that as your default post privacy setting in your settings/preferences.

The tools are available for you to combine in your own way and make COSO your unique experience.

This is a good sign, I guess: my wife just went to vote and there was a long line. When she was done, they told her they'd run out of stickers at around noon since "It's been nonstop since we opened the doors at 8:00"

The Wisconsin Secretary of State is pushing to invalidate ALL military absentee ballots in Wisconsin. This is HOW EXTREMELY serious the Republican attack on democracy is.
