TFG’s tax rate was 4%.

4%

While the rest of us are paying 33% or more. Now you all know why the Republicans wanted these taxes hidden. Fucking crooks

#TrumpsTaxReturns

@quinnsentialOne Emotions are easily manipulated by those with something to gain. Turning us against each other is the best way those with massive amounts of money can keep us from focusing on coming together to make things better for the vast majority of us who are just trying to get by and have a good life rather than rule the world and be a billionaire

#Twitter

Pretty much, which is why I care not a whit about what Eelon does with Twaddle. Turn it into a desert of the angry and aggrieved. Ain't my bag or my problem.

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.

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.

#political #midterms Let's be real, you won't.

Are you curious about the culture here? Here's a primer.

1. We don't care about like or follower counts. Just be yourself.
2. We can be political, but we aren't zealots. Mutual respect reigns supreme here.
3. We have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to community abuse. Trolls are dealt with immediately.
4. We do not frown upon mutes or blocks. People are like flavors. You won't like them all and they won't all like you. Use the tools. #CoSoTips

NEW JERSEY AREA FBI WARNING ⚠ FOR JEWISH COMMUNITY

Just a quick reminder that CoSo is free. Yes, there are some paywalled features. Some of these were put behind a paywall to deter trolls. Others are value-adds.

But to put it in perspective, there are enough users here that pay willingly. Not because of the features, but because of the belief in this community. We want to see the community thrive, not because we want to have exclusive shinies.

Contrast that to another site considering adding a paywall for just an icon next to your name.

If we want to avoid extinction, we have to choose to evolve our 10,000 year old economy away from war and slavery. We have to choose to create a new economy that provides for all humanity.

PSA please

I'm not sure how many new CoSonauts truly understand the growth that has been taking place and the selfless efforts that J, the one man show, our host and Capt. has been pushing through to give us this home.
Please at least thank @th3j35t3r 💛

With so many new folks joining COSO, I'm finding that my pinned lists have become even more of a necessity for me. It assures me that those folks, topics and general things of interest aren't lost in the feed.

Follow the prompts starting with the far right navigational panel to customize your lists. Be sure pin them after you've created the list.

PSA: If you're concerned about exposing credit/debit card info not just here, but ANYWHERE on the Internet, we — in the sense of me and J at least — recommend you check out https://privacy.com

You can create per-site virtual cards, one-use burners cards, set monthly, yearly, per-charge, or lifetime caps on them, and get notified by SMS and/or email anytime a charge is made to one.

THIS IS THE WAY.

Hello, new friends… #CoSo remains under assault from outside forces while stretching to accommodate thousands of new users. Things are not always like this, and the delays and lags you may be experiencing are not the norm. Our fearless leader @th3j35t3r is working day and night to stabilize the ship and trust me: it WILL be worth the wait! In the meantime, welcome aboard! We are so glad that you’re here!

Did you flee the bird? Want to tell everyone there that you're now hanging out here? I have just the thing for you!

I know what you're thinking.

@th3j35t3r Is a hacker so how can I be sure I'm safe here?

1. Your data isn't shared.
2. You will only receive an email from COSO if you ask! (reset password)
3. COSO can tell you if your email has been in a breach anywhere in the world!
4. External links posted to public feeds or timelines can be accessed using our Enhanced Privacy Mode - this essentially puts us between you and the host/server you are visiting. Because we're awesome.

We ain't scared. We have the BEST captain.
