Notes about trolls. They may not post on the firehose. They may post as a reply to your post. Others might not see it. Please use the block and report feature if you are being harassed or trolled.

^Also, we have some long time trolls who are familiar with this community, and will pre block certain long time users who are good at spotting trolls. Sometimes we can't see what you see. FYI

MTG is posting her bs nonsense today. Can't wait for the indictments start flying and all the J6 members of congress get taken down and ousted.

Seems to me that Eli Lilly, while apparently being unable to make insulin affordable, does have grounds to sue the birdsite for one hell of a lot of money.
