But it also means I may say a thing prompted by something I saw on one platform without context on the other. My apologies in advance for any confusion.

And yet, it’s only been like a year or so since the “wait, Bluesky lets you use the N-word as part of your username?” fiasco, so I’n kinda resignedly unsuprised.
