Guys, this is the #BadPlace

i love that we have an emoji for 🦋. now we just need one for the #badplace:

took a couple of weeks… but i’ve seen my first trolls and abusive dickheads on 🦋. took me a few years to work it out at the #badplace but now i block on abuse, workout hesitation. always happy to have spirited disagreements, but life’s too short to entertain f’wits.

the highest court of the US says that a twice-impeached, felon despot is immune to prosecution

hahahaha this is the bad place

we're so goddamned fucked

@Emmacox My issue is that I cannot handle criticism, which is deeply ironic and difficult to deal with. I don’t want people to think I’m a spammy bellend. ☹️ #BadPlace

@carnage4life “It’s becoming a white nationalist cesspool like Truth Social in every way, and being there only made me feel complicit in that.” #badplace #racism

Lots of hand-wringing and pearl-clutching going on about the demise of the bad place, usually with the terrible mixed metaphor of the death of the town square.
Any decent town has a whole bunch of different types of squares, serving a whole bunch of different purposes.
Some are good, some are bad; some only come alive at 1 a.m., with carousers leaving a terrible mess behind.

In a #BadPlace; there are quite a few to choose from, #MisterDen...?

I went back to the tweeting bird for a bit and I got sworn at then blocked by the "wings" nutter and had the likes of Jordan peterson and that prison planet f*ckwit appearing on my timeline. Its no place for the sane. #twitter #badplace

The #BadPlace is apparently now giving brands rounded square #ProfilePictures for, I dunno, cool points? I’m old enough to remember when everyone had those over there, then they went “nah, circles.” Here on #Mastodon meanwhile, I can choose between them with a flick of a switch in #MammothApp #Mammoth

Every time I go over to the #fowlplace (credit to @marlies for coining the term) and then come back here - I come to realization how much that platform is filled with toxicity and utter sense of doom. It can’t be healthy and sustainable to make that site - a #badplace - a primary source of information on social media platforms. #fediverse

Feeling oddly calm this morning Pouring a #coffee and coming here vs the #badplace #birdsite is apparently good for mental health

Reading a tweet about mobiles by @GerryMcBride in the #BadPlace got me thinking about my phone history prior to #iPhone4

#SonyCMDz1 - check out that high res dot matrix screen (1998)
#Nokia8210 - the worst mobile ever owned (2000)
#SiemensME45 - best phone ever, owned 2 (2002-06)
#SiemensME75 - lost it within a few weeks, no insurance 🙈 (2006/7)
#MotorolaRazrV3 - work mobile, at least it was free 🤷‍♂️

Not quite #ShieldsUp but I'm suddenly using my #blocking finger more than in the #BadPlace I've reported a post that mentioned "1000 Mastadon accounts that can be followed automatically".
Be careful*, please. Our new neighbours have been maintaining standards that we like.
