@WynneRoberts @Redcountessa An owner who isn't Elon Musk.

@NorthEndRick @Redcountessa What's to stop it going the same way though? Even if the people running it are trustworthy which I've no idea about.

I've been on #Bluesky for 2 days now. It's feels odd. The platform is basically identical to this one, except the folks who converse with me can spell, and I'm not being inundated with a bunch of right-wing, inbred, mouth-breathing idiots, posting misinformation. It's ... Eden

@EVUberDude @peekabo99768790 Shhhhh. It's a secret. Usually you have to be in my presence to know that I hail from north of the 49th parallel, as I smell like maple syrup, bacon, and actual democracy.

@NorthEndRick @peekabo99768790 What do you know, you’re Canadian 😃

@EVUberDude @peekabo99768790 And that's okay!!

@peekabo99768790 @NorthEndRick I’ve looked at Bluesky, our opinions differ.

@JohnEwanUK @theSteveRCooper It is built so much like this site, it makes the switch painless. And the hatred being directed my way for going over there is hilarious 😂😂

@theSteveRCooper @NorthEndRick Bluesky is far more like Twitter than Threads I think. Everything Meta is about data harvesting. I got kicked off Threads because I wasn’t spilling my life details on there or on other Meta platforms. Once they realised I was relatively incognito they kicked me off.

@McguinThe I had no issue at all.

@NorthEndRick I can login to it on Google search but not in the app. Is anyone else having the same problem?

@ColinFrizzell Done. So much greater than this cesspool.

Who's heading to Bluesky?

@BeenToAugusta You bet. MoronicDipshit was taken 😊

I have joined Bluesky. It looks really good, so I will probably be leaving this platform for good and solely using Bluesky. Here is to hoping this site completely collapses in short order. #Bluesky #Xsucks

The Rangers have no issue with risk in their game. They allow a huge amount of odd-man rushes.

Does anyone else get the feeling that the United States is roughly 18-24 months away from burning witches?

But if they lose another game, will immediately drop just outside the top-10.

It's my personal opinion that @johncatucci should host every Canadian-made television show. Amazing Race? John Catucci CTV National News? John Catucci Hockey Night In Canada? Yep. John Catucci

@johnkendle And the mosquitos ensure that when you take a high stick or lose some teeth to a errant slapshot, there is no blood left to bleed. It's like character acting, but more physical.

@NorthEndRick No airport, either. Travelling by travois, Red River Cart and canoe. Concentrates the mind, prepares the body. Toughens the soul.

My feeling on the Jets' record so far this season. With absolutely no wifi, and very, very little to do because of the constant darkness and temperatures that hover near absolute zero for much of the winter, there is nothing for hockey players to do but think about hockey.

@lavixen67 - Happy Birthday, angel. I adore you ❤️

When do the Jets play the "good" teams? From what I've heard, their record is built from playing bad teams.

Now we get to watch Hockey Night in Canada (the Jets aren't quite good enough to make it onto that broadcast), and they'll talk about the Leafs for 90% of the broadcast, the Habs 5% of the broadcast, and mention the Jets' streak at the very beginning, never to speak of it again.

The heater the Jets are on is bananas. This would not be the version I would have thought would post that kind of record, but they've done it nonetheless. History has been made. Keep it up fellas.
