I can only assume your *only* job is to check the code that an agent spits out at you. It's hard to imagine something more mind-numbing and depressing.26 Oct 2026 18:10 +0000at://did:plc:cs3wb3i2dinrycoeftcapdq6/app.bsky.feed.post/3mysczpze722phttps://bsky.app/profile/saltysquadtrevor.bsky.social/post/3myryld3egk2iCongratulations to Brazil for their historic re-election of Lula!
