They should invent a head of trust and safety who you can trust to make things safe.

Motion for Bluesky bans resulting from reactionary interpretations of benign posts to be renamed “Łinked” in honour of Łink. Like nerfed but Bluesky special edition. Ex: “What happened to Sarah’s account?” “Oh, she got Łinked for posting Johnny Cash lyrics.”

With great sadness I must share @delchi.bsky.social has passed. Cc @2600.com

Years ago I was suspended on Twitter for inviting Marco Rubio to swallow ten D batteries, which I don’t see how it could be a threat; he and I were not even in the same room and I have at most six D batteries on hand

Bluesky adopting a "we will ban anyone who is mean to pedophiles" moderation posture is confusing until you remember it was started by a bunch of tech libertarians as a haven for Ai cultists and crypto guys.

I made a joke in my main Discord server about DOOM E1M1 being in a major key and @abigbagofkeys.sickonedude.com actually made it. Jesus fucking Christ listen to this hahahaha

this was the most chaotic episode of MSN ever and I am totally here for it

Today in tech news, @mozilla.org announces more bullshit code the Librewolf project will have to pry out of Firefox.

M*A*S*H* is one of those cultural phenomena that's just in my veins, one of those things I can't remember ever *not* being in my veins. Lately I've been going through its 11 season run; I'm in season 8. And it just now occurred to me that no one plays Sparky. There is no Sparky. THERE IS NO SPARKY.

Here it is, from @clairewillett.bsky.social

"Will not be for sale." There's probably already a subreddit of people speculating how to mod this into a Steam Machine and building fictional layouts for the display information and they're NOT GONNA SELL IT?

The year is 2035. I am smuggling ibuprofen across the Canada border into Minnesota. I pay people along the line in fistfuls of Advil PM. “Blessed are the inflamed, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” we pray together.

Something the US needs to accept too is that without a large-scale correction imposing consequences on a large number of people, the crisis of governance here will continue indefinitely

Now is the time for freaks with a weird PCs in their media centers that play Kodi.

It's gonna be wild if the whole Epstein files drop to watch the fallout here when the entire rest of the country shrugs and carries on like nothing happened.

a helpful guide to bsky moderation: Johnny Cash lyrics: - 🚫 - bad - very threatening - dangerous rhetoric very scary - bannable "Enjoy the camps": - ✅ - actually good - not threatening at all - definitely not intimidation predominantly used on minorities - not bannable

Wow. Can't say much else. The overhead corona was unbelievable. The most intense reds and greens. ❤️💚😍💃 She'll be dancing until sunrise. I visited Franconia Sculpture Park over summer and it has been on my aurora photo bucket list ever since. That's where I went last night. Schafer, Minnesota.

Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

Heads up South #Idaho Southern Idaho #Pride is having a comedy show / Food Drive to benefit Queer Cupboard. The organizers are good people.

This week on @makesomenoiseshow.bsky.social : what happens when Sam completely loses any semblance of control of the show. 10/10

So I was told there would be debauchery. 🐁 🏳️‍🌈 🩷

a few months ago I said "having generative AI handle absolutely anything with regards to healthcare is a nightmare and should be banned" and a bunch of people made fun of me and called me stupid. anyways,

I’m still mad about this. We just voted six days ago to elect candidates who won primaries on the promise to fight. Immediately knocking out our knees while demanding we just do it again next year is insulting and demeaning. The whole party leadership has to go. They’re disasters. They failed.

This was a really good read

After the Rubygems drama, I felt frustrated that I can’t escape evil people trying to dominate my life. I found myself mourning the future I thought we would have; but also hopeful that it’s not too late to start choosing kindness. Join me in building a better future: okayfail.com/2025/in-prai...

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

To repeat: I have studied a lot of cases of autocratization over the past 15 years. Wrote about them, taught about them, consulting about them. I do not recall an opposition so apathetic, ignorant, and inept as the @democrats.org. They cling to their power, rather than fight for democracy. Shame.

The thing about American politics is that if you expect the worst possible outcome, you will be right 90+ percent of the time.

It really does seem like there's a decent chance that these senators screwed us because they don't want their personal Thanksgiving plans to be disrupted.

I don't know why I'm surprised by how absolutely incompetent the Democratic party is, but here I am yet again surprised.

The original Dem demands were: 1) Permanent ACA subsidies 2) Medicaid funding restored 3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission) They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today. The Senate Democrats!

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

i want to share something with everyone that i have kept hidden for a while. a few years ago, i found an INCREDIBLE repository of star trek images. candids. a whole bunch of AMAZING shit like this. the guy hosting it eventually took it down bc of cost. 1/2

Works every time.

This is so fucking badass
