Imagine how much more beauty, splendor, and excitement men's Olympic ski jumping could have if all of the men had bigger dicks.

Oldest selfie on phone (I love any challenge to deny my true age)

Age verification? What? I don't know anybody named age verification. Is this a recording. *puts down phone* *distantly*: do you know anybody named Age? *sound of phone fumbling* I think you have the wrong number.

ok, going to let it cook, but I'm really excited about the new feed input rules. I think this might be a good model for a following or notifications feed, highlight recent mutuals, and after a stretch of time (10 min in this case), put them back into order of posting with everythign else.

Do you have favorite Olympics posters? Please share. The Olympics feed is incredibly dead, so I'm adding olympic posts from highlighted accounts. Feed members get spotlight first 10 min, then are interspersed with manually added (I have a list) Olympics related posters.

Some of you get it, but if you haven't noticed, US air traffic is tied explicitly to DHS funding. This was the most obvious fucking trap in the world. Air travel has been the single most effective lever to end budget holdouts, and we've explicitly placed it at the forefront of immigration debate.

I'm getting a little bit jaded. When I see a favorite star of the last century I'm quietly hoping they died, rather than turned up in a data dump or signed on for a billionaires love ice concert or whatever.

Ideally, when I say 'this product is bad', I can say 'this product is better'. It's not always possible, but for things like social justice and equity, it's just dramatically more effective.

Sometimes I try to step outside myself and thoughtfully examine how weird I'm being, which is probably pretty weird in itself.

Never sign an NDA about a topic you care passionately about. Knowing without saying is just another kind of torture.

If we talk a lot and I haven't given you labels (and you haven't explicitely told me you hate labels), I'm writing code to kick my ass and prompt me to get on it, but feel free to nudge me personally also.

My advice to anyone who starts a labeler is to go ahead and learn from one of the various sample tools, but then go build your own interfaces to your liking that excludes the bullshit you don't care about. So much more comfortable.

Starting Book 3 of Sandman Slim. It's a very typical series of its genre, probably helped define genre, so that's fine. Good stuff.

Someone please help! This just rolled. All my drafts gone.

'bsky API bump' is my rap name

I thought this WAS the drafts folder.

These servers hate drafts! Stay away from the drafts!

This $1B in new prison construction is brought to you without interruption by the proud sponsors of 'we can't afford to house, feed, or care for vulnerable people'.

“If we have a high confidence that they are an adult, they will not have to go through the other age verification flows,” If you expressed any understanding of a super bowl commercial during a chat on a discord server last night, no worries, you're all set.

it's sad how empty the new feed is, but also feeling good that it's accurately excluding my non-feed related posts (pretty much all of them), but snaps anything actually related right up! good keywords so far jeb bush voice: please join

Sure, Mastodon has account notes you can put on any account, but on bsky, you get to see the ones I make via @yardcrow.com

oh no!!!! Max in Svalbard deleted their account that sucks, they brought me a lot of joy here

shout out to the people who unfollow me, but leave the like on @yardcrow.com thank you!

It's always fun when I see a post I enjoy from someone I don't know, and notice they have a @yardcrow.com label already. I don't remember shit, and maybe that's going to be ok.

Do you think neanderthals made heart hands? 🫶

Out of curiosity, I looked it up, and any American can move to Puerto Rico, and Puerto Rico has no capacity to admit anyone else. There's a bunch of weird tax benefits, but you lose all congressional representation.

I'm mostly concerned for the lurkers on every discord server whose sole identity is telling anyone new to the server that the answer to all their questions are among the 18 billion posts on the server, and they should just learn to search.

I will kinda miss the bsky touchers discord, but not really. In all honesty the only people who ever interact there with me are mutuals over here. Y'all just get to see more boring questions about new atproto command line tools.

this has no basis in reality, so don't call this a ploy to get likes for YC, but I somehow decided months and months ago, that IT wouldn't happen until YC got 1000 likes.

I'm actually pretty happy we don't have force unfollow. I put so much time and agonized over it so hard on twitter. I'm happy to just be free to not give a shit, and rarely even look. I follow back when someone interacts positively, and otherwise don't sweat it.

Now I watched when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals...

The drug problem is complex and varied, and the largest bang for the buck in addressing it would be housing and feeding desperate people so they can reach further than chemical relief from suffering.

Here's another more general Olympics feed.

As I find them, I'm happy to pass along other Olympics feeds that look interesting! There's a bunch of talent on bsky.

I'm working towards creating communities around special interests and letting people interact in those communities without following everyone involved. Each event feed iteration is likely going to be a little different as I try different approaches As always, welcome to swipe my ideas!

Visit the new Milan Olympics Feed if you're interested in joining it, and viewing Olympics related posts from others who have opted in to participate. No pressure! This uses a keyword list, so it won't display everything you post, but if it needs more or less keywords, let me know!

Welcome to the Milan Olympics Feed. Like this post to add the ❄️🏅🤌 label, and start adding your Olympics related posts to the feed. I hope you'll like and subscribe to the @yardcrow.com labeler so you can see who else is participating in the feed.

Thank you for participating in the Super Bowl Feed. I'm shutting it down now, but expect to start new event feeds soon! Take care, and if you would visit @yardcrow.com profile page and like the labeler, you'll receive a support label and my thanks!

so much depends upon a green goop chair dappled with sun light beside the ivory boucle

They’re all good bunnies, Donald.

Ha 4 people disliked @yardcrow.com for having a superbowl event. Well, input is always appreciated.

I've removed the external feeds and hashtag inputs into the Super Bowl Feed. I'll leave the feed up for a day or 2 with member inputs. Thank you too everyone who participated! I think we'll do this again for future events!

Honestly, a commercial with George Burns and Bob Hope wouldn’t even surprise me.

Ferris Bueller and Tyson. Ok. Say goodnight gracie.

How’s that kid rock show doing? Fuck him and everybody else afraid of a world this talented and diverse.

Bad Bunny, incoming!

So is everybody seeing every commercial with references from 20-30 years ago, or did I stroke out and my life is flashing back?

Project Hail Mary was better book than The Martian. Should be good movie too.
