We're making a new local social platform with local folks, for local folks. It's called Roundabout. Today we kicked off a closed beta in 5 local communities across the US. Read how we're working w/ local stewards to design something people need & want to use! newpublic.substack.com/p/introducin...

Like many small nonprofits, we’ve been experimenting with using AI tools so that we can focus on our mission of reinforcing human connections, conversations, and communities. We remain mindful of the harms and risks of AI, and have developed a set of guiding principles grounded in our values.

One of the top reasons I love building at @newpublic.org is all the research, the core of how they work. SO MUCH RESEARCH. This work, led by @taliastroud.bsky.social (hook 'em horns) has already directly influenced decisions we've made with our new local social platform. Sign up and check it out.

was kinda hoping baseball wouldn’t end

myles straw probably gonna walk this off, thats what kind of game this is

two bases loaded situations in a row with a close review? sure

just an unreal ninth inning

time for a world series walkoff hbp

gutty AB from Barger

The players don’t want to live without the distraction of baseball, either.

Shoutout to Smoltz for saying "you don't mind if he gets a hit here, you just can't walk him" lol

this sets the Jays up to walk it off

18 innings here we come

no way

the string of ace starters making relief appearances in WS games should come out like wrestling surprise entrants with the music and everything, a shocked batter’s mouth dropping open at the plate

just gonna assume Jeff Hoffman is Trevor’s son since Jays have/had Guerrero, Bichette and Biggio

Muncy CRUSHED that ball

Jays have made some killer defensive plays in this game

its Trey time

I just expect Springer to hit a single in every AB now

what a wild AB from Gimenez, 3 bunt attempts, takes a pitch, hits an RBI double

I’m suddenly distracted by how much Glasnow looks like Cillian Murphy with long hair and a baseball cap

this is officially an all-time great WS game 7

The simple fact that Veracruz All Natural (home of the best migas taco on the planet) lets you know this is a good list www.eater.com/dining-out/9...

playing galaga at house of pies

For almost the entire 30 years I’ve spent making things on the internet, I’ve helped build and grow strong online communities. But the internet kinda feels broken. Everyone feels disconnected and overwhelmed. So I’m joining @wearenewpublic.bsky.social to imagine something different and build it

this apparent drones in nj story would make for a really interesting case study in how the modern media ecosystem works

one of my favorite thanksgiving leftover meals: make breakfast tacos with the mashed potatoes

truly a tale of our times

same tbh

if sports twitter moves over here, that’s how you’ll know its over. they never really moved to threads

Too many Starter Packs. This should be like a lunchroom on the first day of school, pre-cell phones. Just holding a tray looking around for anyone you know.

all the good astros accounts are on here now, seems like they have been for a minute everything is gonna be fine y’all
