I had heard that Bluesky was much better at moderation than Threads. So why is Brian Penny allowed to pin a post harassing me and calling me names on his profile here with no repercussions? @safety.bsky.app @bsky.app

Day 3 that Brian Penny has been allowed to have a post that harasses and belittles me up on this site so lol @bsky.app so much for good moderation and safety for women.

Followers: I need everyone to report Brian Penny (brianpenny) account. He has moved from Threads on to here and is making threats/posting heinous things about Kelsey from Threads for defending a trans woman when she is not even trans herself. He is saying he could livestream a murder and get away…

@moderation.bsky.app @safety.bsky.app Brian Penny has decided to wage a campaign of harassment against a woman on this app. Please address this issue asap. The fact that he is allowed to behave like this is egregious. The woman in question does not know him & did not initiate contact.

This administration has spent a lot of time trying to normalize violence, brutality and jokes about the deaths of ideological opponents. It would be reasonable to think they hoped that would create a numbing effect that could be put to use on days like today. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

When you fail the tryout at Arby’s, but they let you keep the hat.

in your 20s, you'll come across someone who's wrong online. it's very important than you spend the next 40 years of your life learning and arguing about this topic online long after they've moved on, built a career, and raised a family.

So I found out the reasons for your phone calls and smiles … youtu.be/_nt5EH0UYxE?...

Just for fun I put in a bid on Kraftwerk legend Florian Schneider’s phone during an auction of his things. Lo and behold I was the high bidder. Now I can call Florian and ask him how his bicycling around the universe is going.

Honest to fucking God, I came back over here because Threads is beyond stupid. I see this place is getting close.

How true

They just canceled our night flight out of Singapore. For 24 hours we get to be residents of the amazing city that is Changi Airport! Really nice hotel. Good way to get stranded.

"In an era where underground bands have very few models of artists successful in building a career outside of 'the system,' King Gizzard are essentially that: A beacon of artistic integrity and creative freedom who understand that if you show up for your fans, they will always show up for you."

Two overfed MAGAs get in the pool on the ship. Signs everywhere say, “No drinks in the pool.” Them, glasses in hand. I say, “Are drinks allowed in the pool?” Them: “We didn’t see a sign.” They hang out w/their drinks. I swim by them and piss in the pool right next to them. I didn’t see a sign …

WaPO. Ha. Ha ha. HAHAHAHA. Get stuffed.

Charlie Kirk couldn’t have risen to prominence without robust free speech. Now MAGA leaders are seeking to use his death to silence debate, @dgraham.bsky.social writes in The Atlantic Daily:

I’m in Chinese waters and can’t buy a ticket online to the Depeche Mode movie coming to my US hometown in October. This is a tiny thing. Imagine having to deal with this shite all the time.

Why is Charlie Kirk getting the near equivalent of a state funeral? This is ridiculous.

I understand that you have a different opinion, but have you considered that I’m tired and do not care?

A guy in a cowboy hat came onto the flight out of Houston and he was carrying a lariat. I would love to have sky-marshal cowboys roping people who don’t behave on the plane.

apnews.com/article/flor... AP was one of the few who correctly reported this. It’s not “all.”

We’re quite deep within the Singularity right now, though it’s turned out be the Singularity of Stupid (SoS), which effectively prevents the original concept of the Singularity from happening.

I’m so sorry to hear Ken Dryden has passed away. A thrill to watch when I was a little girl.

If you can get the Kanopy app via your local library (USA) you can watch a boatload of good movies, including the highly sought-after “Urgh! A Music War.” Watching it now! It’s free with your library card!

Remember when people would send those out-of-office messages like, “I’ll be away from X to X date and my internet service will be limited because this is how I’m telling all you peasants that I’m going on a luxury vacation?” Can’t do that any more. I always just say, “I’m off; be back on X date.”

One more day of work and then it’s

I need an app that you hold up like Shazam in your house to find things like your passport and those shoes you were planning to “break in” four years ago.

A lot of the big complainers about Bluesky are basically describing Threads but their real issue with Bluesky is that they specifically dislike around 12 people who they could ratio on Twitter if it still existed. It’s basically niche influencer drama pretending to be about policy
