Reconnecting with the Twitter homies on Bluesky

Reminds me of this pepper I found. So he constantly experiences his own heat? So his entire existence is pain?

after 10 years of big social media telling us no one wants posts that link out to other websites, it turns out it was really just the big social media companies that didn't want that

if the posting was so good here for the past 6-12 months then why didn’t I stay

Trump won the election. They are making a play, however feeble, to prevent more of their people from dying. Mocking this as stupid is genuinely disgusting.

For all the people just joining, we’ve developed our own slang here on bluesky so it might be a little confusing at first. Here’s a helpful explainer for some of the more common terms:

Free product idea for Substack: let writers opt in to a service where paid subscribers can point out minor copy errors. The writer can accept them or not, like GitHub, and dole out little pats on the head to needy pedants such as myself

time was you bonked a guy on the head with a coconut he changed his personality and believed he was a professional racecar driver or a gangster or something. now, because of wokeness and also potentially electromagnetic radiation, he just becomes injured...

I’m liking bluesky but so far but I’m not sure it has the juice as a Twitter replacement. nowhere near the same level dread or misery upon logging in. hoping they address in future updates

Could be totally off base here, but Twitter 2.0’s mission of becoming “the world’s most accurate real-time information source” might go better if they hadn’t just spent 6 months ripping out literally all the technology, policies, and teams required to do that.
