Best point in this piece: seniors are clearly harmed by internet scams, and yet we largely do nothing. Why not prioritize ending those?

BREAKING: The San Francisco teacher's strike is over. The 2 sides reached a deal early Friday morning. Educators won fully funded family healthcare, 5% raises, some special education caseload reductions & more. Students will be back in class next week. missionlocal.org/2026/02/sf-t...

I'm a big fan of tabletop RPGs: reading them, playing them, and running them for friends. I thought this breakdown of the industry, based on Hasbro's reported earnings, was really interesting. (Also: $1.7B in revenue for M:tG?! Absolutely wild) cannibalhalflinggaming.com/2026/02/11/f...

v1.116 is rolling out now! For all the overthinkers and perfectionists out there, we're launching Drafts.

This thread wins the internet tonight. Really. You need to read it, whether or not you watched the halftime show. Though it will make more sense for those who've seen it, so go watch it, then read this.

Five minutes apart, thx @karlthefog.bsky.social

Tonight I made a general public comment on behalf of @lwvsf.bsky.social about working groups, which are very important to the Collaborative Reform Initiatives to address bias, increase transparency & accountability, & implement community policing best practices.

I can officially confirm that the snow in NC is roughly one (1) corgi deep

one of the best bluesky labelers is the one that flags accounts that post more than 50 times a day

I love that there is a capybara bath contest www.tokyoweekender.com/japan-life/n...

You know what we don’t do enough of? Delete apps from your phone. Find five that send you the most annoying notifications and just delete them

Highly recommend people check out his entire music video collection (and Spike Jonze's and others') on the Internet Archive: archive.org/details/@dir...

2026 is the year Bluesky and the Atmosphere really come alive here's what's next bsky.social/about/blog/0...

It looks like you describe how you want this guitar pedal to transform sound and it builds it for you on the fly. A really interesting use of AI. polyend.com/endless/

happy to see the name “cashtags” lives on (what we called them at ye olde twitter too)

Damn it. Farewell, Bob, thanks for all the music.

I spent New Year’s in Berlin. I found the murals on what remain of the Berlin Wall to be powerful. Messages of resistance to tyranny, hope, and freedom for all.

Non-consensual image creation / "deep-fake porn" has been a problem for a while that the legal system has only just begun to grapple with but part of what makes the Grok thing much worse is that it's delivered instantly & directly into replies to punish women for publicly speaking or even existing.

Worth the click:

took my acoustic guitar out of a closet, i hadn’t played it in maybe a year or so, and i think it needs a truss rod adjustment. boo…

kinda missing foursquare and seeing friends check in places

I've regretted for years that I didn't go see Prince when he performed at the DNA in 2013, here in San Francisco, a small venue. He played four nights. Now you can listen to all four shows, available from the Internet Archive. Here's 4/23/13 (Late show): archive.org/details/DNAL...

absolutely tragic day. let some people you care about know that you do

For those following the news re: EU fining X for DSA violations, this thread explains that (despite how we may see the right and the U.S. gov frame things), it isn’t about “censorship” or even content moderation, but about X failing to follow laws about platform transparency and deception. A thread:

Lost in the headlines is that a huge chunk of the fine is focused on deceptive practices and poor design of the verified badge. The revamp was the second major change made after the acquisition and was a complete disaster. It was the biggest dumpster fire of a project I’ve been associated with.

Poor guy. He was an icon.

Saw this exhibit today at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco. Loved the story of these two artists and how they inspired each other. www.famsf.org/exhibitions/...

incredible, this is really exciting

one of my favorite bluesky features that no other social media network has (afaik) are Labelers, which label content in all kinds of ways. This one from Cornell will tell you which accounts are posting 100+ times a day, or are rapidly changing their profile photo, etc. bsky.app/profile/stec...

🔐 Account Security Thread 🔐 We're seeing an increased number of phishing and social engineering attempts targeting Bluesky users. While we're working hard to protect you, here are essential steps YOU can take to secure your account and stay safe. 1/10 🧵👇

iPadOS 26.1: reduce transparency and then edit folder name results in blank keyboard keys

uh oh i stumbled into “gallon of milk” bluesky

liquid glass tinted is a huge improvement over the release version in 26.1. Settings -> Display & Brightness -> Liquid Glass -> Tinted At least some things like notifications are legible again

just watched a pie eating contest in the Castro and it was great

Joe taught me a mini version of this course earlier in the summer and I’ve been quietly recommending his workshop pre-launch. He’s a great teacher and the workshop is full of all kinds of useful material.

Feeling bad for anyone who loses their job these days. Amazon laying off 30,000 people is brutal.
