I'm not talking about US politicians I'm talking about normal people. I see people fighting back and organizing every fucking day. ICE hasn't met their recruitment goals. They haven't met their kidnapping goals. That's WHY they keep escalating.

The real reason why Bluesky is failing so bad at moderation is simply because they're scared of congressional investigations by Republicans and having to spend millions on lawyers they they don't have to defend against it. It's all political and about self preservation.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Remembering that guy on Twitter that implied Hazbin Hotel was beneath the standards of The Emmys, a ceremony that has awarded numerous awards to Big Mouth

Rebecca Sugar helming a Moomin project is an idyllic "you got your peanut butter in my chocolate" scenario. I can't think of a better person for it. Can't wait to hear more about it as it develops!

Hackers were able to access copies of IDs, but also IP addresses and usernames/profiles associated with them. A huge blow for anonymity online and a risk for marginalized communities and politically or legally disfavored groups.

I think a site would have to actively start consistently disrupting my user experience and my moots' to get me to quit it, instead of just at the first sign of trouble. This seems like a "well it doesn't affect me yet" view but I think that's the experience of quitting a service besides boycotting.

they still haven’t addressed the massive backlash to this. not a single word for the thousands of people demanding answers on the insane overreach of these guidelines. they’re going to just wait for us all to leave and then the site will die just like tumblr and they just. don’t seem to care!

Tumblr lost 99.7% of it's value doing shit like this lmao Let's go, speedrun! KillYourWeb%

Like I'm sorry but let's be absolutely real from a community standpoint. We're not moving the entire fucking fandom en masse again like that. It took eons to even do that and no way in hell are we going to be able to do that again. I rather this site where the people are than a dead community.

KEEP MAKING NOISE ABOUT THIS.

Show me a microblogging site that you can GUARANTEE won’t do the exact same thing and maybe I’ll consider migrating again. As of now, it just seems like a massive waste of time and energy that would be better spent making life very annoying for the moderators.

Palestinians called on the world to #DisruptComplicity in Israel’s apartheid and genocide between 18-21 September. The world answered. Keep up the momentum: we call for escalating disruptive BDS actions against complicit states, corporations and institutions.

Can everyone go back to yelling at the mods about the TOS changes now or did everyone just forget to do that apparently and just stopped.

I’m exhausted of living in interesting times, but I would like to crack a joke that it’s impressive a president has found a dumber use for the National Guard than invading foreign countries. RIP to all the suckers who enlisted thinking they’d help with flood prevention or something.

We are over 4000 future community members strong now! (That's how many folks have signed up for Northsky Social.) Thank you for your trust and support, and we look forward to welcoming you to safer skies soon!

istg everything about our culture and society right now is set up to make us the worst versions of ourselves. it takes so much energy to not be angry and upset and aggressive. they did this to us and they did it on purpose. we don't have to let them get away with that contrived version of humanity

bluesky: community moderation! we're all about community moderation! we want you to moderate yourselves! we are giving you the tools to do it yourself! one of the biggest and longest running community mod lists:

I still think she was probably institutionalized by a shitty husband when she was alive — perhaps even drugged or lobotomized. 50s housewives did not have it great >w>

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words. The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

if i were to guess he's not in good health and they're taking forever to make him look presentable. Knowing these people are morons they probably waited until last minute to fix him up

People…..do realize that Sir Pentious was “brought back” (as a winner) because it SERVES the story/narrative and the idea of redemption…yeah? What would Adam coming back as a sinner serve in the story??? Someone HAS to be shown to stay permanently dead.

Another Black man was found hanging in the woods and they’re calling it a suicide. At this point, we’re all gonna have to post that we’re mentally sound and would NEVER hang ourselves from trees. His name is JAYVON GIVAN.

op is so right, i've thought about this before too and like.... wow yeah, just another extremely obvious reason that maybe we should NOT be trying to make sentient machines when so many ppl can't even treat other humans as sentient beings with inherent value and respect :')

okay. I've tried this before but maybe it'll stick. WG is a forum where you can discuss at length tv, movies, books, new releases, metatextual topics, post and discuss art, post tutorials etc, read up in threads, which will not just vanish but stick around for a bit. try it! wg.jcink.net/index.php

i think the disconnect with the bluesky team and the userbase is that the userbase, the people who occupy this place, think of bluesky as purely a twitter alternative and the bluesky team thinks of it as purely a coding foundation for others build off of

BREAKING NEWS: WALLY ACTUALLY GOT A PLAYMAT/POSTER FOR THE SLASHER DROP!!! SOMEONE AT SHARKROBOT JUST FORGOT TO LIST IT ON THE STOREFRONT!!!

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

When I was a kid, I saw diversity all over the media I consumed because we all understood it was a good thing. Now suddenly any display of diversity is considered dangerous. Wonder why.

As someone who spent college in Media Communications and befriending the radio club this would absolutely infuriate my mentors.

When this all ends, and it will, there can’t be any olive branches extended, especially for ICE. Accountability, punishment, defunding, and ridicule are the only things that need to be on the menu.

The reason this theory works is because most of our elites and leaders have no real views or opinions, but merely adopt those that they believe will earn them approval. And now they’re all seeking approval on the Internet, where everyone really is 12, or has the mental capacity of a 12-year-old

Fuck ICE and fuck Apple too

2 Oct 2025 -- Kansas (!) Supreme Court delivers big on trans drivers' license changes, declining to hear an appeal of a district court ruling made by anti-LGBTQ+ Attorney General Kris Kobach, who is trying to call a special legislative session on the matter. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars

this shit is bananas.

the point of having a comms team, just so everyone is clear, is not only to write better statements than you (which everyone arrogantly thinks they don't need) but also to give others the power to take your phone away when needed, because this is patently embarrassing at this point.

Everyone in EU, UK or any US state with ID laws on the books [or even ones without them] should contact their representatives and mention this data breach specifically and [link the article if emailed] Show them the actual, tangible results of all this digshit online ID legislation

So cool the owner of this app is huge asshole. Please keep this up Jay, its a very good look for your brand.

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

it’s really good when “technology of the future” treats you leaving as if you were leaving a cult

Banned Books Week is next week, an annual reminder that what we read matters, and that we must defend access to diverse and challenging ideas. The library has a fantastic display on the 2nd and 4th floor, and an incredible programming lineup for next week. More details here: tinyurl.com/cpplibevents

let's try something Like this Post if you will be less likely to open this web site when the trannies finally stop putting up with this shit and find some a new platform to give life to Repost this Post if you're never going to click a single ad on this web site while this shit continues

OPEN LETTER TO EVERYBODY WHO DRAWS MILLIE AS A HUGE JACKED MUSCLE MOMMY: Good work! Keep doing what ur doing.

I recommend blocking this person who has nothing better to do than to harass artists and report their CENSORED artwork. Don’t engage, they’re not worth your energy, just block and move on.

Get your wallets out
