Shitpost or not, this is largely the state of the western left today There's a willingness to abandon all notions of solidarity if they really hate something, regardless if that thing might actually be helping people

My love language is "Let's play it by ear"

Twitter is a shitshow

Wait how do I tag everyone on this app

This actually made me irrationally upset lmao

oh hey! everyone welcome evan, my first boss at one of my first jobs out of college as a digital rights activist at @fightfortheftr.bsky.social

The fact that a Black entertainer who many KNEW around the fucking world from the digital space that got OTHER PEOPLE everything from blue checks to bank checks died in a videotaped chokehold While hungry is probably something an app whose popularity is creating around Black labor SHOULD discuss

Don't make me tap the sign

Twitter engagement is truly in the toilet

This made my entire day https://time.com/6275995/chatgpt-facebook-african-workers-union/

I've had "big bank take little bank" stuck in my head all morning Damn you Jamie Dimon

Bible is based

Baudrillard has risen

leftists on twitter: guillotine all politicians. they’re all irredeemable leftists on bluesky: hi AOC my bestie wanna see my tits or my ass today

Intensely aware that we don't have the Bodega Boys anymore to talk about Bluesky Are either of them even on here yet?

Anyways, support artists. We’re why life is as vibrant as it is today.

Here’s my art as jewelry <3

Wait why is the bald guy so angry

[FROM THE ARCHIVE] - 2020 - Project: The SIRENS! A cult sister band gets reanimated in the 22nd century on a quest to bring sound back to the last living generation.

this made me laugh maniacally we also are hiring — esp need a Typescript dev to help @dholms.xyz out. and we’d love help building out community moderation tooling!

The Microsoft Zune called it "squirting" when you shared music and I will think about that every time I see the word "skeet" on here.

Alright yall no more arguing about crypto or whatever else, let's get to what really matters (thirst traps)

really enjoying that the ceos of other nascent social networks are picking stupid fights with their users while the ceo of bluesky is just slowly shaking her head and going oh no

Protect Jay at all costs lol

I need to confirm that you know about conch eyes.

If this app were a song it'd be "Birthday Cake" by Cibo Matto Incredibly chaotic, you don't really know what's happening, but you love it anyway

that doesn’t mean blockchains are worthless (though i agree most apps don’t need a token). the user keys and merkle trees under the hood here are cryptographic primitives also used by blockchains — for atproto we recombined them in new ways that traded off some decentralization for efficiency.

I missed a great opportunity to drunk skeet last night and I am truly sorry

Hot take: I love New York

we have a great opportunity here to seed a better culture and environment for interacting with each other online many of us found a part of twitter where we could engage across differences and develop relationships. these guidelines helped us do that and they could be a good starting point here too

can I just say this exchange around uncomfortable makes me really happy infinitely more productive and insightful than shame posting and pile ons wish this was more common in larger discourse networks instead of groupthink and bitterness anyway hugs and hope to all internet strangers and moots

Hey what if I told you that 36 Chambers is the most important album ever made

the lawless chaos of being on a platform as it’s built around you is exhilarating like the wheels are falling off while the walls are going up

I...completely forgot I have to do a panel talk today

Watching everyone grapple with the realities of developing a solution from the ground up in absolute beta form I think is a good experience. The fact they do this while it's all running is fantastic.

Damn so the hellthread is a thing huh

Was just out with extended family and damn I wish yall understood how Bahamians party lmao

I just want to point out how stunning this is. Elon paid $44B for users/networks which he (& his investors) believed were captive to the Twitter platform. Here, the Bluesky CEO is actively telling users to try out other clients. Protocols matter. Technical architecture matters. Incentives matter.

Having withdrawals

I've only been on here an hour and I'm already obsessed Will be skeeting here on the regular

i’m not flirting i’m bruteforcing an invite code to your heart

who's ready to get GOVRNd

*breathes heavily* ok I'm here I made it
