So when is this platform gonna give us DMs

There’s always talk about how jaded with institutions and power conglomerates gen z/alpha is, but I’m not seeing this in my students. In discussion of targeted advertising, nearly all say approx, “advertisers just want to make people happier by showing them things they want!” Confusing.

There is no way to describe how dweeby I was in hs. My hobbies were my robotics team, fish breeding, and a toastmasters club that *i started*. One of my best friends made his own chainmail, just to wear, not for cosplay.

Of all the social media sites/blogs you’ve participated in, which was your least favorite? For me, MySpace, hands down. Never got into it at all. All vibes, no content.

Did they fix the algorithm on this thing or is posting still pointless?

if anyone out there wants their pits to smell like blue raspberry candy, heads up

so I have to choose between “skeets” and “x’s” now, that rly fkin sucks

ESPN on in the living room rn and pickleball is on and it looks ridiculous. some mf rly just said “there’s big tennis and tiny tennis but what about medium tennis..???”

one upside of this platform is that, in virtue of its size and non-existent curating algorithm, it kinda has AIM vibes. I click the app just to see who is still up and online. if Jack gives us away messages, I’ll never leave.

my wife, a normal human being: @abigailhiggins.bsky.social: are you absolutely sure about the shower drain measurement? me, a philosopher who is only about 90% sure that tables exist:

I do not know how to post on here, truth be told.

Taking full advantage of being around grandparents who like to babysit by doing one of the least infant-friendly activities I can think of: going to look at art! The Nelson-Atkins in Kansas City has a phenomenal collection.

BlueSky should really lean into the social following jubilee energy and we should have to allow the site to lie fallow every seventh year and it should take everyone back to 0 followers every fiftieth year

First depressive episode in months as I’m signing up for a new social media site. Coincidence? I think not!
