Just back here for a bit to watch the purity spiral

My babies favorite game is feeding my chocolate??! She always says "daddy chocolate???" And will sometimes throw a tantrum if I don't let her hold and feed me chocolate.

there is no "just" doing your job, the vast majority of heroism is people "just" doing their jobs imo

Mfw when I hear bluesky has become a harbor for journalists

After 8 hours of deliberation my 1 month of jury duty has come to an end. Honestly being presiding juror was fun. I directed the deliberation for all 12 of us for two days, then presented the results to the court. Also it came out I am a stats guy, so I explained all the studies to my peers.

The ethos of this site

Is there an actual way to get an invite code? Or just luck?

People on here are dropping lots of the illegibility and anonymity, I am being less judicious with it. How much of all that is just due to fear on Twitter that some group, job, deranged poster, is going to go after you for some insane reason? Pretty grim.

Okay let's keep things fun and dynamic here: poast an old saved meme from your phone. This is a no memes refused party.

This is why we keep saying big Y needs to be deadlifting and on TRY

I'm the lead juror on a case in deliberation right now, and have had to work hard to help my fellow jururs to understand we need to all agree on meta level frameworks for discussion and reasoning before diving into the object level.

This is where I post from

Bluesky is the 7th eigenvector of Twitter users, filtered for sociability. It would be an oasis on any platform. It would be fun in a phpBB forum from 2002. Or an irc channel. Or on Usenet.

Anyone seen any good movies (films) lately?

Has anyone transferred Roman towel boy discourse from Twitter over here yet? I personally don't find it interesting, and if anything even distasteful, but someone has to do it.

Just watched "crimes of the future", I wanted to like it, but idk man, maybe I just don't get cronenberg.

Warning: as bluesky is a newer platform there are reports it is not yet secure against intrusions. Some users have reported seeing this man lurking around. If you see him *do not* engage. He is very dangerous.

Mfw I got a Bluesky invite.

Mastodon was seeded with really shrill people who were leaving for political reasons. Not a good vibe.

Anyone want to know my "hot take" on the political issues of the day?

Why does this elephant on my daughters book look like a Nazi intellectual?

Anyone else have a case of the mondays?

Some lowbies on here are follower mogging me right now. You can feel the tension. The status hierarchy is out of equilbirium: who is the alpha? These are dangerous times friends, tread carefully.

First person to do some try-hard thread on the state of the world or post a political meme should be mass blocked and kicked off blue sky. This is a vibes only app.

Rich stay rich. They try to make you think you'll have a chance, but the network graph just repeats itself. It was never about the software don't you get it, the real graph was in our hearts all along.

Mfw I no longer need to interact with the plebs
