It's wild how no one has actually asked a question about what I meant before deciding they know what I'm talking about. I understand it's very easy to assume what this is referring to. But you don't actually have to do that.

The whole economy is slowly morphing until it only serves rich people.

My new favorite thing.

i know you’re looking for it. here she is, girls. here she is, world

Basically.

Afro-futurism exhibit at SFO. Very cool.

Now that the government’s persecution of trans people has gone beyond sports and medicine for teens, where are all the people who insisted they weren’t "anti-trans" but just had some “reasonable concerns"? www.readtpa.com/p/reasonable...

Did anybody read this thread before and start paying attention? What did you learn?

One of my "favorite" dumb Musk things is his deeply held belief that other people aren't real. One of his first moves after taking over Twitter was to try to fire "ghost employees," of which he thought they were many. He's a murderous bigot but he also thinks Fake People are robbing him blind.

Would LOVE to see a thread filled with photos of Black dads. Drop a photo of the Black Dad’s in your life! #FathersDay Been missing my late father Spencer so much lately—and especially on occasions like Father’s Day Do your thing, Bluesky 🙏🏽🦋✨ I’ll start. Here’s my dad with days-old me:

Welp! dronexl.co/2026/06/09/p...

These assholes back down when we push back. We should push back more often. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/18/c...

I ordered a plate with fried chicken, Mac & cheese, kale slaw, and a biscuit. They gave me ketchup on the side. Can somebody help me understand what I was supposed to do with that? I'm pretty confused and dismayed.

They Feed They Lion, natou It’s very entertaining to watch www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/49117/...

It is genuinely awful that Dems don’t see being anti data centre as THE bipartisan issue where they could be making headway with average working class Americans. This is a no brainer and now they’re being outflanked by the GOP, Christ almighty

Christ on a bike, this is brilliant. And disgustingly historically accurate. 10/10

One of my favorite comic book nerd pleasures is when people learn how Cyclops's optic blasts actually work. It's not heat vision like Superman. I won't spoil it though. You should look it up. It's absurd in the best possible way.

I spent a long time trying to get people to worry more as much about corporate threats to data privacy as they did about gov surveillance, but the ascendant corporate-federal data-snaffling alliance is just so on the nose.

Last week, researchers identified code in Meta AI's smart glasses app that could convert faces into unique biometric signatures to identify strangers in public. Just as quietly as they embedded this code, the app’s 6/5 update appears to have quietly removed them. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

I don't think I've ever been asked to describe the feeling of restless leg syndrome. It very often comes with ADHD. But I knew I had RLS before being diagnosed with ADHD. I just answered a question on reddit: "Can you describe the sensations you felt in your legs during an episode?"

I saw something about this but didn't pay much attention. Mormons are finding out they were never invited to the party. If these folks succeed in taking over, a lot of white people are gonna find out that the group that gets power is way smaller than they thought.

That and … They like the power his amorality gives them over people they believe should be monitored and afraid . That’s the fun for them

Zuckerberg has shown over and over that he is amoral, and that he will pursue anything that expands his wealth and influence. But we still have to sit up here and wait for him to do exactly what we know he's gonna do. And people keep buying these glasses because it's "fun".

With its recent rulings, the Roberts Court has now entirely perverted the purpose of the 15th Amendment, turning an outright ban on racial discrimination in voting into a right to discriminate against black voters. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

they were pretending to want efficiency and cost savings, so he pretended to believe the goal was efficiency and cost savings, and produced plans for efficiency and cost savings this forced them to admit, out loud and in front of witnesses, that their real objective was to ruin people's lives

Calling predictive LLMs "AI" was a marketing lie and we should all really stop contributing to that.

Welp

I'm at this Chipotle and asked for a fork to eat my salad. They said they don't have forks anymore. Only spoons. But... this is a salad? Help me understand the logic.

Which begs the obvious question: 🤔"If crime and murders are down without additional cops, like Black civil rights leaders have been saying for decades... Then why did they need to add 580 more cops?🤡" The answer of course is that they didn't meet to add them, and more cops don't reduce crime.

I am also this many years old.

I'm still begging people to stop using Facebook. And stop giving people scans of your face.

The problem here is all of these people know they're in a race against the clock to get all of this done before the tide turns. And by "all of this," I basically mean the destruction of anything that could criticize the post-Constitutional technofeudalist society they're hastily trying to stand up.

Congratulations to everyone who said it would get this bad. Your prize is watching everyone who disagreed now claim no one could have predicted it would get this bad.

We are the designated sacrifice. Our role in white supremacy is to be the target when they need to release their worst tendencies but still feel good about themselves. Whatever they do doesn't count when it's done to us. You can't make them feel bad about it.

At this point, if you're a politician, just submit everything up front. Give us your texts, your email, your ig DMs, your browser history, your AI chat logs and your tax returns. Just get all that shit out the way. And if you know you have secret children, just stay home bro. Save us some trouble.

Thrilled to announce that “Drosera regina” has been selected for this year’s Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy! Many thanks to @olivieblake.bsky.social, @johnjosephadams.com, and the @marinerbooks.bsky.social team. Congratulations to my fellow contributors!

I figured out what my retirement hobby is gonna be. In about 20 years, I'm gonna start a quaint YouTube channel where I teach people how to build websites "by hand" like Bob Ross.

Putting a large facility in a small town used to mean jobs for locals and revenue flowing into the economy. Now it's literally the opposite. Businesses come to your area, hire nobody, pollute the environment, and also make you pay for their expenses with your tax dollars. Wild.

There is no magic. It's just us and what we decide to do together.

They literally stole as much copyrighted material as they could get their hands on to make these things. Whatever you worry they might be doing? They're definitely doing it. The only real questions are these. Will they get caught? And if they do, will there be any consequences?

Even though I've made this joke myself I actually really hate the "all developers have to be engineering managers now with agents" No, they all need to be tech leads, not ems. Unless you're having to deal with the agents' interpersonal issues and the PM distracting them and getting them promoted and

This makes sense

Vintage. From a bygone era.

That part

It's a euphemism for "this is close enough to what the professionals do. It'll probably be fine to take it to the pro league." It's like if you win every streetball tournament in your neighborhood and you start thinking what Lebron does can't be that special. bsky.app/profile/sam-...
