the funniest thing to me about the whole "bluesky is an echochamber" thing is that when me and my friends moved here a good chunk of our audiences came with us. idk why your audiences aren't doing the same but i'm not sure why that's anyone else's problem but your own

This guy has single-handedly driven some of the most dedicated Democratic activists I know off of the City Committee. He blocked me on Twitter for faving tweets calling him out for his transphobic revisions to the Ward 7 Committee's bylaws. Please do not put him anywhere near power, Somerville!

This video from Senator Padilla's staff, shared to Twitter by Fox LA's Elex Michaelson, shows Padilla forced to the ground by men wearing FBI uniforms who then handcuff him behind his back. This is after he is forcibly removed from the Noem press conference for asking a question.

Maybe I'm in a generous mood, but a lot of the problems of social media come down to this: In the real world, society has long-developed barriers cordoning the humorless from the rest of us. Social media shoves the humorless in close contact with those who aren't so afflicted, and it's annoying.

Every time someone complains about cyclists rolling through stops or whatever, I'm like "so you're in favor of automated ticketing for all motorists who go one mile over the speed limit, right?" Surprisingly, most drivers aren't!

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

"trump wants people protesting in front of the marines" but the thing is many are going to be, quite literally protesting the marines. the marines should not be on american streets. it is wrong, it is antidemocratic, it is fascist, it is contrary to how people understand themselves as americans

No AI. No liars. No kings. No bigots. No racists. No rapists. No sexists. No thieves. No traitors. No fascists. No dictators. No terrorists. No emperors. No capitalists. No murderers. No Confederates. No propagandists. These things may not be identical, but they are each to be defeated where found.
