This is the same Michael Blake who, in the mayoral debate, said that the most effective Democrat in the country is Michael Blake.
I don't know what his policies are but god, that confidence.

It looks like a pot pie of some sort, probably chicken (I've also seen French onion soup served with pastry on top like this but the color inside would be different).

Dennys will be legally required to pay for the privilege of having their ad appear on the Top Worst Posts Of All Time feed. They will have incredible engagement numbers but every interaction is someone posting fanart of their menu items in a passionate consensual relationship with Shrek 2.

Midwestern construction companies scrambling to figure out how to appeal to 16 year old communists from Brazil, because they're on the hook for 5 million bucks for the mandatory free speech advertising contribution as decreed by the Supreme Court.

VC is a huge part of it the narrative of Growth For Ever has infected every corner of the market. In the same way that every website uses React even though it was created to fulfill the needs of Facebook, and most website needs look nothing like Facebook's.

What good is that to you? Until all 33 mil bskies have bought that book, pursuing the greater market is worse ROI.
The only reason to complain about Bluesky is if you DON'T have market fit. People on here don't want your piss pills. The conversion rate is lower than the general population's.

By contrast, if you're dumping time and money advertising on the general internet, with a relatively low proportion of queer radical communists, most of those resources are simply waste because they're seen by people who are more interested in the ferret urine supplements.

Bluesky has 33 million users. Let's imagine for a second that they are all queer radical communists. Well then they are the perfect audience for your queer radical communist romance murder mystery novel.
They might convert (buy your book) at a 10x rate compared to the general population.

Bsky being a "tiny echo chamber" is perfectly fine if that's the audience you want. The value of every eyeball is proportionally higher because you know they want what you have.
This is why there are so many novelists on Blueksy and Truth Social has guys who sell supplements made from ferret urine.

Note that this scenario is only possible in New Jersey. On this side of the Hudson, you have to gas up yourself.

His birth name was actually William the Bastard, which would've been awkward if he had turned out a nice guy

Actually the King was just very small back then.
But a long time has passed. Now he is grown.

I have a Google Doc with about a dozen tabs. When asked for a word count Gemini will say "this document has one tab" and then get the number of words on that tab wrong.
