I think this illuminates a lot of what we’re seeing lately, which is that (even putting politics aside) Twitter has broken everyone’s brain and made them into Woody Harrelson at the end of that planet of the apes movie youtu.be/sUX_6Mmx670?... - ThreadSky

This made me laugh uproariously but was also a horrifying look into a house I no longer visit.

Remember the haunted house on fire we used to play in? There are now 500 more ghosts and the fire has spread.

the site is unusable if you don't pay for the blue check or have like a thousand reply guys to hang out with

What a sweetheart. Just bowing down to the overt hypocrisy that is if he did that exact thing to her phone, she wouldn’t have reacted anything even close to the same. Even fabricated nonsense makes no sense over there. I sure don’t miss twitter. Evwrything app my ass. 🤣

I don't mind that, actually. I don't come here to discuss scientific theory or debate serious topics (politics aside). I want to sit down with my coffee, see how folks are doing, look at corgi or cat pics, and take a breath. It doesn't diminish how intelligent I am. It's just a haven.

tinabeee.bsky.social•79 days ago

I expected something much weirder, but yeah, that's the banality of bait. Twitter is dead. Long live X, I guess.

The dissonance is the point. It contributes to a profound disruption of our understanding of what is true, reliable, or trustworthy. Someone wants the public confused and doubtful - at scale.

noacttoosmall.com•79 days ago

Milton H. Erickson, the renowned psychiatrist and hypnotherapist, is often credited with using deliberate confusion as a therapeutic technique. The approach was rooted in his belief that confusion disrupts habitual patterns of thinking, creating a window of opportunity for change.

noacttoosmall.com•79 days ago

Erickson would strategically follow moments of confusion with a clear, authoritative suggestion, which patients would be more likely to follow in their desire to regain a sense of control.

Musk can't play the Mighty Oz against a healthy information eco-system, too many authoritative and trustworthy sources to call bullshit. However, in a cyclone of confusion, his signal cuts through like a beacon. A fog horn for the army of lost and confused.

In Russia thats what happened, read about Vladislav Surkov. He basically confused the Russian public by funding opposition groups and pro Putin groups.

Is „woke guy“ now something conservative women adore? 🤔

The woman checks on her friends phone but he doesn’t cheat on her. He finds out, brings her flowers and apologizes for making her think that way instead of being angry about it?

And bluechecks (which are mostly right wing idiots) like that?

I also like that Big/Little Joel makes relatively few posts but makes a significant amount of videos about posts. He is using the art he is most comfortable with, he is a poster who posts on video.

cockremover.bsky.social•79 days ago

has joel gotten littler

brendelbored.bsky.social•79 days ago

He’s an elf now

There’s a small Joel to supplement the unsustainably big one now

A load-bearing Joel

That dude has a zuckerberg stare

ann-t-social.bsky.social•79 days ago

I'd never go through my partner's phone because I'm an adult and I value my own privacy and others', and on the off-chance I felt that there was some overwhelming need to go through their phone, I'd take it as a sign that I should get the fuck out of that relationship. Blah.

richardbuckalew.me•79 days ago

Under musk, Twitter is now a big funnel for developing direct mail scam leads

uofagrad97.bsky.social•79 days ago

Based!
(did I do it right?)

sarahmcb.bsky.social•79 days ago

Yes. I’ve likened it to political platitudes in the way everyone (mostly bots) are really saying nothing at all.

antiquequaalude.bsky.social•79 days ago

And it looks like it's all people from the middle east desperately trying to earn $10 from Elon for the month?

whisperingpines.bsky.social•79 days ago

Wow that's a dream guy

whisperingpines.bsky.social•79 days ago

I agree what a dream guy

myoriko.bsky.social•79 days ago

My issue with that video is him saying that bots don't make typos. Ones trained on like, twitter posts is going to have them. That's the point. To more realistically emulate what real human output looks like, typos and all. Combine that with a prompt like "make generic twitter posts" u get this

marceeeeeeeeeel.bsky.social•79 days ago

It's the AIing of us all. Please the algo and you'll be loved by it.

gearoidmm.bsky.social•79 days ago

It doesn’t even have to be AI. People trying desperately to get their own views up by responding inanely to popular posts. They have to justify their monthly expenditure somehow
