Well, I’ve had four people so far today scold me for being too harsh or too angry (on my own post) and tell me they came here from Twitter to get away from that. None of them had been here for more than a week. Meanwhile, I’ve been here over a year.
Is this what gentrification feels like?

...dammit now I'm thinking wistfully of the Closet Corn thread all over again. Nostalgia really can glow-up anything.
/Just kidding. I like Shep's Skeets.
Hell, the ancient Romans considered it reading to have slaves read stuff out loud to them, and writing to have slaves take down their dictation.
Humans are very very good at figuring things out from context.
A story related to that: last year I read Summer in Orcus out loud, and I purposefully did not spell out the pun related to one of the characters. (1/2)

For one thing, you have a place in this band. C'mon!
Glee may be problematic in so many ways, but I will say, a duel of the lack of indoor voices just might help keep some of the rent down.
That’s hilarious.
Who am I flying this at?
I've only just arrived and getting drunk on the reclaimed power of the Block/Mute.
I don't know what you said...
But I believe in these unprecedented times..
It’s almost like people who stayed on Twitter until a week ago valued follower count more than they valued the quality of their experience or ethics
That says way more about them than you. You and your starter pack are great
How are the innocent hardworking account-washers supposed to get a start in this economy, huh(?!) It's basically discrimination(!)
(August 2023. Late to the party, as always.)
People were always putting a space in their handle and publishising books on my account on twitter.
I shall go and say hello.
Doesn't have to be you
Meanwhile, use this:🖕🏼
or concreted or earthy mineral matter
may cause fractures to my skeletal structure;
but appellations, even in a derogatory sense,
have no inherent power to cause me physical injury.
I just ignore the bad mouthing.....
Ain't doin' the walk of shame for a 9.
Guess they didn’t know where they were at? Many here are old friends from original Twitter. I was suspended 5 times for language. So F that!
So yeah shits weird LOL.
Those four are definitely trolls or bots. 🐳
Some people have no manners.
Translation:"I expect not a single person of the millions using bluesky will ever sound harsh or angry. Of course I don't want to mute or block people I don't like; it's THEIR job to prevent me from seeing content I don't want."
Like, what's the point of switching if you are just gonna be the same asshole from over there?
"reply guys" just aren't worth spending time on.
thankfully I am a teeny tiny acct and no one cares what I say, lol
They'll settle as they get used to the different vibe here.
We don't do "we don't do that here" here.
(Exeunt, chased by a blue butterfly.)
by all means, do you.
😀

/*hides somewhere safe*
Got invited online
& was a TWITTER-Warrior too.
Deleted decade old account after election of Antichrist.
Arseholery.
If only I could use it in real life.
There are too many who believe they have a say in how other people should live.
FYI gang, best block me now, ‘cause I’m pretty harsh & you’ll be saving me the effort 🤣
I simply stated that I didn't like something.
They didn't like it when I held up that mirror for them and pointed that out.
*shh not too loud*
Or at least very specific kinds of war crimes such as an aversion to mustard or trash talking sriracha.
I suppose it’s a personal failing of mine.
(Last night's dinner was hamburger marinated in it with garlic, onion, and pepper. Had I not adulterated it with ketchup it might have passed as Roman.)
😁
If they don't want to see you, that's easy to control here, that's one of the best parts of this place.
THEY'RE the ones bringing bad Twitter behaviours over
Though I probably don't have the reach.
Shit, there's plenty to be legitimately angry about right now.
Enjoyyourrisingrentbyyyye
Apparently, being angry and/or harsh is worse!
