Playing Cyberpunk and thinking "Starfield should've just done this" every few minutes

Thoughts?

And where reputable journalists and thinkers go, so do elected officials. I’ve been getting asked lately about a more serious + systemic migration to Bluesky among electeds. Idk the answer but it highlights how much of a breaking point misinfo & throttling has become for Twitter(& other platforms)

Former Musk pal: “He's snorting ketamine and tweeting at all hours...[his behavior is] palpably, visibly deranged....We’re seeing the total derangement of a personality based on social media addiction....[his] 'service to humanity' is boosting to 200M followers obvious lies and conspiracy theories.”

My "left wing twitter" is like 30% bird pictures and for some reason that makes perfect sense?

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

@hankgreen.bsky.social I think your take on Destiny was a bit off. No toxicity here, mind, still a huge fan, but your dislike of his abrasive/hostile vibes is one that I think is more suited to normal times. These days, I think we need someone who can match that energy on the right.

The Gaetz fiasco is beyond belief. Clearly DOJ believed the victim; her testimony put Gaetz’s friend away for 11 years on Sex Trafficking and other charges. And her testimony was corroborated. Yet DOJ didn’t charge Gaetz? Now Trump and his allies want to protect Gaetz, an apparent pedophile. Jesus!

A lot of people responsible for poor decisions are on a press tour right now because if they didn’t, people would rightfully be questioning THEIR leadership and they know it. It’s weak even by normal left-punching standards. Zero evidence more Liz Cheney would have won this. The opposite, actually.

It hurts

This site feels like twitter when twitter was fun and weird and cool.

Hello Less Hateful World

the cat burglar and his evil little sidekick

It really is amazing that we spent more than a year begging Meta to simply allow political content to be seen on Threads, and yet they’re so hostile to their own audience that Bluesky is looking like it’s going to lap Threads.

I still can’t get over how Threads was so committed to ignoring its own users that even with basically a YEAR’S head start, it’s about to turn into a ghost town.
