You know Bluesky has truly made it now because you can post a snide reply to a dumb skeet and end up getting indecipherable reply alerts from tedious side threads for the rest of the day.

Hulu ruining the Oscars is really poetic coming after Sean Baker’s speech about streaming services killing the movies

Is Steve Bannon also "on the spectrum" and "caught up in the moment"? Or perhaps are they all just Nazis doing Nazi things. Who could say really 🙄

I guess it’s not the worst thing going on in the world but I see these stories or TikToks or what have you that claim to be a POV and are in no way showing the point of view they’re describing. Do better folks.

If it hasn't sunk in: The United States is aligned with Russia in a war of aggression against Ukraine and the broader democratic world.

simple point i tried to convey in the post I just shared. if someone does a nazi salute at a political rally, i don't need to do a critical biography or do some deep dive on why they did it. if you want a research project, sure, whatever. but that doesn't matter. They did it. Thats all that matters.

like i have been saying, a lot of americans do not treat politics as “real” — they approach it with an ironic distance that allows them to treat clear threats and statements of intent as mere rhetoric. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/15/u...

My pledge to quit abusing hard drugs if appointed to an extremely high-level government position is provoking a lot of questions already answered by the pledge.

For those going home to visit family this weekend: • Samsung calls it Auto Motion Plus • LG calls it TruMotion • Sony calls it Motionflow • Roku calls it Action Smoothing • Google TV calls it Motion Enhancement • Vizio calls it Smooth Motion Effect.

This gulf between voter expectation and policy reality this cycle is, like, existentially blackpilling. I’m rethinking American history. Did voters actually reject Hoovernomics or did they just love FDR’s dope ass cigarette holder? Has it all hinged on random garbage?

THE UNITED STATES: I want to go back to the way things were under Trump CURSED MONKEY PAW: don’t blame me, I didn’t do this one

Delta’s CEO says Trump has promised to roll back a rule requiring automatic refunds on canceled flights and another requiring airlines to disclose the full cost of a ticket up front

And the plagiarism machine keeps whirring.

If you enjoy typography, Mid-Century Modernism, birding, and/or anything to do with life-improving design (city, building, industrial, graphic, etc.), then give Stewf a follow. (Also he didn't only just now leave Twitter — he was trying to get traction on Mastadon.)
