Musk has sicced his followers on the WSJ writer who reported on a DOGE staffer’s racist online, history demanding her firing. This is a tactic Silicon Valley’s neoreactionaries have been advocating for years: Pick a reporter, dox and harrass, make an example of them, make everyone else afraid.

Squid Game really is the most torment nexus piece of media

Big sale on fighting games for those interested. Xrd is easily some of the most fun I've had in fighting games when I played when the rollback beta. Uni 2 has amazing characters and Music and some crazy in depth mechanics and satisfying buttons. Strive is still really fun and gorgeous!

Musk admitted X throttles links, and Threads is only a little better. But social media's quiet war on links has been going on for years.

Never has a crime so obscene been so confessed to, so endlessly, so shamelessly, so proudly

with more folks joining bluesky every day, more trolls will be coming in too. some words of advice from someone who's been dealing with hundreds of trolls on a weekly basis as an lgbt+ community moderator with over a million members for over two years: a short thread
