If only Ringo could’ve played too.

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.

So far, I’m giving my hard earned money to subscribe to media that is actually fighting back. Hard. Only $10 for Wired right now! Also, support Rolling Stone, The Guardian, ProPublica. Plus a lot of independent media like Marc Elias Democracy Docket, MeidasTouch and many more we know.

After Nov 6 I felt that, for my own mental health, I needed to bury my head in the sand for a bit and try to ignore the orange baboon flinging 💩 at the wall... but I'm finding it impossible. How are we going to survive 4 more years of this, that are clearly going to be worse than the first 4?

How I will be spending the next 4 years

So confused. How can trump have anything to do with TikTok coming back online when he isn’t in office until noon tomorrow? And even then, can you undo a law after the fact that has been passed by Congress, signed by the current president, and upheld by the Supreme Court with an executive order?

Tiktok time of death: 7:40 pm Pacific time. Got a thank you vid from @tiktok, then it just… stopped scrolling two videos later. It was strangely like watching someone get taken off life support, although I’m feeling more anger than grief…

There are lies, damned lies, and

I love how every old Disney movie starts with a “holy shit were we ever racist back in the day” disclaimer

Accurate

Welp, I've now written all 3 kinds of Rust macros. Where's my prize?

Interesting how many of us are processing this in the same way. I’ve spent like 30 minutes on threads & bluesky combined in the last 8 days. Haven’t watched any tv, not even Maddow. Just my own form of self-preservation.

My head says Kamala is going to win, but I wish someone would pass that on to my sickening sense of malaise.

Where do I get one of these…. election shirts…?

"does this game sell" "does that game sell" bitch, the fuck do you care. Half the best games ever made "failed to meet expectations". Shadow of the Colossus? Alien Isolation? Mirror's Edge? Is yer joy based on first week sales?? Stop doing free PR for corporations and start respecting artists

Psst. Young college grads: you know those recurring nightmares where it’s the end of term, finals are tomorrow, and there’s this one course you totally forgot you even signed up for? Yeah those don’t stop. Yours, A very old person

“Productivity is complex and multifaceted. We can all agree that Rust's edit-compile-test cycle could be quicker. This friction is countered by fewer bugs, production issues, and a robust long-term maintenance story (Rust's borrow checker tends to incentivize more maintainable code).” 💯

You know how every time you have to move, you feel like… that’s it. I will never move again, you will be burying me in the back yard. After moving from facebook to twitter to mastodon to threads to bluesky… like, can I unpack my boxes now and just stay? I’m tired.

The only reason BlueSky didn’t win the whole ballgame on day 1 was the waiting list nonsense. I was so damn ready to quit Twitter, and mastodon (sorry) just didn’t cut it at the time. Then Threads came along and was like, 30 million sign ups on day 1? No worries!
