I’ll support a chair for DNC who’s willing to stop playing chess in a boxing match

I get the pushback to Bluesky in that it further bifurcates our media ecosystem. But at this point, Twitter’s content moderation is so nonexistent and its verified users so extreme that the choice becomes either move away from Twitter or be subjected to straight up 4chan nazi bile on a daily basis.

Social media is in desperate need of innovation. Meta is only letting you have a slice of control over what you see because Bluesky is here building for you.

Evening Snack anyone ?

Half the time I'm on IG I tap the wrong link & end up on threads. I'm sure they count me as an "active user" but it's all the same empty nonsense. Billionaire cowards like Zuck & Bezos only care about appeasing tr*mp & I'm not giving them any more of my attention

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

people who give a product a one star review because of damage in shipping, delivery, or anything else not related to the product 😡😡😡

another reason I've never run for office is that if I worked in congress I would be STRUGGLING not to leave daily jars of piss at Nancy Mace's office with a note saying "we understand you're very concerned about where pee should go, so we wanted to let you choose where to flush it"

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish. Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part. Who’s with me?

I’m trying to re-home a small poodle that barks a LOT. If interested let me know and I'II hop over my neighbor's fence and get it for you.

To my vegan mutuals: I've been a software engineer for almost 25 years, if you ever need help with your website or laptop or some other tech issue feel free to DM or tag me. I love you all & want you to be successful 🧡

Bluesky now has over 20M people!! 🎉 We've been adding over a million users per day for the last few days. To celebrate, here are 20 fun facts about Bluesky:

It's amazing to be able to engage with people organically without being shouted down by an incel who paid $9 because he's boring & miserable

this app is crazy i could never get this in a million years on Twitter
