Mark Ruffalo is lowkey one of the best celebrities on Bluesky because he’s typing on his phone angry about the news in a way that makes it clear it’s really him and he just saw something that got him annoyed

hard to encapsulate the culture of bluesky but i think it's the fact that this extremely boring post i put up with zero forethought got 2.7K faves and still gets periodic responses from total strangers saying shit like "i actually thought this movie sucked" oh really? huh ok that's good to know.

We need to start reckoning with the fact that many folks think being elected official means "ruling over others" instead of "serving the community". This is the behavior of Petty Tyrants and Middle Managers who cannot abide their authority being challenged by community solidarity and cooperation.

I only filmed the last few seconds of this shockingly long AI-generated “tiramisu in a can” ad I got on YouTube. I have been seeing so many AI ads lately… It’s getting weird
