I wish I had a story like this so I hope someone else out there does

Folks who have dads/brothers/uncles etc. who act in these pathetic anti-social ways (online), what if anything has helped? Did you stage an intervention? Feel free to tell me your stories. You can email me if you like, here's how: www.sandyernestallen.com/contact

🚨Hunger Strike Happening "Noah" Amber Smith, a trans woman locked in Mens Central Jail, has not been receiving her T blockers. She's been on hunger strike for two days. While on the phone, the nurses denied her meds agin. She informed the cops shes on hunger strike. They made her hang up the ph-

Door dashing cause I got no money, been waiting in this parking lot for 40 minutes and my "offer with time" has gone from ten minutes down to two

@toni.bsky.team any comment on how we can make this site more welcoming?

Gwen Pepperoni got banned? So Ken Jennings got to post a non-apology thread, got a write-up in Them, and Gwen Pepperoni got banned? Love this site.

If you have transitioned later in life, please know how deeply you are needed here. Your story is the exact proof someone else needs to finally take their first step.

I know I just got a job and everything but I'm not gonna see any money for at least three weeks and I'm hundreds of $ behind on bills Please consider buying or sharing my latest release thank you

not defending the ceo who lets a pedophile run trust and safety, but it probably has a lot to do with the pedophile who runs trust and safety!

Okay but if that's true why are there so many Nazis and jerks here, and why is it their victims who are suspended instead of them If that interview was for anything other than boosting your valuation then why wasn't your other reputation for banning Palestinians and trans people brought up

Toni Schneider@toni.bsky.team · yesterday

Thanks. Yes, that's what I was trying to say, but took too long to get there. Our politics community is strong, and I'd love for us to expand into new communities. Science and sports have already taken off. Birding, gardening, K-pop, we're open to all (except nazis and jerks).

First therapy appointment in like two or three years today, job making real money starting on Monday, recently released music I am proud of in unqualified terms We are moving in a direction finally

let's pretend: Universal announces a screenwriting contest for Jaws 5. What's your pitch?

"I know now why you call"

"why do you call when you're short on cash" this is the Terminator making pop music

I made a tongue in cheek comparison between AI and cocaine earlier today, and my friend replied "true but cocaine did give us Be Here Now, so..."

Fenix Flexin’s hit song “Rubberz” has hip-hop fans arguing over whether it was generated by AI. Some say they have proof it’s machine made, but will anyone care? www.wired.com/story/ai-mus...

There are two wolves. One always lies. One controls the lever of trolley track. They're in a state of superposition inside a box. On the trolley are infinite monkeys at infinite typewriters going to an infinite hotel. The trolley must first travel halfway, but before that a quarterway, and so on...

Interviewer offers right wing talking point, @toni.bsky.team says "I agree" What is so hard to understand about this

Are all these people really gonna sit here and tell me bluesky doesn't have a chud problem? You really think "build your own feed" hasn't been cutting both ways since the beginning? Smug fucks lol

This is straight delusional, maybe the liberal bubble allegations are true after all

Greg Pak@gregpak.net · 2d ago

He cites users' ability to mute & block folks as a positive, which is good. It's also why right wing chuds thankfully can't get a foothold here - b/c they violate community norms & get nuclear blocked out of normal people's timelines. Bluesky isn't a *liberal* bubble - it's a *decency* bubble.

Again, you have to ignore everything that's happened that forms the context for the reaction this is getting in order to say some snarky shit like this

Scoiattolo@scoiattolo.mountainherder.xyz · 2d ago

Good lord I wish some of you could read on this text based social media website.

I think the idea that "the tech is the only thing that matters here" is just, unintentionally or not, running cover for the bigotry that is deeply ingrained into how @bsky.app operates as a company

My objection is that historically bluesky itself has been extremely selective about whom it is "open to" Why is everyone talking about this like this site launched yesterday

John Scalzi@scalzi.com · 2d ago

I don't really have an objection to the CEO saying Bluesky is open to all; it's kind of his job to do that. But as others have pointed out, the design of the site means it's harder for trolls/bots/chuds *and also* influencers/hypebeasts to get traction. The "bubble" here is actually normal humans.

I dunno, if you ignore the context of how bluesky actually treats its users then maybe Imo he'd already blown it by accepting the fascist framing of this sites culture to begin with
