I actually don’t understand why people like Lorenzo from Love Island UK (let alone how him and Julia won the whole thing!). He puts literally zerooo effort into the women he’s with

I live for these little perfect moments in songs like: - in My Cherie Amor when Stevie Wonder sings “maAaybe some day, I’ll share your little distant cloud” - or, when the last chorus of Find Someone Like You by Snoh Aalegra incorporates a gospel-like sound & so many others that are just 🤌🤌

since our public beta launch many have asked - what is Blacksky and how is it different from Bluesky? here’s the short answer. we’ll share more in a longer article this week 🙏

Blacksky features that set us apart from Bluesky; - Community only posts: Blacksky.app users can share posts only for each other to see - Human, community-centered moderation: The 1st social media app to moderate for anti-Black harassment, misogynoir, ableism & fatphobia

i still currently believe that free and open-source software bundled with self-hosted options are the only sustainable path forward for content creators longterm we should be educating and sharing knowledge on these tools now more than ever

the TikTokification of everything 🥲

Ok, America. What are we doing here?

🧵 Blacksky is looking to buy a server for $30k USD. We'd like the following specs or better: - 384 GB RAM - 80 TB NVMe; ZFS RAIDZ2 in 2 vdevs - 1 Gbps + 10 Gpbs burstable - at least 84 threads for the CPU(s) - Ideally somewhere in the eastern half of North America but open to North America and EU

- Blacksky Trending Topics in-app, completely different from Bluesky’s ones - Blacksky-Only posts, a community-only posts feature only visible to Blacksky community members - Any future features added to our app-view specifically

Remember how scared wealthy people got when that health executive got clipped and when some tried to burn down Altman's home? These barbarians are going to keep being cruel until there is a consequence money cannot fix. We are so far passed talking and voting.
