forever

For a time last year I became obsessed with #timelapse. #tokyo #japan #cozy #bookstore

One of those wealthy donors organized a voter registration drive *under the pretense of a fake lottery* on behalf of the candidate who *tried to steal a presidential election* and instead of seeing articles about that, I'm seeing ones about how Kamala Harris should have been on more Gen Z podcasts.

NYT leaned (very) heavily into op-ed culture ten years ago which worked to demolish their reputation for unbiased journalism. Four years of anti-Trump essays sold lots of subscriptions, but the result is that half of the country now thinks "journalism" is using big words to dunk on the opposition.

Brace yourselves...

Elon Musk buys #Twitter

"Socialism is half capitalism half communism" might be the dumbest Elon Musk take I've seen, and he says an extraordinary amount of really stupid things.

Thank you, Brazilians, for making me an elder.

Loving the tattoo aesthetic in Silo, the new Apple+ Dystopian sci fi.

I remember when I first learned what png was. I was so snobby about it, I would literally scoff at jpegs. Even today, many years later, I'll pick it even when there's zero upside to doing so.

I want to make a bsky account called "bangers" where I post bangers in leu of a bookmark button. (I really just want bookmarks)

Using an invite-only Bluesky thread as a source for an article is an interesting technique.

I hate puns and pun adjacent humor but this is a banger.

Everyone who participated in the hellthread should get a badge.

Me, desperately trying to parse out the definition of problematic accounts so I don't be one

One of my favorite things about human beings is that we will invent clout out of thin air and everyone will nod in earnest agreement.

My brain has been so Twittered that I saw this and reflectively started to block the ad. Turns out this is not an ad, there are no ads, and I cannot block anything.

So far, Bsky feels like watching one of those amoeba evolution games play out in realtime.

I feel so alive.

I'm sitting here searching Twitter to find people to follow here so that here doesn't feel too different from Twitter. I'm missing something inside.
