I don't have much money, I'm not all that fashionable, and my beard game is just all over the place sometimes.

But what does work, and has always worked for me, is that I'm *interesting.* I move weird, have interests, endless curiosity and I can converse at length.

Personality usually wins.

As an old nerd that doesn't do much with his hair and doesn't really care about clothes, I wouldn't even say it's that.

A lot of my fellow nerds don't look at their personality b/c they are so focused on their interests and not personal development.

Sometimes, they're just unpleasant people.
let’s talk about this.

the problem isn’t that women don’t want “nerdy” men in the traditional sense.

the problem is yall lack grooming habits that appeal to women.

Preaching non-violence while people are being shot in the streets is the privileged position.

Link your favorite non-Blacksky feeds (excluding "Following") below 👇🏾

staging.blacksky.community hasn't indexed many custom feeds yet so I'd like to have a list of creators to prioritize.

The way this nigga *hates* the Thunder is inspiring.
Wemby lost to the Thunder one time and immediately cut his hair like a girl in anime when it's time to grow up & leave that childish shit behind.

This is the first time I've seen a white person speak this plainly and objectively about what's happening right now without ignoring the brutal social factors at play.
pulling this reflection on white silence/fear over here, too:

I'm telling you, Black people staying home is strategy
A big part of why the Right is furious at White women right now is because they're increasingly using their Whiteness as shield and a weapon and it's honestly fucking great.
what a legend lmao

"Since 2025, the Israeli army has demolished approximately 2,000 housing units belonging to 2,000 families in Tulkarem's two refugee camps."

"Our neighbors, our families, our sad and happy memories — all of it is being erased."

Israel is quietly erasing Palestinian refugee camps from existence in the West Bank
Israel has begun implementing its plan to end the Palestinian refugee issue by demolishing its most important symbol: the refugee camp.

There's always been concentration camps in the US.

They're just called prisons.

Why aren't more white people reacting to fascism in this country? I don't understand.

In 20 days the work visas for Haitian Springfielders ENDS.
as of Feb 2nd + 3rd these folks are unprotected.

i know there is so much going on in this world, but this is a rural, industrial town

we are vastly out numbered and under prepared.

I will be counting down everyday.

I have 4 mental models of privacy use cases:
- IG Close Friends (arbitrary gating by user specified list)
- Off/on switch (only followers see posts; followers request to follow; when disabled everything is public again)
- E2EE (blow up cop cars group chat)
- Private subreddit (gated by a mod/admin)
I have a question for @rude1.blacksky.team.

Given the general open nature of Bluesky/atproto... is it actually feasible/doable to ever have specific posts on here only be viewable by a chosen group of friends/mutuals?

(Think like close friends on IG.)

The very 1st probe into police corruption was done in NY by the Lexow Committee (1894 to 1895) and resulted in them releasing this consensus.

Is your experience playing a game more than just the thoughts you have while you play it?
