🚨 Hey! I'm excited to finally share phase one of my latest project with you: grabahandle.com!

Funny domain names are just the start, I've realized that Bsky handles can be used for so much more than handles on other platforms can. I'm looking forward to showing you what we can do.

I need a new phone in a bad way. Currently have a Motorola moto g stylus on its deathbed. Can't bring myself to spend more than $250 despite it being the most important object a person owns in modern society. Any suggestions?

Living in the Midwest I always read these headlines as "people in my community are going to lose their jobs". I'm all for advancing society as a startup founder myself but people I know are always in harm's way as a result of these advancements.

What's the solution for this?

Every day for 7 years I wake up and the Nintendo Switch 2 is leaked, confirmed, set to be revealed at any moment. It never ends. We live, we die, we live again. Switch 2 is a simulation. Gaming is the government. We are trapped inside the metaverse.

When someone says they're into tabletop games and you ask "what's that" and they say "like board games" and you say "like Monopoly?" then you duck, deflect left hook, jump over sweeper kick, sidestep to

Am I crazy or did the option to allow DMs from anyone get removed from the settings? Trying to get them open for my other account. @support.bsky.team

Was your usual handle taken on Bluesky? Grab the handle you want on grabahandle.com

Even if [your name].bsky.social was taken, [your name].yo-its.me may not be!

Tomorrow I'm sharing my first Bluesky project, hopefully the first of many. Put some crazy hours into this over the past week and I'm excited for people to try it.

Wanted to make something useful and fun, so I built the easiest way to grab fun new handles for your Bluesky profile... with a twist.

Happy #Thanksgiving all, and welcome to everyone joining Bluesky tonight for any of the many reasons someone might join Bluesky after Thanksgiving.

Check out some starter packs, find some people posting about things you're interested in, and enjoy.

Speed is such a fun movie. Just the right amount of suspense and action movie cliches. The premise of an action movie that almost entirely takes place on a bus is funny on paper but it's a genuinely good time. The stakes just get higher and higher until it ends.

You bolt awake in the mountains of Carthage. You are not online. It is 217 BC. You are the general Hannibal, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Rome must burn.

I gotta know who made @skircle.bsky.social. Such a genius idea.

Ever wanted to know the amount of profanity flowing through Bluesky at any one moment? Me neither, but I still ended up making this: SwearSky, a flow of foul language uttered by Bluesky users.
⚠️ NSFW ⚠️ as it literally yells swear words at you.

Finally got Bluesky login working on the new site I've been building. If any #buildinpublic folks need help with it hit me up.

Not sure if the atproto SDK for NodeJS could use some deeper docs or if I'm just not used to the design patterns it uses. Anyways, excited to share this project very soon.
