My new overriding goal in life is to recreate the strains of cannabis the Scythians grew and consumed, smoke it in a yurt on the Siberian steppe, and find God

I made this thread yesterday about Bluesky's decision that Jesse Singal shall stay on the platform.
When I wrote it, I had like, a kind of six-post coda I decided not to include because it seemed ungainly, I wanted to make my thread succinct. But I wanna post this now.

Continuing from this post:
TLDR: Bluesky is, right now, a relatively safe and usable place for trans people. Jesse Singal is on this site with the goal of changing that, as I interpret his own words. The Bluesky staff, by saying they won't take action unless he breaks a specific rule, are saying they're just fine with that.

I hate fascism for sucking the color out of my life and making me feel grubby and useless and small, as though my voice does not matter and has never mattered

Have you ever seen a sun dog?
Sun dogs appear when sunlight passes through a thin veil of ice crystal clouds, and the ice acts as a prism, refracting the light.

Redesigning my studio after the move, I had one rule:
The more often I use a thing, the closer to hand it should be.
I'm trying to minimize the need to get up, turn around, or search for things, which too often ruins my concentration.
It's my kinetic Strunk and White; omit needless motions!

if this is true, the continued takeoff of Bluesky would be a matter of world-historical significance: the contrived decline in referral traffic to news sites from social media platforms is a load-bearing aspect of our currently screwed up information ecosystem
Also, holy shit, Bluesky sends real traffic. Will update this tomorrow with firm numbers but journalism is going to move here for sure. Twitter is a drop in the bucket. It's over, but we are so back, and so on and so forth

The skyblue mushroom (Entoloma hochstetteri) is the first of the series so far to be blue due to pigmentation by azulene. It’s also the only mushroom to be featured on money - New Zealand’s $50 note!
