We already hit peak AI art and the fact people are still trying is pointless. AI art is at its most interesting in when it fucks up in interesting ways

When Black people fight for safety and a space being fun

It’s for **everyones** benefit. Always.
I just want to say that your work bringing /community/ into this app was why I felt safe making it a home back in that first rush in April. I'm so disheartened by how little respect you've been given for it. You built so much.

If your platform is not ready to handle basic hate speech, you're not prepared to deal with terrorist and violent extremist actors, and hostile state actors exploiting your platform and users.

If Black Folk don’t feel safe on a platform, NO marginalized group will. I will not feel safe here as a Queer person when this place opens up, federation be damned.

People are going to look back the era of cheap dopamine with the same incredulity that we now have about how everyone used to smoke and doctors prescribed coke and amphetamines for basically anything
For all the fun and opportunities it afforded for a minute I think the move from social networks to mass social media was a mistake and we're all going to be much better-adjusted if and when we start getting back into more intentional communities where you can't really be online microfamous

I feel like my generation experienced Peak Internet and we’re now on a downward trend.

Google Search sucks. You can’t trust Amazon ratings. Twitter & Reddit are at war with their users. Every useful news site is paywalled and every garbage one is free.

Turns out 2010s were the good old days.

Bluesky is structured in a way that's almost identical to twitter, and when I got here, I figured it would develop the exact same problems twitter had in the mid-2010s; that suspicion has been proven 100% correct

if you want something different, build something different

Smashing the gender binary: hell yes!

But we can’t stop there!

It’s wild how many places binary thinking shows up, when the answer is often:

both/and!

or:

third thing!

or:

ask a better question instead!

or:

there are multiple correct answers!

We gotta be brave enough to keep pushing.

Going to be the opposite of Twitter and view every thought on Bluesky in the best possible light. If someone says “I like pancakes”, I will think “this person potentially also likes waffles, which are also delicious”

Yes bitch, that is a supportive viewpoint, that’s what we are all talkin bout

Artists and creators, reply to this skeet with some work you’ve done and introduce yourself and I’ll reskeet as many as I can so we can find each other and grow our little community here! And reskeet this skeet so more people see it. 💖

Ralph McQuarrie's cover art for Isaac Asimov’s ‘Robot Visions’ and ‘Robot Dreams’ serve as homages to Parrish’s ‘Morning,’ and Leighton’s 'Flaming June,' respectively.
