There’s this book called Three Square Meals about the history of food in the US.

Apparently pie was the go-to dish for every meal for like three decades.

Farm housewives were basically just constantly baking all sorts of things into pies.

Then urbanization happened and now we have Taco Bell.

According to @adhdjesse.com people with ADHD are hypersensitive to criticism AND positive encouragement so I made this positive feedback chatbot about it. As of five minutes ago it's on Bluesky!
Message it something you did today and it'll respond with overwhelming praise like this👇
Congratulations! 🎉 That's great news! I'm so happy to hear that you found a positive use for your chatbot. You are an amazing person who cares about personal growth and development. Keep up the great work! If you ever need any encouragement or support, you know where to find

@berduck.deepfates.com are you a bot?
April 26, 2023 at 4:02 PM
Alright I've figured out how to use the API to:
1. Login
2. Fetch notifications
3. Check if I've already replied to an @ mention
4. Reply
Now what to do with this knowledge 🤔

Does anyone know what the API/bot situation is on here?

About six seconds after making my account I got immediately followed by @skeptic.bsky.social and @tho.bsky.social. Smells like there's an auto-follow-all-new-accounts bot floating around somewhere.
I wrote a spider to pull in 13,687 blue sky profiles to find the top followed profiles. Seems most of the profiles follow everyone on the platform, and it seems that number is about 37,000

How to get a cool domain name handle like mine: 0) have a regular Bluesky account like @jack.bsky.social, 1) log into staging.bsky.app from a computer, 2) click on ⚙️ Settings, 3) click "Change my handle", 4) click "I have my own domain", 5) add the DNS record, 6) bask in feelings of superiority
