Never have I been more appreciative of @isaacklee.bsky.social being the AFE voice of reason than on the Conspiracy Theories ep 🤦😅

Good

"It's good that bluesky shuns x and y but I don't think it should shun z" lol

Then as you're apparently okay with telling said nazis and transphobes, go somewhere that stuff is welcome then 👋
i like bluesky. it’s good that bluesky shuns nazis and transphobes. not every platform needs to be for everyone.

but imho a social media analyst getting dogpiled on here for doing social media analysis is the kind of thing that turns a lot of (reasonable, non-bigoted) people off from this place
Bluesky has a growth problem

Bluesky has hit 38M monthly users, up 8M since March

Once adding 5M users per month, it’s now slowed to 1.6M. A 60% drop

But post volume is falling—more users, less activity

It risks becoming a ghost town with a loyal but shrinking core

anyone who throws something on a field/court that’s not a) throwing back a home run ball or b) a hat or octopus at a hockey game should be banned forever, period
NEW: Over the last few days, I've listened to more than 5 hours of streams re: a memecoin community, the WNBA and neon green sex toys

On what I've heard, the group's stated mission, and the link to recent incidents (w/ an "Inglorious Bastards" tie)

WNBA sex toy incidents may be linked to cryptocurrency group’s money scheme
The group's coin was created the day before the first incident, and as of Thursday, its worth had nearly tripled in one week.

@iankarmel.bsky.social going back through the AFE catalog, you think you'd still answer to someone calling you Ice Cream Karmel? 🤔😅

I’m not putting anyone on a pedestal but at every opportunity to be a shithead who throws marginalized people under a bus this man chooses the opposite and he’s wildly popular because of it and I don’t understand what about that isn’t clicking for other dems
Gov. Tim Walz is doubling down on trans rights — and criticizing members of his party who are retreating — at a time when the issue has become a political lightning rod nationally and back home in Minnesota.

every time the "what can we do to connect to young men and pull them off right wing paths" convo comes up i keep thinking "have the suburban libs decided to pull back on making it illegal for kids to exist in public yet? because that'd be a great place to start"

Every day should be like this for all of them. ALL OF THEM. ALL THE TIME. EVERYWHERE THEY GO. They shouldn't be able to go out to eat, to relax, to vacation, to shop, without someone making a noise.
Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

"people don't like my ideas on bluesky therefore bluesky is bad" is an incredibly popular conclusion amongst terrible pundits and perhaps they should consider that the problem is their terrible ideas, not a social media app with tens of millions of users

the biggest problem with the techbroligarchy (which they are taking out on the rest of us) is that they have no endgame—elon wants to get richer just to get richer, that dipshit that wants to live forever just wants to live forever, like they don't want to actually DO anything, just number go up

4 Nations has been cool enough, can we stop with the Miracle on Ice comparisons? This is a mid season exhibition... Lol

No they're not and no I absolutely won't. Look at people already lining up to make the same mistakes made after the first iteration: just moving on and trying to continue to reach across the aisle. Stamp this shit out, stop giving them platforms, there is no reconciliation
In the coming weeks, a lot of slow-on-the uptake folks are going to begin belatedly realizing Trump is both an inept moron and a dangerous autocrat. Our great civic challenge in these trying times will be calmly welcoming them aboard instead of primal-screaming in their faces.

When Herro makes the All Star team, they don't praise him and show his skills the story is Trae got "snubbed". Pregame they talk about potential transactions of stars instead of what the stars are doing. Nearly every old head talks about how this generation couldn't compete with theirs. Of course
What do you say?

A big part of the problems we’re in right now is the seemingly self-imposed requirement of taking (or pretending to take) obvious bullshit as sincere. It’s merely annoying in sports. In real life, well…
