I think anyone who's interested in my words here knows roughly who I am, or who they think I am. I do not expect to be here long, because BlueSky has a habit of politically censoring me.

okay, Mamdani's initial statement about this is actually fucking disgusting. i understand that everyone is afraid of the NYPD but jesus fucking christ do better.
NYPD shooting of Bangladeshi New Yorker tests Mamdani’s approach to mental health crises, Prajwal Bhat & Biplob Kumar Das report. Advocates & South Asian community members call for police not to respond to 911 mental health calls, after the NYPD shot 22-year-old Jabez Chakraborty in his home.

I find myself thinking of what's propping up Mr. @whstancil.bsky.social as a public figure these days.

There's a stout pillar of support behind him, and I don't mean the @bsky.app staff who's protecting him or any of his online fanboys, or the political backers keeping alive his clown-show career.

@whstancil.bsky.social's bıgoted post gives me a pretext for chattering about that strange phenomenon which has clearly afflicted the #technology sector and others: thanks to the general military abuse of the word "intelligence", people have come to think of #intelligence as simply...knowing things.
these morons think that people are like, getting phone calls from ICE agents and we're all trading gossip. that is not what is happening. one day I will tell you all what is happening and you'll find it very funny

When I tried to copy-paste the image from Adrienne's post (using LibreWolf) the image turned into a bunch of parallel lines, which is some strange bug I've observed for months now when trying to use LibreWolf to interact with BlueSky. I have no idea what might be causing this strange image glitch.
Anyway, the now-deleted screenshot (Stancil got the account suspended) is of this post:

Hm. How to approach this topic.

It will be difficult for a self-absorbed doofus like Mr. @whstancil.bsky.social to accept this, because he's committed to the illusory belief that the scorn and excoriation which he's earned (and yes, Mr. Will Stancil has *earned* the scorn) are wholly *personal*.

Not gonna lie, the vibes I get off Will Stancil is that of someone setting up a classic "Why I left the left" grift

@whstancil.bsky.social is conspicuously a bıgot, and thus there's value in giving him special study on #BlueSky. He gave a sample of his bıgotry earlier when he pretended (a) that the United States of America hasn't had a centuries-long history of conducting and condoning genocıdes (cf. #Israel)...
February 9, 2026 at 10:12 PM
Ultimately @whstancil.bsky.social will be forced to call upon his protection, if he's to maintain his chosen social position.

He cannot play his double game forever. He cannot switch endlessly between pretending to fight for freedom while spewing brag and abuse all over #BlueSky and #Twitter.

This is a real issue with liberal politicians in the United States. U.S. liberals have been losing political battles to GOP fascism since 1980, when #RonaldReagan (or rather, his screenwriters) were able to take the U.S. into explicitly fascist government for the first time, and the Democrats caved.
I sort of agree it doesn't feel like Epstein was blackmailing anyone, but still don't really understand where he was making all this money. He comes off as a subliterate lech almost singularly fixated on sex, not exactly a wise financial hand. His role explicitly seemed to be "the guy with girls."
Last week the far right started peddling a narrative that the outrage over Epstein is a moral panic. Today, like clockwork, a more polite version of that narrative appears in the Atlantic.

I don't particularly think of the Seattle Seahawks as "my" team even though I've been living in Seattle for about a quarter of a century now; I have a peculiar lingering loyalty to the San Diego teams even though it's of the sort of backhanded loyalty where I hope they're total shit year after year.

And Mr. @whstancil.bsky.social is a BAD observer, a fraudulent observer. But this is typical of the modern-day #business culture. In multiple venues, cynical and ambitious professionals attempt to play their own versions of this double game: pretending to be *observers* while also hoping to profit.
I actually mean to observe, Mr. @whstancil.bsky.social, and therefore I have made my own social identity a throwaway thing. I do not WANT to be remembered here, Mr. Will Stancil and @jay.bsky.team and @aaron.bsky.team and @mattyglesias.bsky.social et cetera. I WANT no following, no lasting fame.

Over on the #fediverse, which is where I write these days, I have compared my own #socialmedia usage to *Raman spectroscopy*! This is something I've been quietly working on, drawing a coherent analogy between my writing and the act of spectral analysis in #chemistry.

I haven't worked on jigsaw puzzles in such a long time. They seem an absurdly old-fashioned sort of toy or diversion. They've become infeasible in a world where all the games come on a screen, and there's far less in the way of *common space*.

Jigsaw puzzles imply lots of room and big tables.

I often wonder what's up on #Twitter these days.

I haven't been there in a while now although, as usually, I'm haunted by the feeling that there's perhaps some point at which a one-day jump back into Twitter (an easy enough thing to manage, if pointless and harmful) might actually *do* something.

One of the most aggravating abuses of language that I've had to endure, in years of tedious argy-bargy with dullards like @mattyglesias.bsky.social and @jessesingal.com and @whstancil.bsky.social et alii, is one single word: #tribalism.

I wonder how the "Spam" label will interact with the hashtag.

I have been politically censored here, on #BlueSky. A "Spam" label has been slapped on my account because I have pursued a political villain (that'll be you, @whstancil.bsky.social) a little too eagerly.

@jay.bsky.team and @aaron.bsky.team do not seem to know what *spam* even is in #Internet terms.

Do you know what's especially amusing to me in general about @whstancil.bsky.social's online situation, @chrispesci.bsky.social and @deathbymeteor.bsky.social

He's a lawyer. He's a "research fellow at the University of Minnesota Law School Institute on Metropolitan Opportunity". =D

I have too many things to do today to get too wrapped up in BlueSky nonsense, but on the other hand I'm not sure how long I'm going to be here. I assume that eventually I'll get run out again, once I've irked enough people. This place does not exist for good reasons, and it's not run by good people.
