Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

I wanted to see how the exact same post would perform on both X (Twitter) and Bluesky.

Occasionally, groups on Bluesky will coordinate to mass report an account. This may lead our moderators to review the case more quickly, but mass reporting alone doesn’t lead to suspensions. Reports and user behavior are reviewed by moderators, not counted like votes.

David Lynch (20 January 1946–16 January 2025)
The US filmmaker has died aged 78. As a tribute, we have made the extended cover feature that appeared in The Wire 486 - for which Lynch also designed the cover - free to read in our online library.

not really casting the first stone as I've done my fair share of glib posting about grim news but seeing Americans begin joking about a health insurance CEO getting shot in broad daylight immediately after it happened really makes you realise just how coarse the discourse has got over there

Gorgon CCS is the world's largest pure carbon capture and storage operation. Since 2019, it has been weakly sputtering away out on Barrow Island at Australia's highest emitting industrial facility.

It was just pointed out to me that a recent update to the Bluesky client now allows you to block bots, trolls and chuds directly from their obnoxious comments via the right click menu, so I checked and sure enough, there it is (highlighted in the picture). Truly this is an age of wonders.

1/ We're experiencing a huge influx of users, and with that, a predictable uptick in harmful content posted to the network.
As a result, for some very high-severity policy areas like child safety, we recently made some short-term moderation choices to prioritize recall over precision.

If you see our reply from a troll under one of your posts, it is both helpful and important to:
1) Block them
2) Click on the three little dots below their post and click “hide for everyone”
Engaging with trolls in any way encourages them to stay here and be more active. Give them no oxygen.

How much more evidence do we need, after 29 failures, that the climate COPs are not fit for purpose? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
There have been many proposals for a process that would actually work, but all are ignored.
The talks are MEANT to fail.

Katherine Richardson er vred: »Hvornår er det, vi siger til politikerne: Vi sparker jer ud, hvis ikke I leverer varen«
Internationale klimaforskere advarer om Golfstrømmens kollaps, og FN fordrer herkuliske tiltag for at afværge katastrofer. Det ved vi godt, så hvordan formidle og fordøje budskaberne?
