So many set to hide when I didn't need it or would have selected "warn" if I knew this was an option.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I think a lot of Americans like these centrist pundits are conditioned to think calmness is civility and that tone matters more than substance, and would not last a month in the kind of culture where people will subtly drag you to your face in a way that sounds excruciatingly polite on the surface.

I just think if your definition of civility is about the volume and tone of speech and ignores the content of the speech you probably need to start over

Very few people are psychologically, mentally, emotionally fit to push through a prolonged time of uncertainty & no guarantees.
And this is what autocracies count on.

i want you to practice saying it. “i am invoking my right to remain silent and will not answer questions without an attorney present.” say it out loud. it sounds so simple but when the moment comes, you forget. you’ll be stressed, scared, confused, & want to explain yourself. don’t. it won’t help.

So, Trump is going to drain the country dry buying Trumpcoin. And SCOTUS made this legal. Got it.
President Trump announces his administration will move to evaluate the creation of a "national digital asset stockpile" — making good on a promise to support the use of cryptocurrencies like bitcoin.
Trump orders administration to evaluate potential for 'national digital asset stockpile'
The price of bitcoin briefly soared, but the order appeared to fall short of crypto advocates' expecations.
