I’m hoping bluesky can be a place to connect, share, learn, laugh and grow communities. So let’s chat! (Bonus picture of me rocking pearls and my cowboy hat in Texas living my best broke back mountain life)

This Game of Thrones quote feels especially poignant: “Any man who must say 'I am the king' is no true king.”

Can’t believe this is the first time I’ve watched traitors. What an emotional rollercoaster 😭

I discovered a bug today on a website I'm working on that is only affecting Firefox users. After looking into how much impact this would be having on the users, I've found that Firefox has lost so much of the market share. It's still my preferred browser... What happened?

Todays the day where megalomaniacs promise to fix problems they caused, give back things they took away, solve problems that do not exist, and take credit for work they did not do.

Civil War (2024) had the budget and potential to be a defining work of the decade, tackling the pressing political and social divisions shaping America and the world in 2025. Unfortunately, it falls far short of its ambition.

The Germans had the same issue…
In case you were wondering, Elon Musk’s social media platform is now suddenly full of experts on everything about wildfires.

Also, the wildfires were apparently caused by woke fire hydrants and DEI firefighters.

Remember when everyone was saying we were born too late for the golden age but too early for flying cars. 💀
Would be nice to live through fewer of the main episodes of history for a while and more of the ad breaks

Icy McIcy this morning. Felt like that scene from Day After Tomorrow where the ice creeps in through the door.

BlueSky does seem to be the only organic social media with any chance of a future.
The internet's platforms feel like they've degraded beyond repair—they're full of ads and AI-generated slop, and the companies behind them are not even trying to innovate. My end-of-the-year column for @fastcompany.com about the end of the web as we know it.
It's the end of the internet as we know it—and I feel fine
Maybe this was the last year of the usable web. If so, blame corporate greed.
