seriously guys
Two screenshots from "The Simpsons" show. On the first panel, a grumpy bus driver says "DON'T MAKE ME TAP THE SIGN." On the second panel, he taps a sign, clearly edited from the show, which reads "Use the shield / moderation icon to TAG YOUR PORN BEFORE POSTING".

Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

So gather your justice and humanity, Illinois, and do not let despair overcome us when our country needs us the most.

cool story. Anyway:

Everybody block Jesse Singal and stay tuned, because there will be periodic updates whenever other bigots are found sniffing around. Blue sky absolutely will not survive the right wing incursion, but that’s where we are right now

We do not currently take action on accounts that share Bluesky screenshots with commentary, unless that commentary violates our Guidelines. We will take action when someone's private information is shared without their consent, but only when it is personally identifiable and verifiable in-app.

As I believe that Bluesky users are generally against the direction Twitter is taking, I have decided to share the Twitter social media icon that I will use on my website, #TheJaws.

The key is that when you hover over it the silhouette of the image is revealed, showing the killer.

Link in replies.
A logo of a dead bird with flies floating above it, in white, and in the background the X logo in black. By configuring the CSS code you can make the silhouette of the image show the killer, previously hidden behind a background of the same color.

Googling Stuff: Then v Now.
This title if the comic is ‘Googling Stuff…’ The comic shows two columns: on the left is “Then” showing search results with one thing listed as “the thing you want” On the right column is ‘Now’ - also showing search results but in this case it’s a whole bunch of stuff you don’t need: AI TAKING A WILD STAB AT IT WITH SOME BLATANT MISINFORMATION SPONSORED RESULT SPONSORED RESULT SPONSORED RESULT SPONSORED RESULT PEOPLE ALSO ASK VIEW PRODUCTS And then right at the bottom just off screen is ‘the thing you want’

The argument against regulation is always the same: “It stifles growth and jobs.”

But just as tax cuts for corporations have not trickled down, regulatory cuts have not benefited most people.

Big companies enjoy bigger profits. Working people bear the costs.

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy.

It’s not rocket science.

*Taps sign*
Meme image features a scene from "The Simpsons." In the top half, a character in a blue uniform is driving a vehicle, looking serious. The text above reads, "DON'T MAKE ME TAP THE SIGN." In the bottom half, a hand points to a sign that states, "IT'S ABSOLUTELY OKAY TO REPOST YOUR OWN WORK FOR VISIBILITY. YOU'RE AN ARTIST, NOT A CONTENT FARM."

And where reputable journalists and thinkers go, so do elected officials.

I’ve been getting asked lately about a more serious + systemic migration to Bluesky among electeds.

Idk the answer but it highlights how much of a breaking point misinfo & throttling has become for Twitter(& other platforms)
