I'm pretty much treating Bluesky like Tumblr. I'm reblogging everything I like (the lack of algorithm means Likes are functionally nerfed everywhere but the Discover Feed) and refusing to engage with the puriteens and people arguing in faith so bad it's like playing a George Michael 45 at 33rpm.
It’s really disappointing seeing BlueSky Trust & Safety rewarding those who want to turn this place into the Nazi Bar.

I don't *want* a "town square" or a "debating forum" or "to hear all voices". I just want somewhere where I can talk with my friends about Doctor Who or the Beach Boys or whatever, easily avoid horrible people I don't want to talk to, and know that my friends are safe.

You will commit an act of bravery tomorrow. It may seem small, maybe even insignificant to you. It may be that nobody but you ever knows it happened. But you will do something that requires you to push past your fears, and you will know it. That is no small thing. Celebrate it.

Fascinating factoid: Colorado has, for the past 100+ years, always been a state where the majority of people who live here have been born outside of Colorado.

The system loses less than a million a year in fare evasion, and the systems you'd need to stop that would cost $175 million to build and $16 million a year to maintain.
It is, obviously and literally, not worth it.

We have been at the "when do the guillotines come out" place for 20+ years now. As our options for reform and relief continue to shrink, so will our options, until we've got exactly one left. That's not somewhere I want to live. But this is where we are. Pretending we aren't here is silly.
