The Bluesky block means BUSINESS and I love it! It basically blocks the mortal soul of your enemy at the molecular level and banishes them back to the putrid slime whence they came and for all eternity. 10/10.

Pass it on: Bluesky is fast becoming a powerhouse.
Bluesky Is Turning Into a Strong X Alternative
Bluesky has a hint of the old Twitter magic, but the feeling of freedom it offers might be even better.

A team of students at the University of Southern California has officially set a new record for the highest amateur space launch — and they’ve set the bar very, very high for anyone who tries to beat it. via @laistofficial.bsky.social
USC student team launches rocket roughly 90 miles into the air, breaking amateur record
The rocket, Aftershock II, reached a height of over 470,000 feet, which is nearly the legal limit for amateur rocket launches.

Bluesky is already quickly replacing Twitter as a place where I am finding stories I want to talk about on my show, or finding video clips that are worth reacting to, etc.

When businesses talk about ending government “overreach” they’re usually talking about screwing their customers over

Out of roughly 153 million votes cast in this election, the presidency was decided by 230k across the three states of Wisconsin (30k), Michigan (80k) and Pennsylvania (120k). That's 00.15%.

This remains an extremely closely divided nation. Any agenda viewed as extreme is likely to face backlash.

If you’re more upset about a transgender woman using your bathroom than you are about a rapist felon running your country, congratulations, you are an idiot, an asshole, and you’re in a fucking cult.

I’ve seen enough to make a call: Bluesky is going to be a legit competitor to Twitter.

Sweet.

I see that talk has been going around about bogus block lists. Just be careful with the block lists, accounts I want to follow have ended up on one of them.

Next time you're applying for a job, tell your prospective employer you'd prefer they not do a background check.

Let's see how that goes.

Read this 🧵!
I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.

We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.

It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.
