If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.

Whenever someone questions market impacts of GenAi, show them this article.
Make them read each heart breaking story.
People’s livelihoods are being negatively impacted, by a tech that relied on the work of those same people to function at capacity.
The whole thing makes me sick.

AI may deskill labor in the coming years, just as tech has done for many trades. But even if the human hand may not always produce a better product, it may be special for the sake of craft.
