I realize the real case is far more serious but all I can picture is this scene from the Dreamworks movie Monsters Vs Aliens

In light of the fantastic news that Wallace Shawn is canvassing for Zohran

Does your work explore mis/disinformation, scams, hate speech, or other forms of harmful information online?

We are convening a CSCW workshop to bring together a global community focused on information disorder. We welcome 2-6 page submissions, due August 8th.

Watching Jewell Loyd and Breanna Stewart play basketball where, as a pregame hype song, they played Macklemore’s “Can’t Hold Us” - almost feels like I’m back in Seattle! 😁

The High Line park in Chelsea/west Manhattan is such a cool concept :)

Graphing it for the entirety of 2025, that is quite a large spike today

Cannot recommend @premeemohamed.com’s sequel “We Speak Through The Mountain” highly enough - felt incredibly relevant to the current moment. #booksky 📚

This seems like it’d be a fun trend :)

Another question for the Bluesky API, want to make sure I understand this correctly. The applicable rate limit for view-only API queries (e.g. getFollowers, getFollows, getPosts, etc.) is the global rate limit of 3,000 per 5 minutes, right? Screenshot from docs.bsky.app/docs/advance...

By far the earliest I've been to any social media platform 😂 excited to see where this platform/network goes next!

A perfect album that came out when I was 21.

Of all of CHVRCHES’ albums, this one is definitely my favorite (even though the others are great too)

Y’all, you NEED to read @older.bsky.social ‘s short story “Tear Tracks” - picked it up this morning after finishing Mimicking of Known Successes (also fantastic, you should read that too), and Tear Tracks was BEAUTIFUL.

Never got why this one didn’t get more traction, it was one of my absolute favorites

The new “Man With No Door” album by Kes is FANTASTIC, highly recommend a listen! m.youtube.com/watch?v=PYz2...

My experience of PA which was quite fun was staying in Pittsburgh this past summer for my first in-person conference :)

Using an image, show a movie you are sure you have seen more than 10 times

Post a meme made by you.

It might be “Ghost Work” that you’re thinking of? By Mary L. Gray and Siddharth Suri?

I feel like the juxtaposition of these two posts by @faineg.bsky.social on my timeline is hilarious, and also really effectively illustrates their point

Drop a picture of you that could be an album cover

Finished the Seattle Public Library’s Adult Summer Book Bingo! Super fun, and got to read some books far from my normal genres. Definitely going to do this again next year! Highlight books in reply.
