I'd close by saying it's weird, to see this kinda childish, contemptuous behavior from orgs like Bluesky or Tangled who you'd think want to attract users to their sites. But Jay doesn't really…seem to want you on this site. She seems to want the queers to go away without her having to make us leave.

The function of the waffles joke is an in-group signifier. Singal, Graber, and Oppiliappan are showing in-group solidarity; they're all in on a joke. The joke is they have institutional power, and you don't, and they feel contempt for you, that you still want to have opinions about how power's used.

So I'd like to show a demonstration of what this "waffles" thing is. Here's a conversation between *this site's* CEO, some random guy, and the cofounder of "Tangled", a GitHub clone built on top of Bluesky's protocol.
Please take a moment to really think, about the shape of this thoughtlessness.

Many people left Twitter because it was cruel to marginalized people, especially trans people. This is transphobia from the CEO of Bluesky. Bluesky is not profitable for anyone. Why would anyone stay here if you're going to take away the one thing Bluesky offers that Twitter does not?

Media coverage of Trump-Epstein is about how his base is responding, not about potential crimes he and others committed. With MAGA, most media isn't digging for what's true -- ie the news -- but rather reporting on how a segment of people respond to Trump's actions.

No matter how much money and power we hand over to them at the expense of resourcing our communities—health care, housing, food, infrastructure, clean air and water—policing cannot and will not ever deliver safety. It is functioning exactly as intended, exactly what it was set up to do.

Police don’t keep us safe. They do not stop or prevent violence.
The cops usually just show up after harm has already been done. And in fact, even by their own metrics of ‘solving crimes,’ they consistently do a terrible job.

Apparently cops saw Vance Boelter sitting in his faux cop car near another Minnesota state rep’s home an hour before he murdered Melissa Hortman and her husband and those cops just let him go.
