I stepped out for a while, how are things over here?

Yeah, I live in the woods, so that part is easy. And I work outside, so I get more vitamin d than I even want.

I don’t know. Maybe I’m just burned out. Maybe I’m finally seeing it clearly. Maybe I just want something that doesn’t exist anymore.

Either way, I think I’m done for a while. Or at least done trying. I’ll be over here, touching grass for a while.

Honestly, if you look at the big picture: has the internet helped us? Really? Like, in any meaningful way? Society feels more broken now than it did before? We’re lonelier, meaner, more paranoid. And the tools that promised connection have mostly just gamified parasocial relationships.

I moved here from threads hoping for something better. I left Threads because I didn’t want to keep feeding Meta, even though the numbers were better there. But I’m tired. Tired of having to play this game.

I think I’m done with the internet.

I’ve spent years online; making things, posting, engaging, trying to connect. I watched this place go from weird and quirky and full of possibility to… whatever this is now. A graveyard of ghost followers, algorithmic dopamine traps, soulless engagement hacks.

Sometimes, I just don't know what people are saying.

Is it me, or is there a new trend of stringing together absolutely insane wordclouds as sentences that follow none of the rules of written language?

Am I having a stroke, or is this real?

Well, if they don't release the Epstein files, then we just continue to know that Trump is a pedophile and a rapist.

The court of public opinion is the only one he doesn't control right now, and its the only one he ever cared about.

We know Trump was all over the Epstein list. And we see what lengths he went to to make it disappear.

Just think of what Russia has on him.

Things are really starting to fit into place.

As rugged as those ice vehicles look, they would be really hard to drive with a gallon of paint covering the windshield.

True.. but until 3 years ago everyone thought they were.

I think some comparisons could be made to other groups who present themselves as a well organized military force.

If Ukraine has taught us anything; its that some $500 drones can cripple a world class military.

Please don't invalidate my lived male experience, but if you replace all of your meals with doritos, fast food and milkshakes... You're going to shit your pants.

What an interesting way for someone to admit that they shit their pants.

Italy doesn't get enough respect for how they handled Mousellinn. They really set a standard for how dictators should be handled.

what time are we all going to the revolution?

- me when I learned that reading a blurb describing the basic idea of a book counts as reading a whole book.

Yeah, don't leave. Then we'll just be stuck with a bunch of assholes.

I'm celebrating the spirit of revolution.

I like the cut of your jib.

I wonder what the theme of this years 4th of july will be.

Previous years we celebrated *checks notes* 'feedom from tyranny'

Just trying to understand what it is I'll be celebrating this year.

Booooooo

the roku mobile app is advertised on a billboard in a city Alt: Roku City, depicting a city under siege by a giant robot, kaiju, ufo, an erupting volcano and king kong.

Current events makes me wish I lived in Roku City

I should have called in sick today. Fuck this job.

This is some fucked up shit.

What the Fuck

Fuck this shit.

Fuck it.

Fuck...

Is that why I'm shown posts from 20 hours ago before I'm shown posts from 5 minutes ago?

Whenever its been a week or two since my last post, I suddenly get a wave of new follows.

Which is cool and all.

But if bluesky wants me to post more, maybe let people see my posts from time to time.

Just a thought.

Super proud of my Veteran siblings out there risking it all.
