Excuse me

In this week's FREE article, @seemoreevil.bsky.social makes a friend! An AI friend. Yes, he bought one of those AI necklaces and wore it for comedy science. Everyone read his article and say thank you, or I'm sorry. 1900hotdog.com/2025/10/upse...

Robin Williams’ daughter begs fans to stop sending her AI videos of late father ‘You’re not making art, you’re making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings,’ Zelda Williams says

Congrats on building the torment nexus.

“Two years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific war crime, killing more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapping 250 more. I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities. In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: adeath toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all. This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account. These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.”

My statement on the two year anniversary of October 7, 2023.

Locking this for comments says everything...

If I considered social media based on the structure of it alone, I'd be on nostr. Unfortunately, that setup is also perfect for the worst people you know so absolutely fucking not.

it remains really funny that this site was spun up to be a crypto/rationalist platform and then old time weird twitter people and others started moving over here in spring 2023 and ever since management has been mad they're successful but not in the way they wanted

I wrote the thread with the understanding that bluesky could ban users from other instances. I didn't think the current infrastructure is so stupid that it affects those instances too bsky.app/profile/erra...

It was giving me a bunch of errors, but finally blocked it.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

This Controversial Actress Looks Exactly Like Me. I’m Horrified. In the strangest way possible, musician Stella Hennen found her doppelganger: She’s a computer-generated actress stirring up controversy online.

GENERAL PATENT: Hi. I'm a talking cat. A Talking Cat!?! (2013), Trevor McFur In Crescent Galaxy (1993)

A Talking Cat!?! (2013)

Spreken ze Deutsch?

Another thing I got today. Apparently they wanted to release a chess game for the Odyssey2 in Europe, but the system couldn't handle it and just adding a chip to the board wouldn't get it done. So they added an entire ass computer that was wired to the cart. This is why CD-ROMs were inferior media

I love that thing. I can't believe it costs $1200 though. That is crazy

I dunno, for all the shitting people do on mastodon, small communities are more numerous there and that makes it more viable there. Yeah discoverability is a problem

Again, this isn't viable for an entity, but maybe as an individual? Sure

I find this as a problem because in my perspective, if I was the owner of a domain on the AT protocol and bluesky being bluesky, I'd just blacklist it for the haphazard use of its own moderation policies creating a toxic environment that would only branch out.

As someone that just migrated, I just want to point out that this doesn't entirely solve the problem. Bluesky claims itself as decentralized and technically has the backend to be so, operationally it isn't treated as such and because of this, the heavy load of traffic is just on bluesky.

Your waffles are dry af

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.

I really don’t like contempt for non technical users

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

Fuck I need to get on this
