cold 🗡️🥑

whenever i open up bluesky i get the notifications that a bunch of people with .bsky.social at the end of their usernames all followed me and i'm like did one of my tweets pop off on liberal twitter??? and then i remember

it's good it sounds a lot like the musical

Review: Wicked (2024) this space intentionally held to acknowledge the lyrics of "defying gravity"

hi bluskies i wrote about the musical wicked for my blog if you want to read it coldhealing.substack.com/p/review-wic...

hi gabe see you in the bay soon inshallah

using bluesky as an alt for this post so that tao lin doesn't see this and thinking i'm subtweeting him. love you tao

autofiction is an important and valid genre but one trick that autofiction writers can play on themselves is thinking that an event is meaningful just because it really happened. in your own life lots of events happen without meaning anything. writing full fiction forces you to decide meaning

bluesky feels like 2019 twitter in both the good ways and bad ways. content algo is worse so posts return to shared culture references instead of algoslop. lots more actual celebrities hanging with a smaller userbase. way less sincere racism. it doesn't feel nearly as urgent though

wow

let's try it and see what happens

am i actually supposed to be posting on bluesky too guys? it already hurts my head so much to post on x dot com

2024 is going to be the year of bluesky

Scroll Art 11/12/23 - 11/19/23 art from tiktok and instagram reels that i liked

i wrote a little about tiktok for my substack https://coldhealing.substack.com/p/scroll-art-111223-111923

posting my substack link on the website that allows substack links https://coldhealing.substack.com/p/in-the-tower

yeah i'm not sure how she uniquely managed to get the "from the internet" label

no one sadposts on bluesky yet, seems totally against the vibe of the platform

that movie is so cute

it should only take about 30 minutes to read every single post from the past two months so you can catch up fast

Vegan Purity retrospective on six years of veganism

i wrote about being vegan for six years for my substack https://coldhealing.substack.com/p/vegan-purity

hey bro i saw you tweet the exact same thing on twitter and bluesky. is this not about expulsion of raw consciousness to you? it looks like you're doing this for clout :/

i think it's way more about understanding the pace of the evening and the vibes of the crowd, having taste is a prereq

i saw the new jennifer lawrence movie about fucking a teenager for a car with my irls tonight and it's crazy how much parasite-style wealth commentary has seeped into mainstream culture. the movie is full of commentary on montauk vacation home wealth gaps just as a vehicle for a romcom plot

snapchat seems like it's outgrown in my experience

dm to coldhealing on twitter

can i get some more bluesky invites to hand out please? i'm a young socialite with many friends who would like to be on the platform

facebook or instagram split depending on how cool they are

the internet is destined to be this way, with generational normie hubs and trendy parallel social media platforms that are less tied to irl and develop their own subcultures. the admirable part of instagram is it easily could have been the latter, that it became a normie hub was not a given

kids complain about how instagram has "gotten too formal" but it's a culture of their own creation. projecting your identity to all people you ever have known takes some curation. kids are more online so they do the projection better than facebook users and feel anxious because it has to be good

one thing i didn't start admiring until recently is that instagram has won dominance as facebook 2. gen-z will be on instagram for the rest of their lives the same way gen-x will be on facebook for the rest of their lives
