Socrates Agrees

Funniest thing I've seen all year and so incredibly deserved.

Sweet dreams, Gizmo.

Have you ever listened to Sampha? His music is gorgeous.

God I hope so.

Their suffering sustains me. I'm glad they're lonely and I want it to get worse. These people are the stooges that prop up the hate-filled bags of gas currently steamrolling human rights into oblivion. There is nothing to pity them for, because they wish for nothing but fresh hell for us.

That's probably true. I usually hit them with a block and a "Less Like This", though no idea how effective that option actually is.

Presumably but I blocked him so who knows haha.

Much like Sir Terry Pratchett declared through Granny Weatherwax: "Evil begins when you begin to treat people as things."

When I thought the universe operated under some kind of cosmic / celestial / spiritual logic I was sure humans were born with a "clean slate", like animals, and you chose or became evil. Now, while I don't believe in said logic, I do believe humans start "evil", but can choose to change. Most don't.

You're just an asshole, man. I'd ask why, but people like you don't need a reason. That's just you being you.

So, this is obviously part of a bot network, right? Brand new account, barely follows anyone / has any followers, posts vapid nonsense that randomly gets hundreds of likes instantaneously? The name looks like a typo and so does the account ID. Aren't there ways to NOT let this shit dominate Bluesky?

Bro you know ANYBODY can see your replies, right? Maybe don't harass strangers like a daft and drooling animal.

They can pry my ancient Android S8 out of my cold, dead hands. I'm not using a phone that purposefully removed the fucking headphone jack just to sell us yet another needless, fragile peripheral. This is one of those things that irks the shit out of me and will only make me more stubborn.

Yeah some are just repost bots who harvest liked and reposts, maybe to try and monetize at some point, but thankfully they're usually pretty easy to spot.

I also keep being followed by accounts with less than ten followers but who are following THOUSANDS of people while posting nothing themselves besides an occasional biographical post very obviously written by ChatGPT. I usually block them outright if they're suspect.

So being able to hack people from afar is the new "snipe them with an arrow from sixty feet away" in Cyberpunk 2077, right? I'm sure once I get an adequately silenced weapon that will be more of a one-to-one comparison, but I've already learned how to map out rooms just for hacking. It's compulsive!

An orange and white tabby named Crookshanks looks at the camera while lounging on top of his cat tower next to a window.

A white, gray, brown and black ragdoll cat named Mash is propped up on a scratching post in the shape of a halfpipe and stares out the front window with big, attentive green eyes because he sees birds landing in the yard.

A tuxedo tripod cat with black and white fur named Polly lies on her side on the carpet and looks up at the camera. Beside her, a black, gray, brown and white ragdoll cat named Mash is posted up on the scratching post he and Polly love while they relax together, with Mash also staring up at the camera.

A fluffy white, tan, brown, gray and black calico cat named Kenma rests atop a brown couch while she stares out at the sunny morning and watches the birds flying to and from their bird feeder.

Had to take a quick handful of snapshots before I left for work because all the babies were lounging together in the living room and it was too cute not to document. #cats #catsofbluesky #calico #ragdoll #tuxedocat #tabby #tripodcat

Sleepy Mashers. Goodnight, Bluesky. #cats #catsofbluesky #ragdoll #Mash

Yeah that's absolutely ludicrous. This is why so many men are so fucking entitled. They do not have anywhere near enough self-awareness to feel shame, and then people try to save their feelings out of a sense of earnest politeness, and so the cycle continues. They NEED to be humiliated.

What is it about lip syncing videos that induces within me a full-body cringe wave that threatens to rupture my organs? I cannot stand to look at them. The reaction is so strong that I can't help but ponder about it whenever I accidentally witness people with YouTube-thumbnail-face mouthing lyrics.

Think I'll give Cyberpunk 2077 a try today. I remember following its initial release drama, but it seems pretty beloved now, and it's been YEARS since I've played anything with a giant open world. Can't wait to realize 30 hours in that I somehow replicated a sneaky archery build ala Skyrim.

A floofy calico cat named Kenma lies on her back and shows off her white belly fur.

Kenma reminding us all who has the floofiest belly in the household. #cats #catsofbluesky #calico #kenma

I cannot believe how beyond parody that account is. Shouting all god damn day about how they're homeless / jobless & pay no taxes to "escape the abuse" while at the same time using AI to make their shitty profile photo, therefore engaging with and FEEDING an engine BUILT on theft and dehumanization.

Every single one of your brain-rot posts is utterly invalidated by the fact that you use AI, one of the most egregiously and pointlessly destructive contrivances of the modern age, just so you can "make" the most basic bitch profile photo possible. But good job being homeless and yelling about it.

She's very pretty. Maybe Odessa for a name?

It's dinner time on this balmy #caturday afternoon and the babies are excited for their wet food. I'm not sure it will ever get old to hear them meowing in anticipation. #cats ##catsofbluesky #tabbycat #ragdoll #calico

Wow that's beautiful.

I toss and turn a lot at night, and now said tossing and turning is incredibly painful thanks to my pinched nerve, but when I DO manage to fall asleep, my dreams are so much more vibrant and lucid and I remember all of them. I'm not sure why that is, but it's a fun and oddly consistent side effect.

I have exhausted Fumes' current content, but I will still rampage across the wastes harassing other drivers, especially since I got a weapon called The Pounder that throws off my vehicle's equilibrium with every use and one-shots most enemies. I always appreciate a good erase-everything-cannon.
