A horse can gallop just a few hours after it's born. It would be cool if humans developed that quickly. A baby pops out and three hours later it’s texting

Manager at the hardware factory: great job team! These little nails you came up with are fantastic. Now, what should we call them?

Guy in the corner who didn’t help at all, but his dad owns the company: I have a suggestion

Manager: yes, Brad, what is it?

The β€œbubble” framing also fundamentally misunderstands what most people want from social media. When you go to a knitting circle, are you disappointed that most people there want to talk about knitting? When you join a book club, do you complain that everyone seems interested in books? Pundits and politicians may want to broadcast to the largest possible audience, but most people are looking for community, not maximum reach.

Most people aren’t looking for a debating arena. They want to talk with people they like about topics they care aboutβ€”whether that’s knitting, local politics, or professional interests.

This becomes impossible when the platform owner has hung out a shingle for Nazis, and your attempts to discuss your hobbies get drowned out by fascist propaganda algorithmically pushed into your timeline. That’s not β€œdiverse discourse”—it’s just a bad user experience.

Today I won a crockinole tournament but I’m not that proud of it bc half way through the game I told my final opponent that I had never seen breaking bad and asked him to describe the plot to me which I feel makes it a dishonourable win via mind games
