@weisenthal.bsky.social will you please post one of your songs on SoundCloud to Wavlake? www.wavlake.com

You actually should read the YouTube comments on historical documentaries nowadays, as a lot of older people who lived through these events are online and have fascinating things to say about them:

Happy jobs day to all who observe

i feel seen

preach

I know everyone here is voting for Biden, but does Liz Cheney have a chance as an independent?

real talk

Does everyone here use a VPN?

Not only are there second acts in American life, there’s no intermission any more.

Elon probably saw Planet of the Apes as a kid and now we have Neuralink

@nytimes.com are you on nostr?

@molly.wiki do you think a decentralized Wikipedia could exist? And if so, how would you build it?

What does 2% inflation even mean? https://snort.social/e/nevent1qqswx492ahsj7p0ly06mazhczqg8aw2qzzx0sh2n66df2z0lupyn8lqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7q3qh8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wqxpqqqqqqz8sngzr

Hello Bluesky... The X was finally too much for me to handle. I get X-rated enough, what with the book bannings of #HandmaidsTale due to (eek) sex...

Reposting this from Tumblr myself because otherwise people will be posting it tomorrow and other people will be asking if I said it.

@weisenthal.bsky.social really? You actually did the orb scan for a shitcoin? WTAF Joe?

Blueskyちゃん、status!

more lies

Blueskyちゃん、status!

I loved this and wanted to create a little comic for it. This is how I imagined the exchange going. I hope you like it @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com ☺️

Follow nen on nostr

wow, so the coup will be skeeted

attention, you built the app

Funny to see many people arguing that (1) no one cares about decentralization/federation and (2) how awful it is that twitter and reddit have been destroyed by ridiculous CEOs. (1) helps prevent (2).

I wrote a thing about all the very, very bad interviews Reddit CEO Steve Huffman did yesterday. https://www.techdirt.com/2023/06/16/reddit-ceo-triples-down-insults-protesters-whines-about-not-making-enough-money-from-reddit-users/

If you ever want payments on Bluesky or atproto, that don’t give Apple a cut, then you need to get behind Damus on this.

iPhone or Android?

Humans already have a bias for being less critical of claims made by their in-group than their out-group, demanding more evidence for the latter than the former. The way social media tricks us into overestimating the size of our in-group makes that worse.

This assuming a small slice of the community is representative of the whole further tricks us into think that opinions and arguments accepted by our small community are widely accepted, as well. We think "*everybody* knows this" when, instead, it's only "known" in our tiny circle.

@nytimes.com news tip? yes, download Damus and check out nostr and then go set up your own news relay.

broadly speaking the kind of political action that the reddit moderators are taking is what we're setting ourselves up for it's the whole point. the network shouldn't run at the whims of one company

@mmasnick.bsky.social are skeets digital content that people are selling? Is Apple being unreasonable with Damus?

It is so over

I have the boxes.

1st indictment of a former POTUS for federal crimes in the public record for all Americans to read: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.648653/gov.uscourts.flsd.648653.3.0.pdf Charges include conspiracy to obstruct justice, corruptly conceal a record & making false statements

“How did you know he was the one?”

Censorship resistant internet access 🤝 censorship resistant money 🤝 censorship resistant social communication. Sadly, most people don't care about these things until they need them or their friends or family needs them. It's up to us to help with education on TOR, Bitcoin, and Nostr.

Kennedy/Yang, anyone?

Hear me out, what if every country just got rid of schools that taught military propaganda?

They’re bringing back the Concorde! LFG

I have lots of invites for people who want to post pasta

Question: what is keeping so many people from changing from bsky.social to URLs they own? 1) Fear of losing that bsky.social name? 2) Fear of someone pretending to be them if they lose the bsky.social name? 3) Don't own any domain names? 4) Indecision? 5) Too technical to add a txt file to the DNS?

Almost reached 1000 people in the TestFlight which is just insane

Q: How would you describe Bluesky to a friend? A:

devs, do something
