I’ll figure out a better way to articulate this soon but: we don’t have social media any more, we just have platforms people we know are on. There’s nothing social about them.
Wild to be a part of the micro generation and niche community who experienced the birth of online social media as well as the mainstream death of it.

When considering what went so wrong with the internet, former @buzzfeed.com editor Cates Holderness (@cates.bsky.social) shared with LONG SHADOW: BREAKING THE INTERNET host Garrett Graff (@vermontgmg.bsky.social), "I think a whole lot went wrong. The internet we have in 2025 is fractured."
I WILL FUCKING BAN YOU
Basically, the right-wing wants you to think that being racist is the most dangerous (and cool) thing you can do right now. Films like The People's Joker and Nirvanna The Band The Movie prove the most dangerous thing for algorithmic streaming platforms is actually copyright infringement.
hit low power mode while reading fanfic, love to be single in my 40s
this is the best thread I have seen on bsky to date!!
little bit of both actually. i live in constant fear of a CMS crashing without autosaving bc i cut my teeth on 2011-era CMS' that did just that. but also, jesus it was bleak to watch that issue unfold.
look I know I’m not In Corporate anymore but I will never be able to suppress my desire for More Data like fuck off gimme those indicators lemme make a spreadsheet
Watching Ryan write this piece directly in the CMS was a weird experience. I know he Does That but every edit and new graf made me nauseous. It’s a stellar piece and excellent reporting.
Very, very proud to work with a team that stands for our beliefs and isn’t beholden to corporate bullshit.
sorry to go vegan on main but everyone losing their minds about Veronica the cow using Cow Tools like go vegan just eat beans instead of cows if you think she’s amazing
ICE agents are, simply put, fucking clowns. According to The Atlantic, they receive 47 days of training — in honor of Trump, the 47th president, naturally. Many of them, also, can barely read or write, apparently. The ones I spent the weekend following around didn’t even have proper uniforms, with some wearing sneakers. In Minnesota. In January. These dipshits are also wearing camo in the snow. They clearly do not have any training when it comes to their own weapons either. Multiple times over the last few days, I watched officers fire pepper spray balls at the feet of protestors barely a few inches away from them. These weapons are basically paintball guns full of concentrated pepper spray. So when they hit a target, they explode into the air. Which meant ICE agents regularly ended up poisoning themselves with their own weapons. I also watched two agents ask each other if a canister they were about to fire at the crowd was tear gas or a stun grenade. (It ended up being a stun grenade that then ignited the tear gas they had already shot at us, which started a fire in the street that a protestor had to help them put out.)
ICE agents are, simply put, fucking clowns. Some observations from four days on the ground in Minneapolis.

The Golden Globes pushing polymarket predictions is disgusting to me actually!!
Ryan and Grant are back on the ground this morning
Happy 13th birthday to the most essential artwork of the current era, @kcg.bsky.social ‘s “This is fine,” to all those who celebrate.
Here in Minneapolis with @grantirving.bsky.social. ICE agents filming protesters in front of the federal building. One protester tells us they've been protesting out here for over four hours today.
ALSO we have a 30-day free trial offer running until Thursday!!
please i'm begging you!!! when ryan hired me he told me hitting 100k subscribers by the end of the year was his biggest goal and therefore my biggest goal as well!
nothing made me happier than getting the gang back together for this!! you're welcome/sorry!
Direct request from the kid to see him yes!
It was a cool shirt to be clear, no shade!! They were an awesome family!
Thinking about the time two decades ago when I worked at kennels and a couple who were fav clients dropped their basset hounds Rupert and Douglas off cause they were taking their 10yo kid to ATL to see Tom Waits live at the kid’s req and I lost my goddamn mind. They brought me back a shirt.
Thank you so much for the interview!!
All year I've been thinking about what discovery looks like in a post-search era. I love that we now often look to great human curators. So I'm starting a new series interviewing some of my favourites! First up @cates.bsky.social from @garbageday.email
