Bluesky needs to learn from Twitter and also have a community notes system.

I believe thereโ€™s an error with the piece, where the whole piece hasnโ€™t been published?

It just cuts off at the end while responding to that Mic tweet and correctly explaining the issue with it.

But feels like that doesnโ€™t read like the conclusion of the piece, am I wrong?

The moment Trumpโ€™s approval ratings started to dip was the East Wing story starting to break through, dummy

I support Letterboxd here. Review-bombing something you haven't seen is lame. Plenty of ways to make fun of a movie you hate that don't involve giving it a fake score on a site people like to use for their real movie takes.

Nobody in the Trump White House uses letterboxd.

Itโ€™s just a way to stop review bombing, which is bad in general. Melania is terrible, review bombing shouldnโ€™t be normalized either and something right wing freaks did to Star Wars movies cause diversity

Whatโ€™s your experience of reading on a Kindle like? Always been meaning to try it. The screen in your pic seems small, but Iโ€™ll dive into this experience soon

Thank you for doing a deep dive on this.

I think a lot about how measles was cured in the year 2000, a vaccine exists for it. And now we see measles outbreaks in multiple states. The Trump-RFK Jr legacy on this is such a disgrace.

The shocking collapse of American vaccination A somewhat surprising, totally terrible, borderline unfixable Trump legacy

I wrote about the likely unfixable harms of the Trump administrationโ€™s war on vaccination.

Though this dynamic is maybe logical, cinema and television often reacts with fairly high quality during tumultuous political times. Thereโ€™s books about movies during the Reagan years etc.

2024: Gaza is everything, a vote for Kamala is a vote for genocide

2026: wait, it turns out other issues like ICE matters too. Democrats need to listen to our exact demands now.

The NYTโ€™s visual investigations series has existed now for 10+ years. Their team has revealed war crimes under Putin in Syria.

Itโ€™s not the NYTโ€™s fault youโ€™re confusing opinion articles for the actual real reporting the outlet does.

Original link in the post being quoted is also a gift link btw.

Bluesky sadly instituted one of the dumbest policies in history where NYT gift links now donโ€™t show in previews that theyโ€™re gift links.

They used to, still do on Twitter. Actually ends up suppressing NYT links as less likely to click

The WaPo editorial board attacks Trump all the time!

They did a funny โ€œTwo socialists enter the White Houseโ€ when Trump met Mandan. Max Boot the writer of the piece above has always been a Trump critic from a conservative perspective. And WaPoโ€™s reporting still awesome.

What age were they? Itโ€™s possible if theyโ€™re a zoomer they would be unaware how a library works, because that generations reads less because of people like Taylor Lorenz forcing them be on their phones instead all day.

I remember you tweeting this before, someone older than me explained how it worked in the early 2000s when they were bored in the office.

They said their only choices were Bill Simmons on ESPN page 2 to read instead during quiet hours. Now thereโ€™s so much more choice for reading in those situations

Fair. Hopefully paramount give up by then, or somebody else buys CNN

Nothing will be worse than Australiaโ€™s main Conservative Party being called the โ€œliberalsโ€.

Good news. I understand the problems with Netflix and the future of cinema, but this should prevent Paramount and the Ellisonโ€™s from taking over CNN.

No, it isnโ€™t. Thereโ€™s a reason biological men are banned from womenโ€™s sports.

Find it so telling when people whoโ€™ve never commented on Australian politics before in their life, now doing posts about โ€œAnthony Albanese failed to make Australia safe for Jewsโ€.

When this same attack could have happened under a right wing nationalist govt.

Wow, โ€œbigotedโ€. All because he thinks womenโ€™s sports should be for biological women?

How is that bigoted?

The problem here is none of you guys can imagine people sincerely caring about womenโ€™s sports! You guys see womenโ€™s sports as just โ€œsports ballโ€.

This stuff matters and isnโ€™t bigoted:

Save the Serifs Warning, this post is going to be about one of the most boring topics possible, font choice. The Washington Post reports the State Department has ordered a shift in font choice from Times New Romanโ€ฆ

With the news that the State Department is going back to Times New Roman, calling the move to Calibri a "wasteful diversity move", reupping this. With an administration this bad it's important to highlight the few good things they do.

Investing in womenโ€™s soccer leagues, in womenโ€™s soccer international tournaments, breaking the records of fan attendances for games like Euro 2025 did last summer is the path forward.

Not arbitrarily just saying it should be a mixed sport. Women players want investment in their own sport.

It makes perfect sense for a sport like soccer to be separated by gender!

Thereโ€™s an obvious difference between womenโ€™s soccer and menโ€™s soccer. And women deserve their own soccer leagues and tournaments. NWSL deserves more investment.

The womenโ€™s Euroโ€™s last summer was a record breaking success!

My instant read of the story was that the โ€œdisability groupsโ€ who forced this change under Blinken likely arenโ€™t actually representing the views of all disabled people here, or acting based on real academic evidence that disabled people find that font easier to actually read.
