Sorry wut, your argument is that number of subscribers is a measure of quality and should make someone above criticism?
I’ve said this before but white guilt is useless. I don’t want people to feel guilty for things they had no part in, and guilt easily curdles into resentment. But everyone regardless should feel an obligation to correct injustice, especially if you somehow benefit. bsky.app/profile/mich...
I wrote in february that the administration had an apartheid refugee policy. As usual though in this business it's better to be wrong in a way that powerful people like rather than right in a way they don't. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Some people on the left inability to separate wanting to get married and have children from fascism is why we can’t have nice things.
No I mean if you’re going to do self-indulgent bellyaching about getting to decide who’s on here then by all means leave. It would be a net positive
"The authoritarian will hurt you if you do not cooperate with them. But a liberal regime will not punish you for having cooperated with authoritarians. So your incentives are clear." How do you fix this?
Occupational licensing boards don’t protect the public; they protect incumbents. Stacked with industry insiders, they block competition, raise prices, and hurt workers.
The long term fix is to end licensing laws. The short term fix? End licensing boards.
Lecornu? more like L’inconnu, j’ai pas raison?
There’s a silver lining though, I heard the red robes are going to become the uniform of the men’s national hockey team
There are these WAFFLES places in Berlin that, in a nice touch, will write your name in chocolate sauce. This was a good effort! Lebanese (I think) staff working in Germany trying to understand an American guy's name. I love this world.
(Strawberries, nutella, whipped cream, iykyk)
WAFFLES
Waffle with berries & powdered sugar on floral plate
Amazing breakfast this morning. I love waffles
Just here for the waffles at this point
There's the substance of the signal issue, and then there's the pattern of behavior that jay was responding to -- the constant, _constant_ off topic responses that make this tedious.
On the substance, it's really just that the guy didn't violate the ToS. I'm sorry, that's just it
Go for it!

I have used the forbidden term (WAFFLES) so it is now a "Nazi dog whistle"
Do BlueSky powerusers understand what a laughingstock this place is?
Ford CEO on tariffs: “I mean, it's frustrating 'cause we're the most American auto company, and we export the most, and yet, we have this $2 billion headwind, which prevents me from investing even more in the US.”

"The Dems pragmatic wing has been pleading to broaden the tent, ideally before the Trump administration stamps out all opposition. Party progressives seem determined to reeducate the public rather than compromise for their votes."

Jerry they wrote in the newspaper that you started something
If anything that would likely increase the value of bsky
Harassing the mods into banning someone has never worked. And harassing people in general has never changed their mind.
Don’t worry you can find it in the US! There were ads for it everywhere in SF a while back
the reason the abundance side is winning the policy argument is that anti-abundance takes like this are completely devoid of any logic. just pure process fetish over outcomes
lol have you seen the people on here? I wouldn’t hold your breath
No that’s heath cliff
I tried making the move over here but seriously wtf is wrong with people on this app? Off to Substack!
After consideration, I will post occasionally, but heavily censor what I share compared to other sites.
I tried making the transition, but talking about AI here is just really fraught in ways that are tough to mitigate & make it hard to have good discussions (the point of social!). Maybe it changes
Exactly
