How do you like the self-help guides for retro collectors that @amylherndon.bsky.social and I made for @vcfsocal.bsky.social?

it keeps going back and forth between being infuriating and funny how much we study this when the answer is always the same and it never matters

Jennifer @JenYetAgain@beige.party in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with. this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US. Feb 9, 2026 at 4:35:18PM Boosted by 968: Favourited by 1324:

mom they’re roasting the US economy on mastodon again

I'm assembling an elite team...

Oh, so you support ICE? Kid punching pro-ICE kids.

So some dumbass kid decided he was going to protest IN FAVOUR of ICE and this other kid just rocked up said "I AM going to punch you."

What then happened was the dumbass said "You'll get in trouble" and the anti-ICE kid just gave the chillest "OK" before decking him full on while chadfacing.

HOW DOES THIS GRIFT KEEP WORKING

opening vim on all my friends' and coworkers' computers so they have to learn it to figure out how to close it

One reason you should be using the vim text editor is that, other than it making you look at least 34% cooler and sexier, is you have to learn the language of commands it uses, in order to use it.

You have to actively, deliberately, learn just how to close it.

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum.

Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

cool economic system we’ve got here, where the people who have all of the money and none of the brains generally get to determine everything about the rest of our lives

The thing is once you have massive participation ICE defense decentralized response networks on a block by block basis those groups could do eviction defense in much the same way...

Obsessed with that bit where Ezra says he doesn't know what his role is

When painting a painting does the artist need to name their work? I sometimes wish I didn't need to name my programs prematurely

I'm calling it now, for programming, the biggest mistakes ever, was pointers and naming things.

The thing I dislike the most about starting a new project is coming up with a name. I have an idea and then when I want to start working on it I'm stopped dead in my tracks when I have to name whatever it is I'm making.

a meme with two hands holding words : "the deep desire to be creative" vs "the inherent need to recover my energy from surviving reality"

I feel seen

oooh they rebranded Coke Zero caffeine-free as Coke Zero Zero, with a new gold-on-black label, it looks so cool

Two bunnies embrace. Text reads: "I think you are quite good".

A considered assessment.

Movie idea: CEO discovers that he's actually an incompetent buffoon and has no useful skills. It's done like a Truman Show-style thing where he slowly realizes from oddities in how people around him behave.

The UK using 'Palantir' and thinking the Evil Emperor wouldn't take advantage of that is just... *really* on the nose, isn't it?

I'd be so funny if any company ever admitted that some or even most people were not interested in some of their new features, lol

Imagine if an app popped up a dialog saying "Have a look at this wonderful new feature" and the options are "No thanks!" and "Maybe later"

ME: {jizzing}

HER: Don't change the subject like that!!!
