Inverted Vibe Curve

This was also my reaction!

This is a perfect example of why democracy cannot and should not be equated with just chasing polls/popularism. This is just complete bullshit and the (British) electorate are acting like morons here.

Lmao so today the FTC is holding a "workshop" scapegoating trans kids & threatening their access to lifesaving healthcare. @fightforthefuture.org is driving this billboard truck past the building and it's BLARING "Protect Trans Kids" by me and @ryancassata.bsky.social

WTF is wrong with them indeed

Yeah, being on Twitter is both a personal addiction and a professional necessity for me: I could not do my job nearly as effectively without it!

I have no idea, lol!

My guess is that I'll probably check both but be way more active on Twitter unless I can rebuild my mutual network here.

I think this is correct beyond any doubt. If a primary without Biden had taken place and Harris had been able to actually build a campaign from scratch, then I think we would be able to attribute more of the outcome to her actions. But that didn't happen.

i think the electoral fundamentals matter more than anything Kamala or Bernie did

Bluesky search defaulting to people you follow is a huge improvement over Twitter's increasingly non-functional search feature.

I have finally given in and made a Bluesky account. Deeply annoyed that I have to rebuild my following/followers from scratch, but excited to see a bunch of people who understandably bailed on Twitter before I did.
