‘Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.’ — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

On #MLKDay, we honor his legacy by choosing love over hate, justice over injustice, and hope over fear.

In all seriousness: the last 2 weeks of TikTok posturing and Zuck grovelling, combined with the X insanity of the last year, should show you that an app with a feed that you don’t control serves *other people’s interests* - not yours.

"To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed...The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish…"

I don’t want to force anybody into anything, but it’s a great time for Jason Segel to release a full length puppet-led vampire musical.

It feels wonderful to have been welcomed by so many of you here on BlueSky... especially the sticking it to Leon part. 😛

If your goal is to never think or worry about your ad blocker, Wipr 2 is excellent. Less customization than 1Blocker, but incredibly simple and always up to date.

There are just so many fucked up parts to this story: The abortion happened before Roe v Wade was overturned. A young man was involved but only got probation while the mom and daughter face jail. Facebook gave the cops their private messages. A friend turned them in. This is all just so so fucked up

Tuned in to a moment of Trump and Biden debating “smelling Melania’s butthole.” So that’s how my Sunday is going I guess.

The vibe on Reddit just seems awful lately. Comments always skewed more negative, but the place now feels just downright cynical. Sad to lose a sense of belonging to that community, but coming to Bluesky has been a breath of fresh air.
