Not for nothing, BlueSky was the platform which allowed the n-word in usernames and didn't even apologise when people complained.

@jeffowski
Why could a smart guy like Erasmus not spell "arrogance'?

@NanoRaptor I think I once had "Top of the class. Should try harder".

I've done a number of interviews with a guitar hung on the wall behind me and I'd love to know if that improves my rating.

@gedeonm Which kinds of things have been Sherlocked? I'm kind of out of the loop.

@breadandcircuses
Why would that get anyone banned? Almost nothing gets you banned from Twitter nowadays. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

@timnitGebru
I am only realising just now the implications of his phrase "tech Zionism" — he thinks that all tech people think like him?

He thinks all tech people are Musk-like "rational" libertarians who think it's empirically true that Black people are not as intelligent as white people, et cetera ?

This is like when Dave Chapelle tells us how Black people regard trans people, as if nobody could be both.

@chargrille

I was sure I'd seen it for a moment but I was thinking of The Starling Girl, because … birds! That is also an interesting movie and I suppose you could call it feminist.

I'm not quite getting the reference … Yiddish speakers use certain forms of wishful speech rather than saying stuff directly?

If it's #STFUfriday everyone should watch this video again. Actual concrete examples, a cop and a lawyer both telling you the same thing.

Oh god, been there.

The key element in a podcast RSS feed is <enclosure>

@polotek
What's the fundamental difference between quoting a post and simply making a new post with a link in it to the one you're talking about?

Technically, psychologically, philosophically, what's the difference?

@ct_bergstrom
Hey but don't forget all that growth in Japan where <checks notes> they suffered two horrible catastrophes in a few days and Twitter actually prevented them from finding out key information.

@georgepenney

> "Mum needs SPOONS!"

It's possible this was the metaphorical use of "spoons" but it's the thought that counts!

@ct_bergstrom
Points deducted for 'literal' but OK

@kristinHenry
What "absolute no commercial posts at all" attitude? I've never seen anyone say that.

@me
Hi I like the app but this is very frustrating. Some posts get cut off both right and left. I'm on a iPhone 8.
