Bluesky an' clear: the social media app that will definitely last forever

blimey, now albini is moving in on the parachuting baby chaos.
was a weird 5 mins when i woke up and checked my bluesky app this morning to say the least.

Roffle.

wait is the baby parachute thing really based on a quora question? like that's some content starvation stuff

yeah and apparently its a series

the wording is a bit unclear but it appears to be asking if you would it a home run with a christian baby or just a sac fly

these are the dumbest things and I really wanna expound at great length on how poisoned the view of God they propose is. the "for money" one is a no-brainer and so's the other one. God's omniscient. he knows you renounced Jesus because the baby made you do it to save both of your lives, He's not mad because He's not a child. Godalfuckinmighty this shit chafes me. I did what I had to do and when the kid grew up he apologized, we're square now.

those aren't the baseball words, I'm reasonably confident

Supposedly the original poster of these and similar nonsense is a really vicious and hateful troll, which sounds about right, sadly.

Lie to the baby to get it to pull the chute, then explain how this proves there is no God once safely on the ground.

id be like sure whatever you want skydiving talking baby ive never seen any shit like this before

smh why not try engaging the baby in rational debate

j/k, I don't negotiate with babies

j/k, I don't negotiate with babies

to be fair, most parents don't.

id be like sure whatever you want skydiving talking baby ive never seen any shit like this before

yeah this. oh wow mr. baby you just exploded the whole concept of reality and there's no way we're not living in a simulation now, sure, I renounce all gods high and low, I sing the body electric, what fuckin ever

I’d be all “how are things at E*TRADE these days”

"hello are you the boss baby"

quora's always been a trip to look at for different reasons but now there seems to be a whole lot of trolling

Yeah it’s jumped the baby shark

crazy idea

You'd think they'd prioritize some other stuff.

got my first bluesky like from an egirl bot today, its becoming a real app

ask a beginner question and get a reply from a legend of the field, the promises of twitter and its clones is still alive

This kind of happened to me recently, re: a Twin Peaks question someone idly asked (I looped in a podcast guy, who mentioned Mark Frost & Harley Peyton; then someone looped in both those guys, who are apparently on Bluesky; and Peyton addressed the question).

siick

what was the question

This was the original post in the thread

nice

They should work on letting you edit posts… after getting used to that function on Threads and Mastodon, not being able to do it kind of stinks!

do anyone want invite or have we hit ilx saturation

i have an invite! does your ilxmail work?

lol read that too quickly and thought you were looking for one, nvm

(i have the codes)

wasn't in the market but somehow gram came at me about how my friends want me on threads so baaad, so i joined that today. i might not come back, going to look for the threads thread now

Im on threads but my strategy is to only have one thread. I’ve been posting to myself for months on my one thread, and I don’t think it notifies anyone. This is a good thing! It’s a social media network so I understand how it uses an algorithm to try to make more interesting to others, and in my case it has quickly determined it can make any money off of me! It’s just like damn, no, threads hates you and that is probably right

oops, sorry, *can't make any money off of me

but of course,

** yes it can make money off of me anyway, but only a little bit

cute, lack of a head is kind of troubling tho

it's the colonel sanders bowtie and collar area

new bluesky app logo looks bad

oh that’s what lagoon posted abt

i keep tryna imagine the secret way it’s actually good and i def cannot. maybe making it blue like the burd will give somehow anal musk a stroke

I guess I don’t realize how much they were aping the Twitter look until I saw the new (iOS) app icon on my phone.

it's bad. i think the ceo likes butterflies?

Btw, the logo’s designer hinted today (…on Threads…) that a UI rehaul is also in the works.

lol

i have no issue with the butterfly?

BTW, media embeds (video, from youtube, critically) now work, I see

Finally got my invite today. Who is worth following on this app?

feel like the moby-dick bot has somehow gotten better on blueski?
