Every week there’s some new fandom drama that brings the most unhinged takes to my timeline.

the militarizations of fandoms via social media is wild were not quite at the level of the blue and greens in byzantium but politicians arent above appealing to taylor swift fans or whatnot

when are they going to hijack the back button so when I press it after opening an image it closes the image instead of leaving the site.don't tell me to use the app.also q) how do I know I've switched to the 'discover' tab? a) furry cartoons all over my feed.

I guess the “bridge” thing with Mastodon worked… I’m seeing these “test” posts from accounts with these complex “.br.id.g” (or whatever) addendums.

amazing web site

Wow, you can "bridge" yr BS account to the Fediverse just by following a certain account? That's wild
― OG Rizzler (morrisp), Tuesday, 7 May 2024 21:29 (one month ago) link
I guess one caution seems to be that if you delete a BS post, it won't (yet) be deleted on the bridged ActivityPub account.

Jack Dorsey claims Bluesky is 'repeating all the mistakes' he made at Twitter
He prefers Nostr even though it’s “weird and hard to use.”

lmao
Dorsey also confirmed that he is financially backing Nostr, another decentralized Twitter-like service popular among some crypto enthusiasts and run by an anonymous founder.

A measure of how large Bluesky is vs how large people think it is: how many of us have Defense Contractor Discourse on their timeline today?

Not on my timeline

Yes, a little bit. I don't know what's going on there at all.

80% of my tl is ned reposts so yeah it’s in there, idk the context tho (I know some prick works at the genocide factory just don’t know which one)

I have a very narrowly curated followers list that's primarily focused on music / music writing, with a bit of local politics mixed in.
So what I can see this morning seems *completely* on-brand for BlueSky, in that I have a few posts that reference "The Discourse" and "The Bad Thing" without specifying what the fuck they're actually talking about, and then a couple of references to war profiteering and genocide without naming names.
So... looks like most any other morning on BlueSky to me.

who is the war profiteer
