When dealing with me, please always be kind rather than nice.

Leadership protip:
Sometimes being Kind is orthogonal to being Nice.

Being Kind is giving painful but necessary feedback to help someone correct a potentially detrimental behavior or habit.

Being Nice is avoiding giving feedback to avoid hurting their feelings.

I somehow enjoy the different style and quality of each of the items. It feels almost intented, artistic.

Germans appreciate good impro theater.
Also Germans: "Ja... und?"

Sorry, not following you. I was referring to the usage of the One Piece symbols by the various demonstrations across the world. I don't imagine they would need or want Thiel's madman approval of One Piece, but haven't had a chance to ask.
There are better RPGs than D&D but that's another topic.

The easiest way to destroy symbolism is to adopt it for one's own purposes

Men, if you haven't talked to a gay man about his feelings for you, you're missing a valuable insight into women's experiences with men like you who are attracted to them

AI slop or manual photoshopping?

Next time a man says "guys" is gender neutral, ask them how many guys they have dated and see how they react

AliaVoid @aliavoid.bsky.social · 1d

I'm gonna start using "girl" as gender neutral, same way as people use bro/dude as gender neutral and see how many ppl get mad

It wasn't from any single post. Another account reused one of the photos almost simultaneously, another the same kind of structure of text, with also 4 photos of the same city. Another reused a whole sentence. And the Newskies feed in itself helps, by revealing the timing. #bots #clankers

If you have gotten out of the practice of reading fiction, there is hardly any softer, more fascinating way of starting again than playing through some of the entries of IFcomp

It's the weekend! It's also the FINAL WEEKEND before IFComp 2025 wraps! Remember to get those final votes in. Also, if you are in a position to do so and have not yet contributed to this year's Colossal Fund, we're just a bit short of our stretch goal. Thank you! Have fun!

An example of the amount of careful design we can expect from these things. Like, incase of questions reply to this mail that came from a no-reply address.

Fathom, sending from a no-reply address, is asking if one agrees to be recorded, and telling to reply them for any questions

No, se tarve vähenee huomattavasti sitten kun tekoälyturvajoukot ovat jokaisen tarpeeksi rikkaan ostettavissa. Aika muutokseen on nyt.

Mieluummin näkisin lausuntoja kuten "Jos lentokenttä ei kannata, sitä ei pidä pyörittää verorahoilla" tai "Jos turkistarha ei kannata, sitä ei pidä pyörittää verorahoilla"

Kun tosiasia on, että meidän kieli on niin pienen porukan, että ilman julkisen vipuvartta voidaan heittää hyvästi kulttuurille

Mielipide se on tietysti tämäkin.

En vaan ymmärrä, miten kukaan suomalaisen koulujärjestelmän läpäissyt voi uskoa, että tämmöisiä mielipiteitä laukovat, suomalaista kulttuuria ihan pikkumaisuuttaan kostoksi tuhoavat olisivat jotenkin suomalaisen kulttuurin, elämäntavan ja suomalaisuuden puolella.

Kuvakaappaus Kaisa Garedewin (kansanedustaja, Perussuomalaiset) some-viestistä 2025:

”Jos kulttuuri ei kannata,
sitä ei pidä pyörittää verorahoillakaan.

Nykykulttuuri markkinaehtoiseksi.”

Maybe the rest of it was also AI

Lynoure Braakman @lynoure.bsky.social · 2d

When AI slop separates us into minibubbles with hardly human reach, the secular people need to have found a way to find people and build trust and co-operation.
Any congregation already has a physical place to meet and a regular schedule for connecting with each other.
