The badges I ordered from @henrieke.bsky.social have arrived! They're going to look so good on my bags 🤗
Now I just need to decide where I'll put the stickers 😄

Oh, and thank you for the adorable drawing on the envelope, Henrieke! So cute 😊

Four colourful badges (a black cat, a pigeon, an otter and a mouse) and three stickers (a glow-in-the-dark bat, a chonky cat and a glittery pigeon) lying on a wooden table.

People spent too much time trying to maximize time spent, profit, advertising that the actual point of social media - to talk to other people - became an afterthought.

Chu @toochu4skool.bsky.social · 1d

And by “so is media” I meant social media. I am tired.

Chu @toochu4skool.bsky.social · 1d

It makes me sad to see how much so is media and fandom spaces have deteriorated over time. The Internet used to bring me such joy and escapism. Now it’s just…dreck.

i think what defines bluesky is your ability to craft the tone and content of the conversations you want to have, it’s like real facilitation

aside from blocking, you have:
- detach quote
- hide reply

that surely is hampering engagement, strictly speaking, but it significantly raises the quality

Sums it up nicely. Every time I see some "proship dni" in someone's bio I sigh heavily because most the time it doesn't mean anything at all.

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

You can, in fact, make an edit of Succession to every song on Taylor Swift’s new album.

The Enemies-to-Lovers fan vids have received new life, thanks to Taylor Swift’s “Actually Romantic.”

Jose Carioca stands in front of a red billboard where Superstar Donald Duck is in his Anna Persona. He is wearing a red dress, make up with red hues, long blonde hair, a feather scarf and a wide brimmed black hat. It says, "Scene 14 It's like burning" at the very right.

And sometimes…it’s okay to admit that Internet chatter doesn’t always know what’s best. They got what they wanted.

Chu @toochu4skool.bsky.social · 8d

I am overall neutral on Swift (my sister is a huge Swiftie) but I always thought Reputation was Taylor’s weakest album. And TLOASG feels like it was cut from the same cloth. In fairness, it *was* what the critics & fans were begging for after TTPD.

The new Taylor Swift album sounds like she’s trolling the fans who were desperately begging for Reputation TV.

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

If there's no way to make bully-proof art, you might as well make whatever you want and build community with the people who support the same thing. We're safer together as a coalition. Don't do these people's work for them by censoring and isolating yourself in advance.
