tl;dr: Bluesky began with genuine promise: a new social media platform where users could feel safer, but inconsistent moderation quickly eroded trust.

When systemically marginalized users pushed back, Bluesky’s leadership minimized concerns and began to target them for bans.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

So, idk if anyone else does this, but now and then I fo a "friend check in" where I will reach out to ppl I hadnt interacted with for a bit. Not to guilt them or anything, just see how life is going.

Rarerly I will get the 1 person who comes back with, "this better be impprtant"...

When calling your reps denanding they block/repeal age/ID laws, mentioning how many of these laws on fact BLOCK CSA victins from support is something you should do!

We can "think of the children" right back at them

Iwanko 🔞 STOP ALL porn bans! @rockywanker.bsky.social · Sep 25

To give you an idea of how much they "care" about protecting children online.

Out of all states that have approved an age/ID verification bill, none have exemptions for CSA victims to access support groups. MO only forces adult sites to show a helpline number.

(Source: Free Speech Coalition, GPB)

Map of the United States.
Colors for bill consequences:
In red: Risk of chilling effect, children may be blocked off CSA and self harm support groups.
In purple: Has limited mention for support networks, but no exemptions.

Colors for status:
In green: Bill blocked in this session.
In yellow: Pending.
In gray: No active bill in this session.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth

You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

perhaps the best way to intervene or counter-protest this vigil would be to play recordings of kirk's own voice saying heinous shit, as loud as you can, so that they're forced to hear it over whatever they're trying to do

US legislators are pushing harder to pass KOSA and repeal section 230.

Call your representatives ASAP and make your voice heard! Advocate for protecting section 230, and demand your reps oppose KOSA!

Bipartisan Push in Congress to Weaken Section 230, Expand Online Surveillance, and Increase Platform Liability

Calls for platform accountability came with few answers about who decides what speech is acceptable.
