Those new to Bsky need to be made aware of one of the greatest skeets ever, deleted long before its time.

It's worth reading the whole interview in full. It basically verifies that the NYT has spent the past decade-plus doubling down on top-down narratives for coverage, getting more intense over time.

Sulzberg personally picked & chose whom the news apparatus would target and whom it would kiss up to.
In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

My YouTube shorts got 662,000 views last year and the ad revenue from them was $140 lol
A couple of Youtubers I watch have done videos now about how their views are way down, and how Youtube is prioritizing short form, clickbait titles/thumbnails, and "videos that start in the midst of the action" and *my god* all I hate all three of these.

This is the opposite of what I like.

shorts make no money and generate no real channel growth but everyone feels like they gotta make 'em anyway. You don't! It's fine!

Last art of the year! Made this in honor of @eyepatchwolf.bsky.social 's croissant speech. Impostor syndrome is real, no matter how big you get.

Give yourself something to look forward to next year. Something less substantial than a resolution which can carry regret if you can't stick to it. Think of a book you want to read, a genre of music you'd like to learn more about, a curiosity to chase no matter how trivial. Keep your spark lit.

It’s not “booming markets” so much as exploding prices and shrinking value. It’s railroading normal people into paying more for less, to increasingly unsurvivable rates.

The markets these fuckers peddle is a scam and billionaires are thieves.
"What a year for the ultra wealthy. The world’s 500 richest people added a record $2.2 trillion to their collective fortunes in 2025’s… booming markets, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. And about a quarter of this year’s gains went to just eight billionaires.” — Bloomberg Morning Brief

Sitting a stewing in frustration isn't nearly as cathartic as just designing a poster. Let's see how often I remember that in 2026.

This is exactly how my cousin justified her use of it and accepting a death of a thousand cuts even when those cuts are slow and spread out drives me crazy

“Well its just for this little thing” soon blossoms into “well its just for—“ for everything
Slowly realizing even my political friends who say they hate AI are using it to speed up tasks like email writing, formatting grant applications etc

Just having witnessed Episode 2 after the already strong Episode 1. I can't wait for Episode 3.
Looking forward to it in the new year with patience!
Your most anticipated game of 2026 (probably, right?) is now available for wishlisting on Steam.

Head over to the store page for the Episode 3 DLC and wishlist it to let the world know you're joining the satanic panic on the side OF THE DEVIL.
