Time traveller from the past that speaks Latin picks up a current science book and just can. Not. Stop. Laughing.

Important note - it's not about how fast you respond to things, it's about who you target.

Fair and equitable enforcement that is just slow would get a different response from your users.

Right now, we’re a small team with a growing backlog. The slower we get, the more people wonder why decisions aren’t being made in real time — but with human review and millions of posts, that’s simply not possible. 3/9

Jay from bluesky also can't believe it's not butter, because a marginalized person told her and she just couldn't hear it.

Of course, Juno. It's really infuriating to see the mods take such a hard right turn. This was supposed to be a place we could all post our silly little posts and make friends.

I've been following you for a while now and I appreciate everything you're doing.

*hands mic to @jay.bsky.team*

(...this is the part where you tell us all how you're going to make it right.)

i think it is fair to request a statement from @jay.bsky.team on TRANS PEOPLE and where we fit in on @bsky.app.

i think as a transgender journalist, it's acceptable and makes sense for me to ask this

and so, the question, am i not a person as a trans girl and do i not deserve to feel safe here?

IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE ME AT MY WORST THEN I'M SORRY THAT MY BEHAVIOR CAUSED YOU DISTRESS, I WILL REFLECT ON THE IMPACT MY ACTIONS HAVE ON OTHERS AND TRY TO IMPROVE MYSELF.

THANK YOU FOR BEING MY FRIEND.

"it might be conscious but unable to express it! You can't know."
O-kay... That sounds like you are trying to argue for existence of a soul. Why have you never argued this for animals or other objects that didn't have multibillion dollar marketing campaigns?

Okay, how do we get you to be decent people then?

I just want to make silly little posts with my Black and trans friends and you've ruined that. How should we get you to stop doing that?

I like that there is an upper limit to that scale. The movie is 1hr 42m long so with tiny breaks you could manage this up to 13 times.

You're at a 2 of 13 on the Frozen horrors scale.

(I kid, but that still sounds rough. I hope you find some peace.)

Glenn @coffeeandpi.bsky.social · 7d

That's why they cost more now. They're not allowed to kill anyone so as a penalty they charge more.

Glenn @coffeeandpi.bsky.social · 7d

I basically memorized that movie when I was a kid. Absolute classic!

When do we get to vote for the specific Democrats the Republicans are talking about? They sound cool.

Because I look at the current lineup and I have to think he's talking about someone else.

I was so mad for a minute there.

Thank you for actually linking an explanation.

Glenn @coffeeandpi.bsky.social · 7d

He absolutely carries that show.

Glenn @coffeeandpi.bsky.social · 9d

Oh man this is the *perfect* choice to carry that torch.

Congratulations, Mychal! You're amazing.

Sometimes the story writes itself, it just uses your hands to punch the keys.
