Paperback Paradise @paperbackparadise.bsky.social · 3h

Photo of a vintage book cover featuring Dracula dropping gold coins onto his pile of gold coins, he’s smiling as he clearly is a greedy individual. A full skeleton lays on the pile of gold, perhaps it is one of his girlfriends. A naked woman looms in the background for some reason. Copy and title read:

HOW DID DRACULA GET RICH?

Selling Frankenstein’s Feet Pix Online
By Herman Baldsack

Dracula made a fortune off of Frankenstein's feet without his permission and he is a disgusting piece of garbage for that

The CEO of Bsky refused to address the bad moderation on here, said people asking for the ban of a transphobe is ”bullying", and now she and other prominent Bsky decision-makers are following anti-trans accounts. Seems clear where they stand.

The COO of bluesky, Rose, is following the heritage foundation account on bluesky.

Soyweiser @soyweiser.bsky.social · 14h

She is the COO en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_o... of bsky. This is worrying because after the 'we are turning waffles into an anti-trans thing' by the CEO the CEO started to follow a transphobe. Shows a pattern.

Wonder when we find out one of them follows the discovery institute.

-equal rights

-equal opportunity

-equal access to healthcare

Dealing with all my recent life misfortunes and trauma by posting through it like Jay Graber tiptoeing around addressing the bad ethics of Bsky's moderation team.

Good read. Very detailed and researched with all the linked sources! Do better, Bsky team.

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.

Easily the stupidest thing I’ve read all day.

What lies beneath the bullshit is that the AI push is about concentrating wealth into the hands of five tech companies. People aren’t part of the equation.

ANDREESSEN: Even if AI ends up destroying all the jobs, “the result would be hyper-deflation of prices, which is the thing that people miss. .. Things that today cost a lot of money will all of a sudden be cheap or free.”

have been desperately looking for this old erotic Spanish comic I stumbled on almost 10 years ago called "El secreto de Frankenstein" and I'm so happy to report I finally found it

black & white comic panel depicting a sexy, thicc Frankenstein's monster disrobing in 3 different poses - pulling his shirt of his shoulder, seen at an angle; from the front, shirtless, beginning to take his pants off; then almost totally nude as seen from behind. the words at the top read "Strip-tease de Frankenstein..."

Two updates. I don't know how many more I will have to make.

If I'm eventually banned, you'll know why.

Excerpt from article:

Update: It has since emerged that the community builder’s account has not only been permabanned from Bluesky, but also blocked from WhiteWind, Skylight, Bluescreen, Flashes, and “basically all ATproto apps/projects.” This effectively negates the very premise of the AT Protocol’s federated model.

Second update: A Jewish science journalist has now been suspended after publicly criticizing Bluesky’s CEO. A months-old skeet condemning Christian Zionism was presented as justfication, but this is clearly manufactured pretext.

At this point, all pretense is gone. This is outright retaliation by Bluesky’s leadership against any who dare criticize it.

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.
