incredible. I was impressed with getting Castle Kellmore and various kart games on there, but this is amazing.

why would Jack Healy write "Democrats argued..." as if this were a court proceeding when the whole point of the story is that there WON'T be a court proceeding?

this 99% centralized network already complies with fascists in the US and elsewhere and will continue to do so; those who object are informed that they are not paying and ignored or banned

agree with you in many cases these days, but in this one, as the piece of paper does nothing, there is nothing to enforce? CO AG says she stays in prison.
President Trump has no constitutional power to issue a pardon of Tina Peters, as I discussed on @kylec.bsky.social. She is in Colorado state prison because she was convicted by a jury of her peers. I will continue to defend the rule of law and protect Colorado.

there isn't an ideology-free PDS and that includes bsky infra. one. there isn't ideology-free moderation and *that also* includes bsky infra.

It's crazy that you can connect to an independent PDS's firehose (Blacksky) and see this level of traffic 🙂 (this is less than a minute):

IIRC one on his conversion to Orthodox Christianity and one on giving up the environmental movement... not that they were super repellent, but they just seemed to amount to a statement that he had nothing remaining to say to me

I remember hearing about this guy's fiction and bookmarking it for a try. Then I read a couple of his essays that I bumped into and took him back off the list

I love Wodehouse's plots and the way he created one enormous continuity, but sometimes there's just this sparkling, fractal, cockeyed quality to his writing. especially Bertie narrating. both a snort-laugh and an appreciation of its strange brilliance.

‘You should have told her to go and boil her head.’
‘I couldn’t.’
‘Why couldn’t you?’
‘Not preux.’
‘Not what?’
‘Preux. P for potted meat, r for rissole, e for egg nog, and so on. You’ve heard of a preux chevalier? It is my aim to be one.’

I was re-reading Aunts Aren't Gentlemen earlier and noticed this bit for the first time, Bertie explaining why he's engaged again:
‘I proposed to her a year ago, and she turned me down, and just now she blew in and said she had changed her mind and would marry me. Came as a nasty shock.’

this rules. I was wondering about exactly this kind of thing. the only data I had to go on was blue.mackuba.eu/directory/pd... which is perfect for what it is but not answering the same question

> Bluesky must publicly justify safety measures
They have _explained_ the safety measures in question by pointing at their goal: less NCII on this network. An excellent goal. But I don't think they have _justified_ it, that would involve a public acknowledgement and evaluation of method, tradeoffs

Wodehouse every time. and I particularly admire the way he will fill a character's place in the plot with an understudy whenever they have moved on in the continuity
