One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.

Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control
The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

It’s crazy that a YouTuber vs. a 58-year-old is the event of the year for the sport.
There are sports that only anthropologists know about that are less dead than professional boxing, my goodness

I love Bo Nix. Think he’s the real deal in all the ways that matter
Bo Nix standing up for his Broncos teammate, Alex Forsyth. This is leadership. This is the good stuff. The Broncos are really building something here.

Used to be able to export an .xml file from Twitter and cross reference emails or at least a script to identify usernames. This is slightly harder without a desktop client.

First impressions of Bluesky:

-Looks and feels pretty much like twitter; I like how they do the feeds.

-Feels a little empty. Not the best place for news or sports yet, hoping that will come as more people join.

-It’s not filled to the brim with racists, sexists, transphobes and overall bigotry

Hi to all the new folks. It's better over here, by far.

But we need more stupid sports discourse (and other kinds too, I guess). Please, if you're able, help us out. Besides, sports is basically the toy section of life right now and we need all the low-stakes silliness we can get

To keep my brain from exploding today, here are some remarkable new deep-space images from JWST.

First up, a celestial smash-up. JWST's infrared eyes reveal cold dust that forms the "skeleton" of these colliding galaxies, known as IC 2163 and NGC 2207. 🧪
