I really enjoyed learning about Susan Kare in the most recent episode of (There are No Girls on the Internet) @tangoti.bsky.social

Thank you for flagging it! Definitely interesting. Also enraging. Good on them for unionizing, those sound like absurd employment conditions

Thanks so much!

Elon's Grok Sexualized Renee Good’s Dead Body — And He's Laughing About It Podcast Episode · There Are No Girls on the Internet · 01/10/2026 · 58m

One of my favorite podcasts about tech @tangoti.bsky.social has a banger about the AI sexual abuse material on Twitter.

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

AI-generated content deceives people, even when clearly labeled.

@bridgettodd.bsky.social, host of @tangoti.bsky.social, explains that labeling content as AI isn’t working, and why projects like @divine.video are promising no AI content.

Full episode out now.

Great episode of @tangoti.bsky.social recently about the emerging info that women are less likely to use gen AI and some reasons why. Highly recommend!

Elon Musk’s X Is A Misinformation Machine—And Black Women Saw It Coming | Essence For years, Black women have sounded the alarm about digital manipulation. X’s new policies prove how right they were.

Congrats @bridgettodd.bsky.social for getting this timely op-ed published in Essence Magazine: www.essence.com/news/money-c...

So glad to hear it! We're excited about the episode coming out tomorrow, looking into the report about bots influencing the Taylor Swift conversation.

Thanks for helping spread the show! ❤️

There Are No Girls On The Internet did a great episode featuring a Black woman game creator who was to be featured in Target (prior to their reinvention). They basically made this lady jump through tons of hoops and then never even featured her product on the shelf. @tangoti.bsky.social

Elon Musk Insists He Does Read After Joyce Carol Oates Twitter Beef Podcast Episode · There Are No Girls on the Internet · 11/14/2025 · 53m

Enjoyed this episode (@bridgettodd.bsky.social) on the Joyce Carol Oates-Elon Musk beef.

I lol'd at comparing JCO & Azealia Banks: two good artists with mostly terrible takes but "when they stumble upon a truth, they really hit that truth and they do not miss."

Wendy Osefo was her own snitch; Ring Cam is the police YouTube video by There Are No Girls On The Internet w/ Bridget Todd

Ring Cam IS the police. Wendy Osefo, from Real Housewives of Potomac, just got charged with fraud. Evidence included footage from her own Ring Cam. Ring readily gives access to police without a warrant and without your consent. Do you really want that in your house?
