I wrote about the waning momentum of Bluesky, the challenges it faces to stay afloat while not compromising on its ethos, and the limitations of ideological synchronicity (even if they are of ideals I/others are aligned with) www.fastcompany.com/91528304/blu...
I feel like if workers have to take standardized personality and competency tests c-suite execs and other managers in charge of workers should take sociopathy tests
Shout out to brave workers pushing against AI - even when it means compromising their own good standings at the company. I understand having to play ball to stay fed on payroll. So it’s extra brave to compromise it to stay principled.
Hey psst your overlords need you to keep blaming yourself for why you’re not financially or vocationally where you think you need to be so you keep working harder and taking more personal responsibility (and off the responsibility of your overlords) hope this helps
Let’s not participate in the forced fusion of news and betting. It’s strange and completely unnecessary
Can I say. Among the out of touch hollywood gaggle who compulsively put their own image and likeness and needs first above all else I've been so heartened to hear from big names like Mark Ruffalo and Kristen Stewart about preserving the actual virtues of the arts and film-making and writing
Because beyond the other artists entangled in controversy that makes untangling our likeness for their art and the person making it impossible, he was truly a "genius" and visionary at the time. and arguably still is!!!!! at least about production. it makes it so much harder
Kanye and his music used to stoke so much realness and creative inspiration. I can't believe he has single-handedly and systemically sabotaged his artistry, legacy, and his day one fans. College dropout changed so many things internally for people. It's so sad and frustrating.
I ranted about how we've all become assholes online (free-writing, didn't edit or care about punctuation sorry) tanyatmoneychen.substack.com/p/we-live-am...
Have we verified the sales and numbers surrounding the reports of alix earle’s skincare debut? I ask only because the kardashians have normalized inflating figures to build hype and reputation

This is a smart observation by @tanyachen.bsky.social, and worth paying attention to since entertainment press is usually at the bleeding edge of these things
I've only known Mr. Nice for two minutes but if anything happens to him I will kill everyone in this tiny city and then myself.
This man is building a whole tiny city for his cats, and honestly I think we should give him a shot at the real thing.
Sorry y’all I’m not double duty tweeting you will have to find my other bangers on the og cursed platform

perhaps the most tragic thing about looking around the new webscape in our year 2026 is knowing the very habits and cultures started by young internet creatives are now being eroded by shill-slop-flexing-sameness. and early internet adopters are burnt out and fleeing the web
I think the most dangerous lie women were once sold but we continue to uphold is that if we learned how to control and chisel our bodies that it could lead to ultimate salvation
AI will show the flaws of capitalism, even as capitalists are blindly pushing AI. When workers are replaced to continue to pinch margins, there will be not circulated income to rouse the economy. Money hungry efficiency flawed oggresses are helping in the collapse of capitalism
I love my online friends, forktoasteroven69 and hottiethottiebrokebloke. Excellent theologians, both of them
I do think britney's "downfall" (mistreatment on a systemic level) - and the way people diminish addison rae, right now, for example - has to do with people hating and exploiting innocence, specifically feminine innocence or sweetness. when it should have been/should be protected
We need a referendum on what “American values” are in this country. That my immigrant parents, and maybe yours, once so believed in. And risked everything to be a part of.
The fact that our tax dollars are not funding health care supplemental initiatives, or preservation of our parks, or to improve public schools for YOUR CHILDREN. but to ICE and its detention centers that sound like modern torture experiments.
What AI should not replace (otherwise u are not a reporter and will never learn!!!)-
Active newsgathering, factchecking, and w human experts
Writing
Talking/interviewing
The distinctive human qualities and instincts that have led us down this career in the first place da fuk
Maybe even, idk just trying to be productive with the AI conversation, giving research and reporting tips if you feel stuck
What AI can help reporters with (responsibly)-
Giving a very general but good top-down summary of a source or subj matter. That should be fact checked. But it helps scour and pull info from across the web, cool
Transcribing long interviews. This does save us hours, days even
giving Clavicular press and biz opportunities just proves to his real young men followers (many of them in and upholding the alt right pipeline) ALL of their harmful ideals about looksmaxxxing and why they are perennially victimized and they should be entitled to the same - great
