Come back to twitter. We miss your voice and this place is a ghost town

I’m a bit of a swiftie dad (we don’t have access to TS concerts, so my daughter and I just sing out her songs together in the car). But what has this go to do with masculinity? Imagine if someone wrote women who take their sons to wrestling matches are a model for femininity. It’s just parental love

Gotta love that stupid “intolerance” tag slapped to your link, by someone who almost certainly didn’t read the article

Missed opportunity

I muted the words “Fascism” and “Fascist” in my RSS reader, and now @kottke.org is readable again

...and then she joined the crowd and vanished into them...

The Left's fixation on Fascism is like the Right's fixation on Wokeism: They treat it as an existential threat, while the other side barely acknowledges it exists.

Gruber, our friend, is no longer writing good things about us,

I’m disappointed in the lack of fight here on bsky. Seems this platform is dying and Elon’s is thriving.

You are free to say those words on Threads on X...

Burn books or encourage people not to read them? 🤔

Damn I clicked on your link thinking it’s something to do with USB C chargers in Europe.

The Story of Stent Today is my 17th re-birthday. If you’ve been a longtime reader, you know why I call it my re-birthday. If you are new around here, well, here is a short recap. Just after I turned 41—17 years ago—a…

@om.co when I opened my RSS reader this morning, I wasn't expecting to be treated to a history of Stents and their technological advancement as compared to iPhones... and AI! This was a joy to read, and I don't think anyone else could have written it... Thank you.

People have done this again and again, but in the end these projects always end up abandoned.

Some bloggers used to hate people who used tools like this.

Honestly, can you tell the difference ?

Sounds overstated to me. I for one (as someone who uses spotify for background work music) can't tell the difference and I don't care

Chalé stop making wahala for me. You de vex me

On Lebanon he says he doesn’t want to get involved with their internal affairs and wants a relationship of mutual respect, and has too much work to do in Syria to have time to get into other coutries’ business

In this interview with Saudi’s @aawsat_News , Al-Share3 (Joulani) sends all the right messages to the Arab Gulf:

So, Bluesky Has An Extortion Problem An apparent extortion scheme lit up Bluesky the other night. It raises some important questions about whether Bluesky is up to the task of moderation.

My take on this is that if you're moderately famous and don't own your namesake domain name, unless your name is really common, this is mostly on you...

I love Substack and I follow some great writers there. It's a free world. Are they Nazis? No. Are you free to take your business elsewhere? Of course. Casey Newton did it, so can anyone else.

Safari Reader mode. Always.

In truth, the links that are most shared on Blue Sky are still articles about ... Blue Sky

So much talk about links. But given any url, a search for it on X will return many more results than on Blue Sky, which still sometimes baffles me with zero results when I search for the url of controversial opinion pieces (canonical of course), regardless of the slant.
