We’re going to become Brazil (the movie)

All the rights of personhood but none of the obligations.

And please don’t say they’re moving to bluesky. That’s just jumping out of the pot and into the flames.

So Finland is Stolland after all?

Someone make a cover of this.

How is this one country be bombing other countries with impunity, without international outrage or sanctions? What is the textbook definition of a declaration of war again?

I’m sad that a lot of people couldn’t perceive the mastodon in the room.

I see Twitter as a ship too big to maneuver. Then one day it got bought and a new captain comes aboard. He deliberately breaks the hull here and there to make the ship lighter and more agile. The ship’s taking on water faster now. He also painted over her name. Despite all this, the majority of souls on board would rather sink with the ship than jump overboard.

My guess is that this is going to go the same way as McDonalds v everything with the letters M(a)c, and Starbucks v Sattar Buksh

“I only watch trashy scumbag creators and not nice ones who actually struggles when engagements really fluctuates on a whim. I also have never been on the other side to emphatize with them.”

It’s like Reddit. If you only consume trash the algo gives you you’re not using it right.

I take supporting creators with engagements seriously.

This is coming out of my orifice but I think this also affects creators in that once people like myself know we’re shadow banned we will not be posting comments because, you know, what’s the point? And that is a deduction in engagement, and reductions in engagement affects the creators in visibility in equally vague ways (because opaque black box ML-AIs are driving both of these actions).

It wasn’t when the idiom was coined. Have you seen hard-bound books from the 19th century in libraries?
