Soooooo cool that all of my group texts are broken because Google and Apple can't get their shit together with RCS.

But what if he was there but the van broke before he could get close enough to see the thing that would make it red? Then he wouldn't see either thing.

I need to get back into coffee now that my porch isn't a pigeon poop wasteland. For Porch Coffee.

God being off Twitter for so long made me forget how petty stormchasers are about supposed "content theft".

Inject the comment section directly into my veins.

Unfortunately past effort and serotonin are far more important than having good values for some people.

3 years since a Nazi bought Twitter and 1 year since that purchase helped elect Trump. That's enough time to realize that posting on Bluesky is better than posting on Twitter, even if it means a temporary (or even permanent) hit to total engagement numbers.

Idk if I've ever known anyone personally who started a business and didn't eventually turn into an absolute menace because of it.

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 7d

Ok cool. I wasn't even commenting on you specifically yet you still presumptively went after my throat.

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 7d

I've never been on SM for engagement reasons, personal or business, so I'm guessing that's probably why I don't understand how Bsky is worse than the other platforms in that regard. Jesus fuck.....

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 7d

I-

what?

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 7d

I still don't fully understand how it's any worse than like............Threads, Nazi Central, or AIbook. Instagram maybe. Then again **engagement** has never been my reason for existing on SM so I probably just don't get it.

Or maybe the flashmob is what's making the song insufferable.

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 10d

Why do flashmobs always pick the most insufferable songs

And not like "I'm secretly observing your brain and patterns" small talk, I think we had a whole 20min conversation about movies in the second session.
