Blocking weirdos is the one feature this app absolutely excels at. Two clicks & annoying strangers disappear forever. Unprecedented feeling.
I cannot stress enough that is some rando responds to something you reposted trying to draw you into a “but have you considered” discussion of it, they are not acting in good faith, and you just block. Please, embrace the blue sky way. block. block. block.

new video shows Kit Kat did not “dart underneath” the vehicle as waymo originally claimed. he was sitting under the car in front of the right wheel before it just ran him over. someone even approached the vehicle to try and get him to move seconds before it happened. missionlocal.org/2025/12/sf-w...

Everyone’s favorite company that absolutely would never use AI in any way because that would be bad is doing a big old collab with Duolingo this coming week and you’ll likely hear no protesting about that from the usual anti-AI crew who love this game

A problem I've solved by just being so good at everything, all my secret competitors have also secretly given up. No one has the emotional energy to take another L at my hands that I'm not even aware of. It's like getting upset you can't polevault as good as those guys at the Olympics.
If an acquaintance or family member has always been weird around you for seemingly know reason, there's a greater than 50% chance it's because they secretly perceive themselves as being in competition with you

The thing is, it's never been about fairness in sports. If it was:
- Michael Phelps would've been banned from the Olympics for literal biological advantages over EVERYONE
- Darts, Pool, Bowling, Chess, and E-Sports would never be separated by Gender at all

For some reason I have seen people discussing eugenics again (i think its because there is some designer baby company or whatever that is almost certainly a scam) and so its important to remind everyone of this: the problem with Eugenics isnt the violence of how its carried out, the idea at itself

Every blocklist I'm on is a personal favor to me. Cause you'd have to be some kinda asshat to put me on a blocklist or subscribe to one I'm on. So now I don't have to see any of those asshats.
The comments supporting this are funny.
“I never consented to this and I go out of my way to be open, inclusive and non-threatening.”
If you have to go out of your way, you belong on a blocklist.

The key to understanding capitalism is that dog treats have shapes like "steak" even though that means nothing to the dog. The target audience isn't the dog, but the human, and the goal of the product is not to satisfy the dog, but to make the human feel like a good dog owner.

Nvidia CEO says AI will actually make everyone a lot busier: 'Everybody's jobs will be different' | Fortune
“I would say that there's every evidence that we will be more productive and yet still be busier because we have so many ideas,” Jensen Huang said.

Prison life isn't necessarily what you expect. Would you have guessed that American prisons often rely on incarcerated members of the LGBTQ+ community for their administrative skills?

Wildlife tracking! I'm reposting things I made this past year. If you look closely at the deer tracks you'll see I added the hint that they're double registering (hind foot is stepping into the same spot as front foot).
