People Are People, or Why I Don't Want to Be a Landlord

There’s a dustup going on over at Bluesky over moderation decisions. I won’t go into details because—for the purposes of this blog post—I’m less focused on why the dustup is happening and more that it is happening. It’s happening at Bluesky, it happens on Mastodon, it happened on Tumblr, and it will keep happening in the future despite all the best intentions. And I need to stop fooling myself that I want any part of it.

Pixel Piranhas

I really hate it when I’m exposed to some horrible news online, and feel powerless. There is nothing I can do, I am not responsible, and yet at the same time I have this feeling “this shouldn’t be happening”. There is a temptation to immediately react – if it was printed, I would crumple up the paper and throw it away – yet, reading pixels on the screen I don’t have the right gesture to express my discontent. So I made this little browser extension. Click on a button, and a horde of cursors, like hungry piranhas, will slowly rip the web page apart for you. Sounds fun? Install on Firefox or Chrome.
