So, fun fact. I have made four posts about Hasan Piker on Bluesky. Three of them are about how I got put on a Hasan-hater blocklist despite only ever posting about Hasan one time.

The one time? Someone was asking what evidence there was that he was a dog abuser. Having seen the video clip that was being passed around, I described it, said it wasn't exactly damning evidence, but that I could understand how some people might draw that conclusion.

After a few minutes of people angrily replying that I was wrong and that he wasn't a dog abuser - something I never claimed he was - and how dare I, I muted the thread.

I have barely seen any of his stuff - his style of commentary isn't for me - but I guess you have to either absolutely love him or absolutely hate him and you're not allowed to be like "Oh yeah that guy" about him?

Anyway, I've been on this stupid ride before, and it never ends well for anyone involved.

Here, I fixed that Mastodon meme. That's most of my bookmarks...

“When they talk about the mixed-race population in the U.S., they don’t include me there, they include me in the category of Hispanic. So the fact that I am native to the Americas gets lost.”

Labeled ‘Hispanic’

Lipan Apaches across Texas are challenging the myth that their tribe was wiped out.

Warning YouTube is now enabling their crappy AI auto dubbing bullshit automatically on your channel. You have to actively opt-out.

real shitposters only use lower case because we are anti-capitalism

#DnD Advice: Pay attention to what your players engage with the most in a game, and try to expand upon those elements.

If my players are to be believed, tabletop RPGs are an experiment to find the most paranoid way possible to open a closed door at the end of a hallway.

We’re getting to the point where as a tech company all you have to do is not be fascist or actively sabotage your own product with AI bullshit. You don’t even have to be good, you just have to not actively be bad
Okay, I've got my phone and laptop both connected to my masto, so tomorrow I start trying to use it. We'll see how it works. Hopefully more people I follow elsewhere migrate over the next few days...
