Phil Lewis (@phillewis.bsky.social):
MMA fighter Ronda Rousey has apologized for spreading the Sandy Hook conspiracy:
"To anyone else that's fallen down the black hole of bullshit. It doesn't make you edgy, or an independent thinker, you're not doing your due diligence entertaining every possibility by digesting these conspiracies."
Habanero Deep Dish (@underwearbeach.bsky.social):
Good apology. When people claim that the cancel culture hordes will accept nothing but total annihilation for the slightest infraction, they are wrong. People just want this. Contrition and apology that accords to the magnitude of the offense.
Noah Brand (@noahbrand.bsky.social):
I mean, there's a dozen people in this thread alone who aren't accepting anything but total annihilation, so you're not entirely right.
But there are also those like you, so you're definitely not entirely wrong.
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
Hurt people hurt people. But I can personally guarantee to you that 99% of the population of the world — including most of the people who are survivors of the Sandy Hook shooting — are just fine with this apology. It's more than most jerks will ever say, even with $$$$$$$ on the line.

Hot take about geography:
we should rotate latitude and longitude to be on the same angle as these time zones.
Natanael, Tech janitor (@natanael.bsky.social):
But it should be discrete along S2 cells

oh this is an even more cursed hot take, yes good.

post malone ergo propter malone (@proptermalone.bsky.social):
is there conventional wisdom that's emerged on why Bluesky engagement per follower is so much higher than on Twitter?
it's really striking and my sense is that it holds ~true at essentially any follower count.
post malone ergo propter malone (@proptermalone.bsky.social):
this seems like a plausible effect to me if we think that tweets read per user doesn't vary much with ads/other garbage (so that a user who reads 100 tweets/day will read 100 here and 75+25 ads on Twitter)
post malone ergo propter malone (@proptermalone.bsky.social):
less dormant cruft accounts also makes sense intuitively but this one should be easier to get metrics on
post malone ergo propter malone (@proptermalone.bsky.social):
this is interesting, I think it's true that the place the Twitter experience degraded most is in the replies
post malone ergo propter malone (@proptermalone.bsky.social):
various people have suggested that people are nicer here. I'm not sure I believe that, I get it worse here sometimes than I ever did on Twitter, but maybe strong block helps?
Amy Hoy @ XOXOfest (@amyhoy.bsky.social):
i also get worse here than ever on twitter
but! not as bad as mastodon
urban tree canopy (@insavga.bsky.social):
Curious what you all mean by "worse." Numbers? Vitriol? Some other aspect? I thought swarming was so much worse on twitter but I've only been a low follower/engagement account here or there.
Amy Hoy @ XOXOfest (@amyhoy.bsky.social):
swarming, there are people on here who have groomercords to decide which person to attack.
i never got a death threat on twitter and i had nearly 30k followers there
Amy Hoy @ XOXOfest (@amyhoy.bsky.social):
i've also been added to a lot of totally unhinged lists like "nazi" "genocide apologist" etc which are absolutely untrue (and "furry/porn" which is hilariously untrue)
never had that happen on twitter either
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
Yeah, the people running the "genocide apologist" lists are an extremely paranoid ukranian who listed almost everyone who followed someone who made a joke about a Russian model jet plane, and someone who lists everyone who doesn't put a palestinian flag in their profile
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
One is understandable, two is easily ignorable because lists are only as good as getting other people to use them, and "doesn't join a protest the way the organiser wants" is not a problem many people share in common with the maintainer

I... don't understand why this complaint is against RealPage, rather than the landlords themselves?
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
Maybe, fewer people to subpoena and get on the record?
Less opportunity for "we fired leasing agent / mid level IT manager as soon as we found out, this was never our intention, this broke our employee handbook, we regret the error without accepting liability"

Micah (@rincewind.run):
it's pretty clear the Trump folks were hoping for a full throated RFK endorsement in order to step on Harris' convention momentum and shift the narrative back in his favor
I am not sure what this is, exactly, but it is… not that
Dr. Jimbosaur, Esq. (@jimbosaur.bsky.social):
It looks like he's dropping out in states where polling showed him pulling votes from Trump and trying to stay in where polling showed him pulling from Harris, which... I get the idea, but it feels too-clever by WAY more than half.
Melissa (@carbonorchestra.bsky.social):
Can Harris contest this strategy if/once it becomes clear that he's selectively removing himself?
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
It would be smarter if they didn't stoop. Contesting it sends the message that they believe any votes RFK jr might draw would be ideologically aligned with Democratic values & enough to throw the election. Let the FEC deal with him
Schrödinger the ᓚᘏᗢ (@iamschrodinger.bsky.social):
I dont think RFK Jr. is at all aligned with democratic values, but has name recognition from a family that does. I expect as we get closer to the election and people start really paying attention his vote share will plummet even where he stays in.
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
My prayer is for a landslide, the GOP Trump MAGA gets BTFO, and reforms eliminate the corruption
Let it begin

today in "gender critical feminism": if you're a butch who occasionally femmes it up you're gonna need a dna test for that
Roysterini (@roysterini.bsky.social):
Does she EVER post something uplifting? Or is she only happy when tearing someone down?
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
One Bold Assumption that she is capable of happiness.
If I had the level of wealth she had, I would be hosting folk faires & traveling to follow cool weather, weaving & sewing, auctioning blankets for charities & every evening a Cèilidh.
Roysterini (@roysterini.bsky.social):
Indeed. I think the only way to truly be happy with such wealth is to do good. I'd like to think she is capable of happiness, but it really seems she in a dark place. A self-perpetuated misery.
It's sad to see, but there's no excuse for the misery she inflicts on others and then playing the victim.

BREAKING: The full list of investors in X Corp has been unsealed. See them for yourselves. Some investors Include ownership stakes from Saudi Arabia and a slew of VC funds like Andreesen Horowitz and Bill Ackman's Pershing Square Foundation. A weird inclusion is P Diddy.
Red Martian Lenin (@kevlarunicorn.bsky.social):
I hope the whole darn thing comes crashing down. I want Elon Musk to sit in the ruins of what he once had, weeping, because he's got nothing and no one wants him, not even his own daughter whom he ostracized and lied about, and I want it to hurt him until he's inconsolable.
Frick Elon Musk.
Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):
He owes substantial sums of money to the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. He doesn't have the luxury of sitting anywhere. He will be on the hustle or on the run for the rest of his life
Red Martian Lenin (@kevlarunicorn.bsky.social):
I like that even better.
