Skywitches rhymed with skuwitchis 🫳🏻🫳🏻

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Reading the replies, it is clear that o CéuAzul é dos Brasileiros

Paul Frazee's Monster (@pfrazee.com):

Never get back with your eX

The Serfs (@theserfstv.bsky.social):

Who is this for? Republicans already call her a communist dictator and no progressive wants to work with people who call them groomers all day

Phil Lewis (@phillewis.bsky.social):

Kamala Harris on "The View": "I'm going to have a Republican in my cabinet … You ask me what's the biggest difference between Joe Biden and me, that would be one of the differences."

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Possibly one of the long-suffering Repubs who loath Ted Cruz / Trump in silence but are anticipating a party split between Republicans vs Anti-Government / Anti-Authority Violent Extremists making a "MAGA" or "Tea" Party, but who knows

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

This is where I'm finishing for the day.

I still can't get the synth patch I built specially for this piano, to cooperate with velocity, so this is "how it's supposed to sound", at least until I can get a patch to cooperate.

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

One week's work

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

I don't … understand why … it won't pick up the midi key velocity

Other patches i've made pick up midi key velocity

This one doesn't

Julie - TrexPushups (@trexpushups.bsky.social):

What would happen if someone did that?

(@thebarbedwire.bsky.social):

As Hurricane Milton bears down on Florida, one Texas mayor has a novel idea about how to deal with it: Nuke the darned thing.

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

It would make 10,000 more deaths over the span of the next 30 years from the radiation and probbaly 5,000 more in same time span from intensifying AGW contributing to stronger hurricanes snd tornadoes, a drop more

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Nukes don't stop weather events driven by entire ocean's worth of heat & humidity

Micah (@rincewind.run):

once again reinforcing the fact that the best online communities are the ones where there are mods with their heads screwed on straight who are willing to ban the shit-stirrers regardless of whether they have technically broken any rules

just, no, you're making it worse for everyone, bye

Phil Lewis (@phillewis.bsky.social):

A paper out of New York University on social media finds "0.1% of users shared 80% of fake news," and "74% of all online conflicts are started in just 1% of communities" www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Buttadeus (@thewanderingjew.bsky.social):

Yeah, this is honestly the ballgame. It's a private party, not the public square. Mods' goal is not to be fair, but to basically exercise editorial control.

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

One subreddit I run - for my hometown - has one rule:

"Be Excellent To Each Other. Don't Be a Jerk".

It covers 100% of all the toxic behaviour, and is entirely fair.

All the pages and pages and pages of broken-out rules exist because some people think i.e. being a bigot is excellent

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

90% of countering toxicity is having someone who sees it and responds to it promptly with "Nope, that's not allowed here" - setting boundaries. 10% is paperwork on the ones that don't listen.

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

They can lose DMCA Safe Harbour for copyright violations if they don't respond to DMCA takedown affidavits in a timely manner.

They will only have to send a motion to dismiss if sued for NCMI.

That has to change

Joseph Cox (@josephcox.bsky.social):

Good news: Twitter will remove nonconsensual nudity pretty quick!

Bad news: only if it's reported as a copyright violation, not as nonconsensual intimate media

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

"Favourite" doing a lot of heavy lifting here, in the sense of "the most necessary and probably the most important"

Arnold Schwarzenegger has a powerful message for those who have gone down a path of hate.

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

If a social media platform has rules that prohibit violent threats & hate speech, it also successfully scrapes off covid denialism, flat earthers, climate denialism, and a bunch of other useless junk, because the venn circles covering all those is highly correlate

Gwen Snyder is undead (@gwensnyder.bsky.social):

It's hard to overstate how fricking LIT UP IN ECSTASY the white supremacist Telegram channels I used to monitor were when COVID hit.

These folks have been spinning out their black swan disaster event fantasies for so long and they were so psyched to finally see one hit and spark the race war finally

Ms. Penny 🌅🧙♀️ Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Their entire philosophy is Chaos Is A Ladder
