Bard spotting on Bluesky 07 November 2024

Bree (Veilguard Era) (@mostlybree.kitrocha.com):

do it because they hate it.

there is nothing in the world you could say to them, no zinger sharp enough, no dunk wild enough, that it would upset them as much as seeing that block hit them in the face.

John Scalzi (@scalzi.com):

Also, new folks, please know that when it comes to trolls, jerks, chuds and other undesirables here in the sky, we subscribe to the idea of "Don't Engage, Just Block." The block function is superpowered and expunges them entirely from your timeline. They hate it! Block with wild abandon! Don't wait!

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

When Reddit set up proper blocking, one of the ringleaders of a long running harassment & manipulation group that had plagued the site for over a decade,

Went on an extended "we are fricked" villain monologue. Full meltdown.

The group left reddit shortly after & moved offsite.

What is the lemonade that kills you?

lydy (@los7.bsky.social):

uh panera put a very high dose of caffiene in a drink that got unlimited refils but didnt label it as caffeinated & 2 people with heart conditions died

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Unless you are a trained sayyadiina among our people, and in the rite of ashketche, you transmute the lemonade of death into the lemonade of life

lydy (@los7.bsky.social):

of course

¿Me recomendáis feeds a los que seguir? Estoy un poco perdida con bluesky, la verdad 😅

Por otra parte, me siento más segura por aquí. Intentaré ser mi yo blandito más a menudo, que en Twitter no se ve mucho, pero en el fondo soy cuqui😅

Isabel Mellén (@isamellen.bsky.social):

¡Bienvenida! Yo llevo por aquí como un año y todavía no me aclaro con los feeds. 🤣🤣

Alcachofita🏳️⚧️✨🇵🇸 (@alcachofita.bsky.social):

Ah, ya no me siento tan tonta, entonces hahahahagaga

Estaba un poco así

Isabel Mellén (@isamellen.bsky.social):

Lo que a mí me parece importante son las listas de bloqueos masivos. Eso mola porque te suscribes y bloqueas en masa a toda la gente que está allí por nazi, TERF o bot.

Isabel Mellén (@isamellen.bsky.social):

El otro día creé una cuenta colaborativa para bloquear señoros y mansplainers. Si hay alguno que te toca los ovarios me avisas y va para la lista. 😜 bsky.app/profile/did:...

Lamhfada (@lamhfada.bsky.social):

This is a very disingenuous interpretation of what Bernie Sanders actually said - which is that the Democrats have abandoned the working class and their material needs - implying he's some kind of a TERF because of this is just laughably wrong nonsense.

Max Kennerly (@maxkennerly.bsky.social):

Bernie Sanders and Seth Moulton agree: we'll win if we throw trans people under the bus.

Reminder that both are failed Presidential candidates who are in Congress via populations unrepresentative of the Democratic base.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

It's because "Identity Politics" is the New England / New York high society dogwhistle for ethnic minorities & queen people.

Maybe Bernie isn't aware, maybe it's overspecified, but it is what it is

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

*queer people

"Idpol" is the salonfahige term used by i.e. Brnn Wu & her new friends.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Real quick head's up — the "Real Cat Turd" account, did:plc:7ywf4tokx3r3h5s6y4pychyz was an impersonation account, part of a group of inauthentic accounts.

It is suspended — because it was manipulating the network.

They'll come here eventually, but they'll launch lawsuits first

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

When they do come here, authentically, they'll have people keeping them from breaking BlueSky's AUP, until they set up their own service using atproto, but only to EEE - Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

No matter what, it will be always important to block, not dunk.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

If you've never watched The Expanse, I cannot recommend it highly enough

Halfway through season 2, it goes hard

Jim "Vermin Scum" Goodale (@jimgoodale.bsky.social):

It's a great show. It's my favorite science fiction television show. The books are great too, but the show has it all - great pacing, visual effects which can be stunning or subtle, acting, dialogue - a tour de force.

Courtney (@connecticutting.bsky.social):

Block with a quickness. Cut the oxygen

Shar (@shar19l.bsky.social):

An absolute block.

Jeff Seidman (he/him) (@jeffsseidman.bsky.social):

Block his followers first, then him.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

His followers are on my Hate Enablers list: bsky.app/profile/did:...

Looking at his follows, seems like they're all impersonation accounts.

Jeff Seidman (he/him) (@jeffsseidman.bsky.social):

Just subscribed to your list to group block. Thank you for your service!
