I think walled gardens are inevitable, and desirable, and the walls have doors. I think we'll end up with a big mainstream garden/island of federation of U.S. pop culture w/ Threads and CNN and my mom. Other gardens/islands for things like child safe content, adult only content, servers that refuse to federate with for-profit servers (where I'll be), etc.

Also, I suspect it will (or already is) be common for people to have multiple accounts on different servers for different purposes. I find myself blocking all porn, not because I'm anti porn but it's just not what I'm looking for when I log in with this account. When I want porn, I'll make an account on the nsfw server just for that.

As this started happening more and more throughout the years, I’ve often wondered if it was me, if I was so out of touch, but it turned out it was really the children (redditors) who were wrong.

Sometimes Skinner is right.

Beau (of the fifth column) has a cool shirt that says something like "Beyond these borders do not lie a lesser people."

Some of them could be without gerrymandering and other tricks, they have to ensure they can continue with.

Defederating seems reasonable in this case, until bots can be effectively controlled and are obvious.

Huh, I think Republicans are immoral after decades of actual grooming and convictions.

I think we need to take full advantage of this and get them to take down companies for us. Doesn't matter if it's easy to prove wrong.

Pride at Kentucky museum (www.youtube.com)

Watching a video from one of my favorites, the Carpetbagger and he's at a museum in Kentucky. After constantly seeing and hearing so much bad about Kentucky, it's awesome to see there's good people there!

At least 5x as many licks as it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.

Is Vanna gonna stay? I suppose I could read the article, but trying to keep Reddit traditions alive.

Brutal

This is where my mind goes. Kinda convenient that Twitter and Reddit, both likely particularly dangerous to those seeking power happen to be destroyed seemingly intentionally in the same year ahead of a sure to be insane U.S. election season.
