I recognize that this might not go over well among some folks here, but I worry about the reaction people had last week to the story of a guy who used ChatGPT as part of his suicide plans. The rush to blame the tech only leads to bad places, as we're already seeing. RE:

It's so weird how Greenwald and Nate Silver and the like—who aren't even here—keep insisting that Bluesky is pro-DNC, when I've yet to see anyone here ever say anything nice about the DNC at all. Also, evaporating? Lol. Bluesky now sends WAY more traffic to [@techdirt.com](

Anyhow, I spent the long weekend camping on a beach, kayaking, and seeing wildlife, and it was not bad at all, even if the internet was occasionally available. Also got to see the moon set over the ocean which I don't think I've seen before (it turns red!) but couldn't get a good photo. https://oyster.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:cak4klqoj3bqgk5rj6b4f5do&cid=bafkreic6isktyznjxfp6fvmqf7fkb63g5uarfuz5mf5jcpxawqtin77e2q https://oyster.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:cak4klqoj3bqgk5rj6b4f5do&cid=bafkreien6cpzzlcfmyt6l4dqygeijc3xmif3cl4n7pdxetidqrrccb7mai https://oyster.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:cak4klqoj3bqgk5rj6b4f5do&cid=bafkreidgagnqhzst3bb2xwk6yms2y5cxem7rs47hhqwjvnln3ugiaie4yi https://oyster.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:cak4klqoj3bqgk5rj6b4f5do&cid=bafkreib7br3lp372yspyivj55kqreosud672zntulbwedg7rhewh36m4de
Went to look at how people were responding to Nate Silver's "blueskyism" post, and I gotta tell you, a very large number of people on X seem to think that Bluesky runs the Democratic Party. And have I got news for them... RE:
