I was on a tv show about technology for 7 years. We got to meet a lot of the big tech people, many before they became household names. So I’ve known (you know who) sucked for ten years before it became public knowledge.
Different places guide ppl towards different behaviors. Places have different mores & users will follow those unsaid guidelines. Twitter’s been descending into anger for years. But we can keep a more civil level of discourse here. The culture of a site dictates the tenor of the conversation.
We have to be honest that bluesky is only like this because it's invite only. It won't remain like this for long and will probably grow into something similar to Twitter. I'm just hoping that the admin team on here will handle things differently than current Twitter management.
So @emilyvgordon.bsky.social & I are sponsoring a free screening of Polite Society at Aperture Cinema in Winston-Salem, NC. It’s totally free! Just show up! No catch! We wanted to support cool small movies and cool small theaters. Sunday May 7th at 1:15 pm. First come first serve.
Yes I’m friends with the guy who made it, but Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is a magical film. James does things in it that I never thought I’d see in a huge comic book film. It inhabits a sprawling universe while focusing on big & tiny moments of humanity. It’s imaginative, open hearted & inspiring.
Ok I’m gonna go old school and ask a question I would have asked on the other thing years ago:
I need a new video game to start. Options are: Dead Space remake, Resident Evil 4 remake, Horizon DLC or the new Jedi game. Want a single player actiony adventurey thing. PS5.
Thoughts?
