Hopefully it will spur Bluesky to enact the sort of modifications that Twitter had to discover to manage brigading like simply allowing an account to go private.

Stuff like that reminds me that Bluesky is still a toddler that is absolutely going to go through some growing pains.

Toxic Dogpilers
List by @unchi.org
People who participated in, or celebrated, the Jamelle Bouie Dogpiling of 2024 and of other prominent Black voices on Bluesky. People whose sole contributions are cheap invective coordinated to drive people into silence or withdrawal.

I feel like we are in the proto phase of, iirc, Neal Stephenson's Fall where people in the civilized world hired editors for their social media feeds.

I'm really feeling this this weekend after Jamelle Bouie quit Bluesky after a bunch of toxic trans activists bullied him off for not quiting his NYT gig.

Miserable people searching for dopamine hits being rewarded for the wrong ones.

I think it depends on how you measure it. If it is a one shot measurement, i think rice might come out on top. But rice takes a long time to mature, so there is another measurement that acounts for how many days to harvest and that's where sweet potatoes come out on top.

Sweet potatoes are also a tropical/subtropical crop with a 12 month growing season.

Has anyone put together a public list of the dickbags that drove bouie off yet so we don't have to put up with their shit?

Iirc, the highest is sweet potato.

Some crops have higher yields under agrivoltaics and some crops have lower yields. The lower yields are ofset by the revenue from the PV. So the dual use ends up more profitable even with the reduced yield.

project 2025 also calls to kill missing middle zoning reforms, hold exclusionary zoning and economic segregation as sacrosanct, and promote endless sprawl. 'American homeowners... know best what is in the interest of their neighborhoods and communities' yikes.

Her voting record shows support for trans and abortion rights. Where are the moderate Republicans in the House voting against their party's anti-trans and anti-abortion bills?

That whole article is basically just restating that Harris underperforms Biden or loses to Trump except in a Nate Silver poll

The Economist which doesn't have an interest in making the election look like a horse race gets it right
