I'd rather have a moderated site replace Twitter at this point, even if it's run by Meta. My first choice is for an intuitive non-Meta alternative to rise to prominence, ideally in the fediverse, but I think Mastodon had its chance and its unintuitive nature was too challenging for a critical mass of lay people. It needs to be: sign up, start posting. Instead it's: sign up, choose your server. Huh? You're already losing people.

All this has already been covered but it has to be simple and intuitive and that's what Threads is offering and Mastodon isn't.

And by the way, if you see your mom this weekend, would you be sure and tell her…

I absolutely love the look of NES Tetris. The little specular highlights on the blocks, the bright colors, the utilitarian font. It’s my favorite (although I wish it had placement previews).

Would those be the Twitter employees who loved where they worked and were unceremoniously fired?

To this day it’s impossible to activate search in Fandom on iOS. Pressing the magnifying glass icon does nothing. It’s been this way for years and apparently no one at Fandom cares.

Say it’s 3AM and you need to make chili…

Oh come on, who doesn't remember reading the meme strips in the Sunday morning paper?

When I got older I started enjoying meme books like Spider-Man, too.

Gary Larson was my favorite memer. Ever seen The Far Side memes?

“We like any place where the leader declares cisgender to be a slur.”

Great news!

We need to transition from a culture that implicitly believes that infinite waste is not a problem. According to a story I read in the NYT this morning, more than 10 million tons of office furniture in the United States end up in a landfill every year. Ten million tons! And it's all just handled by people doing their jobs, nobody able to stop the cogs and ask if we've lost our minds.

The guy who invented Keurig, with its disposable plastic pods, later said that he regretted it after seeing how much waste it created. I think if we had a healthy culture, Keurig couldn't have been invented as it was because the inventor would've foreseen the waste and found it totally a nonstarter.

I think it's kind of making an argument about people who intentionally eschew mainstream social media, saying that they're basically nuts. So it's kind of about me but I find it surprising and original enough that it amused me a lot.

It’s recent and that list may not account for inflation.

This is hilarious and the audience that would understand it is very small.

I enjoy these write ups even when I’m not familiar with the game. Fun stuff!

This but unironically.

It still baffles me that Digg preferred losing their site over rolling back v4.

I think I will never understand why people put "Nobody:" onto memes.

Reddit fired Victoria because they didn’t want to spend any cash on this kind of thing.
