Film you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli.

For example, this person is followed by multiple huge accounts on here

Tonight’s first watch is The Fabelmans Thankfully, I also got Maisie to take all of her bottle just now

This sucks

Incredible essay, absolute must-read

Why would that be what I’m implying? I’m suggesting the constant dogpiling of him is bad and making people crazy about him

Will’s haters want to meet him in Temecula (maximally derogatory, they are the letting their pointless online beefs spill into real world damage, and one of them even committed two murders over it)

These are just a couple posts from the whole Lenin is bad debacle. I just cite them here to help drive the point

And they help lead to posts like this from smaller ones (for reference this is because I’m the ceo of a very, very small nonprofit) bsky.app/profile/asel...

There are a lot of big accounts with lots of even bigger and more mainstream followers that do this stuff all the time! bsky.app/profile/asel...

I think that’s true. But I do think it takes a slow, steady toll. And when it does spill over, the results can be catastrophic

I appreciate the people on here who said something when I was being abused for insulting one of the tankies’ emotional support dictators. But it matters more for a big account that’s actually participated in this stuff to step back and say whoa, maybe chill

I don’t think that works, really. Online is real life. There are ways that mediated spaces like social media affect our cognition and behavior differently from in person ones. But it is real life.

Yeah I absolutely agree. The question is always how to curate content and curb behaviors and impulses. I think we can say Bluesky could improve there

I don’t think there’s any reason it can’t be. We just need better moderation and for the remaining regular people on x to move here and help drown out the bad actors

He’s fine he said so. It’s more just insane that people keep whipping up hate campaigns about him

The nuclear block is very effective but it has its limits and it would be a serious force multiplier if some of the worst harassment networks on this site got decapitated by banning the leading members.

Bouie is a good person and Singal isn't, but the mob is a fucking mob and it was always an obvious problem that needed to be dealt with.

I’ve already seen posts on here suggesting that Stancil slashed his own tires for attention, so the internet continues to be an incredibly normal place full of people capable of self-reflection and the ability to course correct
