vibes are bad today in my personal life, and it's getting harder to put on this mask pretending like things are alright

oh yeah apropos of absolutely nothing at all, and definitely not the new bluesky ceo's comments, i still really really want to start a social media co-op blog.wellssanto.com/i-want-to-ma...

I want to make a better social media site."Remember to imagine and craft the worlds you cannot live without, just as you dismantle the worlds you cannot live within." – Ruha Benjamin For the past four years I've wanted to make a social med...blog.wellssanto.com

is it called kick cause all the people who stream on there were kicked off every other platform

just realized that you can't spell contentious without content

reminder to self, write about my social media co-op idea again today (and still do nothing tangible about it)

i want to build a platform that's aggressively anti-genAI but i don't know if that's technically or financially feasible. but i'm just so tired of all this across all our apps. like, just give me a non-AI space 😭

meta question: can someone actually write this book

you could write a really interesting book about how the gut has been overlooked as a central part of one's identity. from plato's tripartite soul to the complex workings of the gut biome to colloquialisms like "gut feeling", you could trace why identity is more than the mental but is deeply embodied

something happened today in my research area that's absolutely incredible but has absolutely no bearing on my research at all and no one will ever really know (or care) about it except me, and i think that's a shame

I got more engagement on my recent LinkedIn post than my BlueSky posts and that genuinely worries me LMAO

idk i think there's something ironic about participating in a space that wants to make LLMs and generative AI better, but also not wanting LLMs and generative AI to affect your own work

can't help but think that the dismantling of twitter has hurt social movements in at least some way cause we definitely should be hearing and connecting more about the nationwide data center protests today

wanting to write something about physical media and materiality and memory and data centers and the cloud and subscriptions and ownership and--
