"The Verge and 404 Media are building out new functions that would allow them to distribute posts on their sites and on federated platforms – like Threads, Mastodon and Bluesky – at the same time. Replies to those posts on those platforms become comments on their sites."

If you're not looking at @theverge and @404mediaco as social web platforms that are hosting hand-picked content creators with a publisher's infrastructure, you're not paying attention.

What if we just require Supreme Court Justices to wear patches with all their sponsors kinda like NASCAR drivers?

We're doing something about Fox's 2020 election lies. Support our effort.

We have petitioned the FCC to deny FOX Corp broadcast television licenses on the grounds that they fail the character tests required for public broadcast.

Sign onto letter in support.

TIL: Trees aren't a thing, trees are a strategy. It's not that some plants are trees, it's that some plants find being a tree to be useful.

Saw some text online that made me want to turn it into signage. What good are graphic design skills if you can't have a little fun with them.😜

Back home after a very busy week in San Francisco. I spoke with @caseynewton, @mmasnick, @harrymccracken, @laurengoode, @chrismessina, @Markoff and so many others. In an age where the old web is gradually getting killed off by AI, there is still hope for the future in the shape of the fediverse.

You will encounter some people in your life who will encourage you to get closer to them (by shooting arrows at you) and then, when you do, will simply climb around on your fur and stab your glowing weak points with a cool sword. These are the sorts of toxic people you need to cut out of your life.

This week’s had a lot of good things to say and was gripping from start to finish. Really appreciated the anti-war, who-really-benefits message. Still the best show ever.
