“It should be crystal clear to everyone that the real threat to community safety is the ICE agents harassing, targeting, detaining — and in some tragic cases — killing our neighbors. This violence is unacceptable, it is criminal, and it is against the constitution of the United States.” https://www.portland.gov/council/districts/1/candace-avalos/news/2026/1/8/east-portland-councilors-avalos-dunphy-smith

I wrote about the unprecedented mass censorship and surveillance laws that Congress is trying to ram through in the name of “protecting kids” and how none of this is about protecting kids.

At the creator level, the live streaming market is also becoming more decentralized. The top 5% of streamers now account for 86% of total hours watched, which is notably down from 98% in 2019.
As viewers explore niche communities and new voices, the live streaming creator world is becoming more nichified (something that happened on YouTube too as it grew).

“The media loves talking to PR people when it comes to corporations,” Piker said. “They have no problem talking to the media liaison when it comes to the NYPD or the LAPD and writing down everything they say without even asking remotely contentious questions.

As Eliot Higgins, the founder of Bellingcat, says in this thread, it's disturbing that a completely insane conspiracy theory about Kate Middleton swapping her face in a photo has 38M views.

The truth truly does not matter to people because they want to believe the conspiracy and cannot be convinced otherwise. https://twitter.com/EliotHiggins/status/1767315138221146553

Screenshotting this post 👇🏻 in order to quote post it! I don’t know where people get the idea that quote posting = dunks, personally I feel that that opinion is just Twitter brain.
Every major social platform from Tumblr, to Facebook, to LinkedIn and more has the ability to natively quote post. This is because the primary use of such a feature is to amplify information w added context or to open a new line of discussion. Replies are used far more often for harassment but we don’t ban replies!

Right wing weirdos on here keep spamming my mentions about a time I ordered a $22 meal on Uber Eats that included avocado toast.
The toast itself was $14.50 but with tax, tip, and delivery fee the total came out to $22. The toast came with an egg and a salad. All around a good deal imo!!
But here we are 5 years later and these right wingers act like it’s some absurd luxury that I ordered a meal on Uber Eats once https://marsey.moe/objects/50646084-9687-41d5-b908-09a7c34d8c0c

A snake fell from the sky onto her arm. Then a hawk attacked the snake. https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/09/us/texas-woman-snake-hawk-attack/index.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=threadsCNN&utm_content=2023-08-09T15%3A49%3A03

People are so mad at me for promoting my YouTube, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s that you have to diversify when it comes to platforms.
Also, I’m really proud of the videos I’ve been putting out there and have a lot of big plans for my channel! Sorry for telling u guys about it constantly, but it’s a big focus for me and I have been working hard on my videos!! https://youtube.com/@TaylorLorenz

Elon Musk claims he’s a “free speech absolutist,” but is now using his attorneys to try to silence and threaten a non profit that tracks hate speech and violent extremism https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/31/technology/twitter-x-center-for-countering-digital-hate.html #twitter #elonmusk #twittermigration #tech #technology #technews #news #x

“Is travel cringe? It certainly feels that way, particularly if you’re traveling to one of the destinations that have become symbols of internet-driven over-tourism — Tulum, Lisbon, Reykjavik, Mexico City, Santorini, Dubrovnik, to name a few from the past decade.” https://www.vox.com/culture/23798890/american-tourists-travel-trends-vacation-optimization

@npub1sat…8vnx ohh! Thank you for letting me know, I’ll be sure to include them more often going forward

Mastodon is great, the only thing I miss on this app is quote posts. I know they have a bad rap bc of Twitter, but every major social network has this functionality for a reason (Tumblr, LinkedIn, Facebook, IG). As a journalist, I’d love to add commentary and amplify great info, build on ppl’s points, etc. You just can’t do that the same wait with replies! Is there any chance we might get them on here?
