@manton Hey, I’ve moved to the acceptance stage of mourning the few categories I actually want. If your offer to nuke them all is still feasible, please do that when you get around to it.

@asrothstein.bsky.social Yeah, and that splatter pattern suggests the need for some kind of medical attention, or at least serious dietary changes….
@asrothstein.bsky.social That looks like it might be a stain caused by mold cleaner…. Though I’m not an expert
@manton ugh. I really want to keep the 10 or so I always intended to use. I’ve been trying to delete some of them but it looks like I’m a rate limit exceeding edge case. I think when the categories page tries to load the post count on each category row, that’s when I hit the rate limit pretty fast. I found this out the hard way while trying to vibe code some way to programmatically press a bunch of delete buttons all at the same time via the JavaScript console…
(PS: kudos on the recent update that doesn’t import WP tags as categories, that should save future importers from my fate 😆)
@anildash.com Yeah one of the negatives to Bluesky moderation is that some people are very performative about, virtue signaling via lists of people they think are a cool middle-aged insult word like “dipshits”
@jowolff.bsky.social Remarkable given that it’s an AI owned and spoon-fed topic-specific biases by Musk but which still insists on centering the truth in reply to a prompt like that
@manton is there a way to bulk delete categories? I unwittingly imported possibly hundreds with an old Blogger import…
@jamellebouie.net He strikes me as a Tim Robinson character who breaks free of Tim Robinson mysterious laser beam accident to run rampant through the real world.
@veenadubal.bsky.social My 5yo daughter was angry this morning when I told her no, she couldn’t have whipped cream for breakfast. She shouted at me that she wishes she never had me. It was very confusing for a moment or two.
@bencollins.bsky.social The unhinged trumpian hate engine seems completely oblivious that they are actively engaged in radicalizing large swaths of once-AOC-skeptical dems toward that very outcome…
@emilprotalinski.bsky.social It looks like the field accept arbitrary URLs, so I just linked to Bluesky and Mastodon
@nickfield.bsky.social Right? Super weird.
@pariss.blacktechpipeline.com 💯 It’s absolutely nothing like I thought it would be, in the best way.
@jwlicinio.bsky.social 💯 I’m with you on this. It makes for a passable retrospective and objective critique thread, but it completely ignores that the driving force of the revivalism is subjective nostalgia that, by definition, means very little to those too young or too old to feel that nostalgia. Also… 1/2
@jwlicinio.bsky.social I was born in ‘83 so I’m too old to be a zoomer and I think I’m an “elder millennial” - most of my nostalgia is for the 90s and the following decade, warts and all.
@kattenbarge.bsky.social I’m like ACTUALLY the point of not being explicitly evil is that you don’t value human life based on how similar the person is to you
@dave I just learned this too. You can pull a feed for any public or unlisted playlist too, just append the playlist ID to
@matthewdownhour.bsky.social Horizon Zero Dawn and Skyrim. I haven’t gamed since the kids. Oldest is five now.
