maybe there should be something like thread unroll or whatever from twitter that automatically ports long threads into template standard.site
standard.site
Standard.site - One schema. Every platform.
Standard.site provides shared lexicons for long-form publishing on AT Protocol. Making content easier to discover, index, and move across the ATmosphere.

the way the posters pfp becomes a really big thumbnail when sharing a bluesky post in a chat ranges from revelatory about the true nature of normally inscrutably small image to mildly disconcerting when some giant bearded late millennial is suddenly smirking at you in the middle of the groupchat

the handful of math PHDs I have known were some of the most meticulously/psychedelically dressed people I've ever known so it kinda makes sense mathematicians were really avoiding certain ideas because they weren't elegant and aesthetic but as a fan of mess and disarray I hate to say I told you so

Hearing that it is solved somehow makes me sad in a far-off way, like hearing an ex-girlfriend died suddenly in a car crash.
But it's supposedly proven here - problem 180. I don't know what to think exactly. I spent thousands of hours on that problem. I really enjoyed it. Hearing that it is solved somehow makes me sad in a far-off way, like hearing an ex-girlfriend died suddenly in a car crash. I don't know, there's probably a lot of people feeling odd emotions tonight.

being annoyed someone used any particular media format or tool to write a poem and while doing so attempt to or actually experience an increase of meaning no matter how mediocre it might be is more or less equivalent to griping about a type of pen

was being rhetorical but mean more like a proper poem is pulled from/presented to a person by the moment not a teacher asking someone to write a poem and then getting annoyed about the kind of pen they used

for teachers who write a poem to scold the student you don't let today touch tomorrows tree so we ignored you. we know you are tired and old. we know you care not for next year in your work. but what are you afraid of? the future? the collective task of if? love is language and falls from the sky

does the roteness of the original poem strike you as particularly resonantly human? if so sad for you light/language have long been bound together in metaphor and information theory and your dismissal shows that you lack grounding in esoterica or cosmolanguagological sciences let alone poetry
