Like most, I've dabbled in social media, doomscrolling my way to distraction and wondering how something could be so compelling yet so deflating at once.

After hopping around a bit and finally abandoning the blue bird a year or so before Elon took it over and renamed it X, I thought I might be done. But I was tempted by Mastadon, then beckoned by Bluesky, the Jack Dorsey-backed Twitter clone where you skeet instead of tweet, and where a slow-rolling beta is slowly expanding its user base.

So Mind Mined is on Bluesky for now, but maybe not for long, because it's still basically the same medium we wandered away from before. Nonetheless, we have an available Bluesky invitation for the curious and adventurous first asker who emails me and wants to see what this one is all about.





At their best, these news bulletins announce amazing new entries to our Public Library, Audio Funhouse, or Gallery from worldwide contributors. At their worst, they devolve into the editor's 2am bloggings.
