Like, if you look at this post a friend sent me and then actually read the “deranged replies” it’s mostly people pointing out that you should take jury duty seriously, but you gotta justify still hanging out in a place you know sucks.

It's funny because on here you often have to scroll down to find weird non-sequiturs from the most tedious people imaginable. Meanwhile on Twitter tedious weirdos can pay to be at the top of threads. It's almost as if they like that better because they're the tedious weirdos.

half the time on Twitter the top reply will be someone blaming Jews for whatever the main tweet is complaining about

We also have a problem with people overusing the word “deranged” to describe everything they find annoying or not cool. Being overly earnest may make you a dork but so does pulling this Cool Kids Table shit in your 30s.

lol I kinda get the idea of getting a thicker skin but that goes both ways - getting lectured about the importance of jury duty is a mild annoyance and an eye roll at absolute worst, literally who cares

The replies are annoying because they're earnest. Like posting "God I hate my job" and getting a bunch of "oh, so you want the economy to collapse?" replies I get why that's a tad obnoxious but very funny to complain on the Nazi site; guessing it's not hard to find a worse set of replies over there

"I like it better on Twitter where my dumb bitching has paid sex bots replying, causing all the earnest posting to be too far down to bother me before I've clocked through to someone's pussy in bio."

I do think that we could stand to be a little less moralistic about where people post, that list from earlier this week didn’t sit well to me, and we can do that because the people still posting over there are pretty clearly aware it sucks.

I see these and I don't really understand. It's gotta be a wild LARP seeded on twitter by Musk's in-house bot army. Everyone knows if you post "hello" on twitter you get 35 replies from 🐱 in bio to "stop the war" to "Obama didn't take my guns" and somehow the replies *here* are unhinged???

Hello! My name is Margaret and I think we could stand to be a little less moralistic about where people post

Mostly agree. Though I do think electeds who flee Bluesky for X the moment they’re criticized on here (like Brian Schatz) deserve the scorn that resulted from that choice.

It might be my unique experience, but those replies are incredibly annoying because they miss why jury duty sucks. I’ve been on it a half-dozen times, only had to show up once, that one time nobody in the entire waiting room was even interviewed for potential service. It’s just an annoying tax.

The replies are humorless and a bit annoying in a "well actually" sort of way, but deranged?

Not deranged at all and definitely not unique to Bluesky. I’ve gotten similar replies online for 20+ years to my notion that jury duty is a tax.
