As a former moderator I'm heavy on let the machine do it. A hybrid model will be the best approach but let the machine throw out the real sick stuff first. Humans can get involved if there's a quibble about the machine's decision.
It took me 2.5 yrs to shake hands after quitting content moderator.

"Black is tired."
- Joshua Idehen
#Poetry #BlackSky 🌱
Black says keep your 40 acres just let Black reach the end of the street just let Black reach for the last skittles sweet just let Black reach into Black’s own car let Black reach into Black’s own lungs…

Earthquakes, eclipses, cicadas... end times.

Poem called "Learn To Swim" by Joshua Idehen is incredibly beautiful. So many words of wisdom, both funny and heartbreaking.
Stay cool, learn to swim
Nah, mate, you're not too heavy
Your bones are not too dense
Pennywise was right
In the end, everyone floats
- Joshua Idehen,
"Learn to Swim"
So glad that Joshua Idehen @joshuaidehen.bsky.social is here
So much political, economic, social, and theological theory and humor in this song.
And humor. 🎶🎧👑

I’ve been listening to this on repeat this week. It’s a very good album, and maybe my favorite album title ever?
Wish Erica Buddington was on here, and Langston League.
They are on IG.

Her references DON'T MISS!!
Love that a reference to Saidiya Hartman's "Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiements" is in the syllabus for Sinners, and so many other bangers, because yaaaaaasssss!

Unless they wrote a LoveCraft book based on the series, the original novel is racist.
Loved the syllabus (with references and recs) created by the folks at Langston League for each episode.
Looks like they created syllabus for Sinners too. #BlackSky #Sinners

No worries. Not even sure that the app has a way to add alt-text to uploaded video.
I can make out the book title, "Born in Flames: The Business of Arson and the Remaking of the American City" by Bench Ansfield (adding here for folks).
I cannot read the white text, but guessing it's praise. 📚🩵

Mom printed everything out and something clicked. Her daughter started highlighting, doing calculations in the margins.
