Above the image is an (inaccurate) BlueSky label saying “Possible tumblr screenshot” with a “hide” button.

the guy behind this startup:
- (CW bloody photos) “I confirm the information published in the Daily Mail. On May 17, 2023, I performed by myself trepanation, electrode implantation, and electrical stimulation of my brain’s motor cortex. I needed it to test brain stimulation during lucid dreaming”

🚨🛑🚨Tumblr screenshot detected!!🚨🛑🚨
God, I knew Twitter would get even more obnoxious as “X”, but
DAE LE TUMBLRISTA SJWS???
dae everything tumblr is automatically le cringe and bad unlike on le epic x dot com the everything app (dont say cis DONT SAY CIS)
That isn’t Twitter at all, it’s BlueSky with its “composable moderation”.
That particular incorrect label is in my screenshot because I am subscribed to this “XBlock Screenshot Labeller” someone runs, which is kind of goofy but something I currently have enabled and configured so that I have to click on screenshots-or-false-positives before they are displayed.
You can read more about how labels work in bluesky’s docs.
