"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic. “Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities. If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

If Andrew Cuomo, a craven politician desperate for power, is putting out statements about ICE like this, that’s both a sign that the Trump administration is losing on immigration and that the pundits who are arguing we need to take a harder stance on immigration to win are full of shit.

Kind of gratifying that yellow—a color I associate with corruption, decay, and malice, but also with eternity, purifying sunlight, and godhood—is the hue with which the AI signs its pictures

when you praise a helper dog 🐶♥️

I keep seeing reviews for this great local spot of people complaining that their chorizo breakfast burrito is too greasy. Y’all…chorizo is greasy!! IT IS GREASY!!! That’s how it is!!

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

Getting in “the mood”

We've adjusted the ways you can report accounts and posts to Laelaps. We now only allow reports from the Sexual, Illegal, or Other categories. Please keep this in mind when you send in reports. The report process, otherwise, remains the same:

New: A DOGE staffer developed an AI tool to review Veterans Affairs contracts. But there was a slight hitch. It hallucinated the size of those deals. For example, it concluded that more than a thousand contracts were each worth $34M, when in fact some were for as little as $35,000.

Hi, I'm the one responsible for coding Bluesky's Discover tab, I was under a lotta pressure and at the same time I was under contract to prototype a dating app for the terminally humourless, some wires got crossed and I might've accidentally delivered the wrong code to the wrong client.

New PR: Replace "Note about sharing" prompt with an inline hint (#8452)

i will always maintain that moderation lists that pull multiple topics into one that aren't closely related are Incredibly Fucking Dangerous and at scale could lead to a lot more false positives than a blocklist about one topic, or separate blocklists

"i don't have the time to manage the list and check who's really a—" then don't fucking make a blocklist???

horrible metaphor. my owner doing the ball behind the back trick is a real issue. i tried bringing it up with him and he just said i had a "good voice." what the fuck does that mean

I know posting "the girls are fighting" seems funny, but it's actually insensitive and shitty. My father died in a girl fight. He tried to break it up and the girls pulled him apart like freshly baked bread. He didn't even scream. One moment he was there, the next just a spray of dad viscera.

Heika and @laelaps.fyi do good work that has influenced Bluesky moderators, apparently by working to be a model and set standards with transparency, while improving and weathering typical and predictable backlash.

all of bluesky right now:

full offense but if you still are an active twitter user i think less of you as a person

In case facts still matter:

Ah , interesting. Looks like the flag isn't rendering for some people? Super weird. Anyways its

hey, for the record, if you're ever in an argument with a zoophile, there's a chance they'll use you saying "animals can't consent" to deflect away from any criticism of bestiality. make sure to say "animals can't consent to sex with humans" to shut them up, because that's really what it's about 🤗
