For those not fluent in Catholic: refusing the Monstrance is not denying prisoners the Eucharist, it is refusing Christ himself, since Christ is present in the Monstrance.

If Portland’s blow up animals are the right language for Portland, this is the right language for Chicago.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

I'm getting nonstop AI slop ads for Kalshi when that app is about to get banned for 1. not being a futures app, & 2. violating agreements with California native tribes around gambling.

like in order to report people for saying slurs during games I'm supposed to enter the match id? stupid.

I am extremely tired @brobuntu.bsky.social · 23h

"enter the share code for the relevant match below to help us quickly review potential negative behavior"

This misinformation post containing an AI generated video, claiming a reporter got arrested for covering ice is getting traction, it's been up for like 5 hours and it's still up.

Screenshot of a bluesky post by Jenn Budd (@jennbudd.bsky.social) of an AI video with Jenn's caption: "Seems like they are going after reporters who are women. They hit one w/pepper spray ammo in her car, the WGN reporter and now this." The screenshot is a still of a female reporter with three arms, two behind her back, one holding a microphone in front of her, staring off in the distance as she is arrested by officers, all but one of whom are off screen, the one behind her is also staring off in a direction off camera.

@eff.org thanks for keeping me informed to contact my representatives over such broad sweeping regulation that will directly affect my personal safety and the future of the internet!

a screenshot (in italian) of a search on bluesky to see if the electronic frontier foundation (eff.org) has posted anything including the string 1043, showing no results

The second it's clearly a piece exchange puzzle or simple capture instead of a mate-in-n, my adrenaline goes off rn. "am I missing something"

the old system had inflation issues, sure, but it also had a median of ~500. So the update feels like they either completely shoved everyone into that ~1400-median curve from above or completely uplifted everyone who was low rank to the 1400 area

Italian localizations normally would represent "one thousand and one quarter" as "1.000,25"

I am extremely tired @brobuntu.bsky.social · 2d

the idea of the changes is cool but this distribution is wild-- I feel like most people got placed at ~1490 when the change went into effect. My phone is in italian so confusingly chess.com renders the period incorrectly as both the decimal and the thousands separator.

a screenshot of the chess.com leaderboard showing next to no one at 500 rating, a graph of player distributions that resembles a somewhat poisson or normal distribution with a median around ~1400, rapidly converging to the x axis by 2500 onward. underneath it lists an average rating of 1410.56; an average Glicko RD of 73.39; an average number of attempts of 68,868; an average success rate of 64%; a total number of players of 10,113,511; and a total number of attempts of 16,626,776,907.

I mean the reasons make sense. I just am probably going to freak out and drop doing chess puzzles when I get too many wrong in succession, though
