I'm MadScientist212, aka MayaScientist, from Twitter. I'm a trans women in my 30s, she/her pronouns please. I likely won't be on Twitter much if at all in the future, so looking to reconnect with as many friends and mutuals as possible here. <3
Pinned
On a different note, I mentioned this on Twitter when I was talking about how I'm pretty much leaving the site, but should mention it here too. If we're currently mutuals on Twitter, and you follow me here and I don't follow back, feel free @ me and let me know. I want to connect with you here-

Discord says hackers stole government IDs of 70,000 users
As more sites require IDs for user age verification, expect more such breaches to come.

Discord can fuck off. Or does that language offend their delicate sensibilities now?
Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

![The advertising during the game stood out for a high number of celebrity cameos and advertisements for futuristic technology, particularly for products like electric vehicles, virtual reality and cryptocurrency.[136][137][138][139] There were many cryptocurrency-related ads drawing comparisons to dot-com commercials during Super Bowl XXXIV in 2000,[140][141] leading some to refer to the game as the "Crypto Bowl".[142][143]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:exrxvyu6bpoym6mbnctke5tn/bafkreievce7ps4onya4r7lnkhyunbnuniltxqhynyysdz3ratcfzlsah3a@jpeg)

This Skeletor has been memed 100 times but not until I was replicating him did I notice that in a stroke of either incompetence or genius the original renderer of this image decided to make hiseye socket and nose hole just be the same hole. But it still reads right if you don’t think about it.

I assumed Bezos wanted the Post to dictate coverage and make it friendly to him and his interests, turning it into a pathetic propaganda rag he controls, but I guess he's also satisfied with just burning it to the ground instead.

Killing the Washington Post *sports* section is so grossly incompetent I don't even have the words. Even the shittiest rags in the UK know that sports coverage is always a revenue generator, even if it's biased and shitty.
the owner just spent 75 million on a film that opened with a 7 million take
WaPo's Matt Murray told staff the paper is shuttering sports, moving remaining staff to features, shrinking foreign coverage, restructuring metro, closing books coverage, suspending Post Reports podcast

This is a weird aspect of Bluesky's design that I often forget about, but it's something to always be aware of and not just for NG, though he's obviously a big one on people's mind right now.
Fun fact: unlike on Twitter, there is no link between blocking and unfollowing on Bsky. So if you were following an account and immediately blocked it, you are still listed as a follower. (That's about 20 people I follow who also follow rapist NG, which doesn't feel great! Check and fix maybe?)
Whole lot of you following Neil Gaiman, and I assume it's because you forgot you did so and he stopped posting when it was revealed he is a rapist.
Since he's trying to make a return, do yourself a favour and check if you're following @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com and if so unfollow and block.

First time I managed to get enough Aptitude sparks to win the Arima Kinen with her. Turf was still only D rank (didn't get any boosts for it 2nd Inspiration) compared to Long being B rank, so I didn't think it would be enough, but she barely pulled it off.
