autism is stored in the foreskin

Justin Baragona @justinbaragona.bsky.social · 1d

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

I love how the choice of photo implies we're watching because you've threatened to burn down our houses if we don't 🤣

I met a couple of super awesome and amazing friends because one of them posted a link to my website on her LiveJournal. And through them I met even MORE awesome people!

Open the right door and it's awesome all the way down, like the turtles.

Has anything great happened in your life because of social media?

Blinkie @meemawblinkie.bsky.social · 2d

They believe what they want to believe.

And it is very, very telling that they WANT to believe this.

LOL imagine a Republican pretending he wants pregnant folks to get the health care they need.

Mike Johnson: "If you're a young, pregnant American citizen women who shows up in an ER and you get treated and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some illegal rabble rouser who came in from some South American country to do us harm, that is wrong."

Your IKEA product is your name spelled backward with an umlaut.

EÏKNILB, one of the few coffee tables made with solid wood instead of veneer on chipboard. You can stand on it to reach things, and the rounded edges leave a nice neat bruise on your shins.

Pair it with a coordinating WÄMEEM mug!

Dana Simpson’s Treehouse of Horror 🎃 @danacorn.bsky.social · 3d

Your IKEA product is your name spelled backwards with an umlaut.

ANÄD, an occasional table. Like the kind Llewellyn had: it’s occasionally there. Usually it’s not there. Where is it then? It can’t tell you, it’s a table.

Haha I was so mad I didn't even notice the gas station sign

A news photo from the late 90s/early 2000s. A Southwest Airlines jet has crashlanded on a Chevron gas station and is sitting flat on the ground surrounded by cars and debris. Two firefighters are standing in front of the jet assessing the situation. The Chevron sign shows gas prices starting at $1.59 per gallon.

A caption beneath the photo reads OH MY GOD Look at those gas prices.

Keep LA's name out of your goddamn mouth unless you're going to tell the truth.

Agent Skully's new friends have been approved by the resident postal inspector. (Shout-out to @mostlybree.kitrocha.com )

A fluffy orange cat is relaxing in a cardboard box. In front of him, atop a bestickered notebook, are an array of neat 3D printed things: a skull holding an LED tea light with rainbow melted "wax", a small white skull with magenta heart eyes mounted to a black cylinder keychain like a warlock sushi roll, an adorable flowering mini cactus, and a frog shaped spinny fidget toy in pride colors somewhere between bi and trans.

If I get banned it's definitely for braposting on main and not for my vocal support of posters who hurt the admins' feefees.

Hi Aaron, a thread.
The bot was not a harassment bot. You were ignoring a community that was rightfully upset and trying to get information about the job you are doing.
I used the protocol and the platform to build a bot that simply showed what you were doing on the network. yes, if you posted...

Aaron Rodericks @aaron.bsky.team · 4d

1) This was a spam network shared internally at Bluesky for investigation on spam likes. 2) I misclicked/unclicked, but a harassment bot picked it up 3) I continue to be harassed about it a year later

I'm offering a genuine response that I don't see the need for this continually to be raised.

Blinkie @meemawblinkie.bsky.social · 4d

It wasn't a harassment bot, it was posting info the Bluesky team have repeatedly stated is public. You banned the bot & its creator, denying her appeal w/ lightning speed.

She has been asking for clarification ever since -- you'll give it here to a stranger, but not to her? bsky.app/profile/lite...

The all-knowing bsky mods gave Erin Biba a 24 hour suspension for a months-old skeet about Christian Zionism, and I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that this happened when she’s been vocally criticizing Jay
