An anthropomorphic bunny girl smiling. She has choppy and layered redish brown hair that's a bit above shoulder length. There are two longer sections of hair that are a pale blond and framing her face. Her left ear is redish brown on the bottom and quickly fades to that same blond with a small silver hoop piercing near the top. Her right ear is the same except it fades to blond near the tip of her ear and with two small silver hoops near the top. Her left eyebrow is redish brown and her right is blond. She has bright minty eyes and hot pink X mark pupils and long lashes. Shes wearing a chunky black choker with large silver spikes and a black v-neck bodysuit. It rises high above her light blue jean shorts, showing her light yellow fur between the two. She also has large light brown spots with a red tone. Shes also wearing a black garter with a silver loop attaching the pieces together and it's attached to her striped thigh highs. The thigh high to the left is hot pink and black stripes, in that order, and the one on the right is black and a turquoise/minty color. She's wearing all black sneakers with a high platform. A digital painting of the lower part of a white face with pink toned shadows, from a bit above the nose bridge to the chin. There is no visible neck. The mouth is parted slightly, revealing the top teeth and the tongue that is stretched outwards. The tongue is a pink color, shining and drips just slightly. The mouth is a slightly deeper and colder shade of pink, shining only a bit. The upper part is obscured by upward paint strokes in shades from bright hot pink to peachy pink to a little bit of the skin tone shades. The background is a deep wine red. A digital full body drawing of a white elf character named luca. His pronouns are he/him, hes pan/queer, he's an elf and he's trans. He tilts his head slightly with his right hand on his hip. His eyes are a light yellow, and his hair is a turquoise color but his yellow blond roots are showing. His eyebrows are small turquoise stars, and he has a septum ring. He has long spiky lashes and blush and his lips are a mix of light pink and red. He has droopy elf ears adorned with at least two small gold hoop piercings. Hes wearing a black choker and a golden rosary. Hes wearing a long red v-neck dress with a slit that reaches his hip. Lace adorns the edges of it. Hes also wearing a see-through jacket(? Idk what to call it) with white fur along the edges. He wears fishnets and large black boots that reach just below his knees and have a big platform. A digital painting of a brightly colored eye surrounded by colorful droopy melty skin. The colors are red, orange, green and turquoise. The pupils glow a lime green. The skin is a similar range of unnatural hues, except it also includes a bright pink and deep purple.

When I was a Muslim kid growing up in the US it was unthinkable that most of the people around me would support Palestine.

This is not a doomed cause. We are making a difference by speaking out and that puts pressure on the people who make laws and fund genocides

So, apparently Bluesky PERMANENTLY banned someone for posting a single Charlie Kirk meme.

AJ is a fantastic community builder who had a big account & is an adjunct prof at Howard University. The idea that he doesn't even deserve a first warning is absurd.

Unfortunate update: Link reached out to BlueSky and got email back now on reason.

His appeal is denied. He will remain permanently banned on BlueSky’s side.

Here are the screenshots he just sent me as of 8:22 AM EST(my time)
A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team with the subject line “Bluesky Account Behavior” sent at 22:15. The email states that a Bluesky account controlled by the recipient, with the handle @spacelawshitpost.me, posted a reply with an image where the alt text reads: Charlie Kirk sitting in a white T-shirt that says “Freedom.” A negative consequence follows. The email indicates this post violates Community Guidelines regarding violent or threatening speech, specifically listing threats of violence or physical harm against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public, and incitement of self-harm or suicide.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A screenshot of an email continuation from the Bluesky Moderation Team displaying a bulleted list of Community Guidelines violations. The first bullet point describes threats of violence or physical harm as including threats or encouragement of violence against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public. The second bullet point defines incitement of self-harm or suicide as content that encourages self-harm or suicide. The third bullet point explains wishes of harm as expressions of a desire for harm directed at a specific person or group. Below the bullets, a paragraph states that users may not use Bluesky to break the law or cause harm to others and that all users must be treated with respect. The next paragraph informs the recipient that as a result of these violations, your account has been taken down. A closing paragraph thanks the user for doing their part to keep Bluesky a welcoming and empowering place for all users and instructs them to email moderation@blueskyweb.xyz if they have questions or wish to appeal the decision. The email ends with the signature Bluesky Moderation Team.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A screenshot of an email reply from a user with the initials AJ and profile picture to the Bluesky Moderation Team, sent at 08:01 with the subject line Re: Bluesky Account Behavior. The email states the user wants to appeal the decision, asserting there was no threatening or violent connotation behind their use of the image. The user explains that the Charlie Kirk post is not a threat but rather a reaction meme expressing disappointment, with no threat made and no incitement of violence. The user mentions they have attached multiple examples and explanations, specifically 12 images in total, demonstrating the use of the image as a reaction meme. Below this text is a blue hyperlink to a Bluesky post URL. At the bottom of the screenshot is an embedded image showing a Bluesky post from a user with the handle @britculpsapp.bsky.social with several emoji reactions and a repost indicator showing Bluesky Elder. The post text reads: how to explain: this has been used as a reaction image to spending $20 on doordashing wendy’s & isn’t a threat. The timestamp shows October 5, 2025 at 3:34 PM.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team sent at 08:11 with the subject line Re: Bluesky Account Behavior addressed To: Hide My Email. The email reads: Hi there, Thank you for reaching out to appeal the takedown of your account on Bluesky. We have carefully reviewed your case, including the information you provided and the activity that led to the suspension of your account. After investigating, we have determined that your account activity was in violation of our community guidelines, specifically promoting hateful content or being disruptive to other users. We take these guidelines seriously to ensure a safe and respectful environment for all our users. As a result, we regret to inform you that your appeal has been denied, and your account will remain suspended. This decision is final and cannot be reversed. We understand that this may be disappointing news, but we must prioritize the well-being of our community and maintain a consistent enforcement of our policies. We encourage you to review our community guidelines to better understand the expectations we have for user behavior on our platform. Please do not create new accounts, since those will be taken down for ban evasion. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Can we get the word around for more donations to go to BlackSky so there’s funding for the infrastructure that can bring Link back?

From my understanding:

Relays are costly and expensive. Anyone feel free to chime in. Bluesky relays is what has him banned.

All I can think of at this point is more support to BlackSky to develop and be independent.

Clarification of words on my OP in comments, but gist is:

Support ongoing developments whether BlackSky or NorthSky or wherever.
