My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

I don't know, though, I'm still not confident the Mariners can hold it together and win their division.

they're all having GREAT years, for sure.

Lorena is just unfair pffft. Kansas City gonna be that good and give up that little and then bring in Lorena to just start *stealing* goals off people's feet on top of it all. 😅

different sources give the data somewhat differently, but basically every source agrees: Dickey has been /absolutely fuckin' on one/ this year.

also, poaching eggs in the microwave is practically foolproof and takes 20-30 seconds.

This is going around again and it is not true. Like every site on the internet, Bluesky uses machine learning to do a first-pass approximation of image classification to detect and label content. They have repeatedly confirmed outside services do not use Bluesky user data to train their models.

I ran across Friday at a convention in what would have been early in the second year, bought a lavender earl grey, thought it was an unusually lovely grey

then in a fit of madness, decided I wanted to make perfume out of it

anyway it's practically three lifetimes later but I'm still buying the tea

and, well, we don't exist in a vacuum.

we can see the patterns of who gets those disproportionate, retaliatory blocks and who gets infinite grace.

moderation is fucking hard, mistakes happen, but the patterns are still real and they need to be addressed and broken.

june ash eden, local sweetie coffee gworl @kafkaesquities.bsky.social · 2d

we can see, say, link's account being permanently ethered *across the entire @proto* for a meme, which, even if you do interpret it as uncharitably as possible despite his explanations otherwise, is just a wildly disproportionate response that can only be read as retaliatory.

so like - I think this is, as a policy, perfectly reasonable and defensible. maybe not what I prefer, but I understand how you get there.

in a vacuum, that's true of most of bsky's big choices.

we don't exist in a vacuum, though, and we can see the retaliation and inconsistency of application.
