Hey, @support.bsky.team could we get a "remove follower" option? Would be helpful for when they haven't done anything that calls for blocking but we don't necessarily want them following us or to end up repeatedly vetting them.

We're half a decade into studies finding that improving airflow in classrooms will reduce disease transmission enormously, and that bleaching surfaces etc. does very little. And yet nothing changes. Waves of flu and colds wash over schools, and the schools pretend it's an act of God.

I’ve now had multiple sources tell me the UK NHS is removing the CDC from its list of reliable sources.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

It is absolutely pathetic that 3 healthcare providers are on this list. Elder and disability care in this country is a disgrace among disgraces.
The Boston Globe identified the companies in Massachusetts that employ the most SNAP recipients. A key stat: "In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are employed, half of them full-time."

There are flyers circulating and even mailers showing up in people’s mailboxes in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District that list the wrong date for the upcoming special election. Voters are being told to vote on the incorrect day.

My favorite fun Thanksgiving watch! Perfectly grasps the zeitgeist of the holiday: familial bickering, unenthused patriarch, matriarch obsessed with a perfect meal, "relatives" weirdness, inaccurate historical beliefs, ethical dilemmas about Native Americans, etc. www.imdb.com/title/tt0533...
