#mastoadmins Hey, if your mastodon instance uses letsencrypt, there could be some issues going ahead.
https://letsencrypt.org/2020/11/06/own-two-feet.html
You may very well need to badger the hell out of your certificate provider, masto.host would be the one to do it on if you use their service.
Even if you don't use letsencrypt this could cause issues with federating with other instances. Anyway, good adminining
block recommendation (spam instances, right-wing agitprop, antivax, etc)
A group known as "fightbigtech" has been creating a ton of spammy instances full of rightwing agitprop.
Here's a list of the ones I could find:
- tweety.icu
- katiehopkinspolitical.icu
- voicenews.icu
- antivaxxer.icu
- theduran.icu
- censorship.icu
- political.icu
I would recommend general suspicion of any .icu domain, seeing as they're cheap — don't autoblock them, but perhaps check their content if they show up.
GOD THIS BOT FUCKING RULES
THE TEAM CAPTAIN IS TRANS AND SHE'S NAMED LILLITH AND SHE BUILT THE BOT MOSTLY BY HERSELF IN ONE MONTH
IT HAS THE NEW WEAPON TYPE "SPORK"
I think everyone should take time out to question their gender and actively make that choice. Yes, even cis people. IMO, actively choosing the be cis should be encouraged, rather than just seen as the default.
hey y'all should watch this video about the CIA. mostly because youtube took it down almost immediately, and the creator got a visit from DHS about the "anti-american content" in the video.
re: food mentions, absolute nonsense

re: food mentions, absolute nonsense

food mentions, absolute nonsense
"Big Sal's Pizza" and everyone assumes it's run by some, guy who is called Sal who is either Italian or pretends to be but no it's actually run by a fuckin monster of an eight to ten foot tall bear, because the "Big" part is literal.
but the bear makes the BEST fuckin' pizza ever because they are proud of their art and wouldn't dare serve or sell ANYTHING they wouldn't enjoy putting in their own mouth.
Thinking of making a podcast, I'll call it "Evil Bi-Weekly" and once every two weeks I'll discuss villain stuff with an expert in the field, (aka me with a funny voice,) this week: Capes, are they just for heroes? How to clash with your enemies look! And over in the gadget lab, Dr P.S.I tells us the importance of not overlooking the small details of our costumes.
abuse, forgiveness, personal mental health+
People who insist that forgiveness is a necessary component of healing from trauma are projecting. Either they're an abuser themselves, and don't want to imagine themselves as unforgivable; or they're the type of person who needs this catharsis to let go of their anger and resentment, and they assume it works that way for everyone else. It doesn't. If that works for you, go for it, but I'm much happier having worked this stuff out on my own and with my therapist than I would have been trying to awkwardly salvage a relationship that was always harmful for me.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
