Lmao, I open up my old email account, and the first thing I see is a RECENT email from my least favorite art professor, the one who taught "advanced drawing" as a conceptual class because they were more interested in videography
They forced everyone in the class to sign up to their mailing list, way way back in 2010
So it's about their new art show and ends it with "Love, Firstname Lastname" like this mass email is to their closest personal friends and family.
I fucking can't.
instance administration, block recommendation
Two instances to cancel today, both running Pleroma, both pretending to be something they aren't:
yang.social (the moderator follows users on only two instances, both of which are already banned for white supremacy, and the supposed "Yang" account is friendly with Gab users)
blob.cat (my first interaction with them was them asking what my point was in a post that ended with a sentence like "my point is someone could probably compile a list of Google accounts used by nazis" and the only public post I could see from their instance was them complaining about being banned by scholar.social, saying that they had received no reports, which is something that has happened a lot in the past for instances run by those sorts of "free speech extremists")
@troubleMoney I just bought an x220! A lot of people love the keyboard, so I decided to opt for it instead of the x230, to see what they're talking about.
Welp, Twitter is actively censoring and selectively blocking Left-associated accounts from targeted political threads now.
So that's cool.
Main account: thread won't load, "over capacity" error.
Alt account: thread loads fine, commenting works fine, no errors
Confirmed by hundreds of users.
This is a great sign and definitely not a prelude to anything we should worry about. Nope.
