@roxy@chitter.xyz I think my Mom has sometimes wanted to ask me about coming up with a lil animal person for herself. She feels like she’d be a raccoon or an otter, and I half-considered asking her if she wanted a commission for Mother’s Day

@Tealfuleyes@mastodon.art Did something happen in the last two days? I know during the middle of the week they announced no more physical games starting 2028, but was there anything else new to add to that pile of garbo?

Listened to some jazz on the radio on the way home and it was really relaxing, as well. Not smooth jazz stuff, but like, classic jazz from the SiriusXM that we have the family plan for. Will have to link to some of the songs in a bit, after I eat and get other stuff done here at the house.

@Charlotte@arielfinn.social Oh snap, glad that it's coming out this soon! I thought we were going to have to wait for like, September.

@noondlyt I do want to add though. It could be a mix of vibe coding and the site being inundated with bots that might’ve all chosen now to blow a gasket. I screenshotted this from earlier this afternoon when I was checking on a thread that actually loaded. It may have been a one-off glitchy spambot reply to this one person, but I don’t want to rule out “Bluesky is overloaded with botspam” as an additional factor.

@Zwiebelprinz@mastodon.art Sherlock Hound so good

@evacide@hachyderm.io remember that time y’all wrung y’all’s hands about an ISP using its First Amendment freedom of association to refuse to associate with a hate site that’s responsible for the deaths of multiple people? https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/08/isps-should-not-police-online-speech-no-matter-how-awful-it

@puppygirlhornypost2@transfem.social @evacide@hachyderm.io the acceptable use policy of H.E. was violated and H.E. shoulda been able to show KF the door without people acting like what H.E. did was bad. Everything about the EFF being a part of this “Protect The Stack” initiative, and the “Protect The Stack” initiative forming just a few months after CloudFlare dropped KF, and then almost a year later, the EFF clutching its pearls over a clear-cut freedom-of-association case, has left me very wary of if I can actually count the EFF as an ally that’ll stick up for me & others when it counts. Y’know, like when there are websites whose entire main goal is to goad marginalized people into taking their own lives.

@puppygirlhornypost2@transfem.social @FinalOverdrive@kolektiva.social One of my big issues with the EFF is that @eff@mastodon.social would wail and gnash their teeth if any government decided to grow a pair and step in, with the EFF giving the excuse that places like KF have people on side boards talking about regular protected speech such as sports or the latest episode of an anime or whatever, even though the main thrust of the site that has the tacit endorsement of the site owner, is the targeting innocent marginalized people and goading them into ending their own lives.
