Instagram and Facebook have recently blurred, blocked or removed posts from two abortion pill providers. Instagram also suspended the accounts of several abortion pill providers and hid the providers from appearing in search and recommendations. nyti.ms/4h3PF1x

Best of luck!!

This is how you do it...

Trump Demands Bishop Apologize for Asking for Mercy for the Marginalized Donald Trump demanded an apology from Washington National Cathedral Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde after she asked him to show mercy to the marginalized.

If someone asking a powerful person to show kindness to those without power offends your Christianity, your Christianity would offend Jesus.

Bezos spiked the Washington Post editorial endorsing Harris, saying that the paper needed to stay neutral to maintain the trust of its readership.

Now the Washington Post editorial board is out with a piece urging Congress to rubber stamp nearly all of Trump's cabinet nominees

Hogfather million to one chance search Hi everyone, this is a huge longshot but wondering if any of you lovely folk might be able to help. My partner just told me that her dad (who sadly died more than 20 years ago) gave her a hardback copy of Hogfather, but it got lost in one of her moves not long after he died. I doubt we'd ever find it, but it would be an amazing New Year miracle if we could discover it and I could buy it back if it's still out there. It's signed in the front cover "To Anthea" and probably says from Dad or similar. Like I say, it's a million to one chance... Thanks for reading.

Copied (with permission) from a discworld group I’m in if anyone can help even if it’s just a share

PSA to Melbourne women, particularly those in the south eastern suburbs.

Be aware of a Caucasian male in a plateless grey sedan following women. It appears he may be using air tags to track vehicles.

Multiple incidents have been reported to police.

lol what is this shit

everyone's like "ohhh stay and engage with different opinions" like fartlover3485434 is listening to anything I have to say after calling me a slur

Watch this.
Show it to your sons. Misogyny and patriarchy are rising. Every time a student disrupted, disrespected, or threatened me, it was a white male. At my diverse urban university, they faced consequences: tossed out until they apologized. Women, stand in your power.

Academic authors 'shocked' after Taylor & Francis sells access to their research to Microsoft AI Authors claim they have not been told about the AI deal, were not given the opportunity to opt out and are receiving no extra payment.

Can report there is still no opt-out. I'm part of a team of #milhist scholars that has voided its contract for a 4th ed of American Military History with Routledge because T&F sold out to Microsoft rather than protect its authors' IP. 🗃️ #academicsky www.thebookseller.com/news/academi...

I would like one job from the job factory please.

Public blocking lists on Bluesky are rapidly becoming the online equivalent of Maoist struggle sessions reply: They're already doing that shit here too? My god they love building their little walled gardens

*thousands work together to block Nazis and leave them alone*

rando: wow, this is just like a violent mob

Don't make me tap the sign

The first day off I take, our custom deployment tool that I inherited from the last developers stopped working.

IT removed .net 7 from the server without checking if it was used.

It’s not like I have enough on my backlog let’s add that too I guess.

I’m having to write documentation for a former colleagues work.

While bug fixing it.

Not enough floppy drives

First full day off in four months, I am exhausted.

Umm wrong tag friend.

Tips for moving from Xitter to Bluesky Before you start following people, fill out your profile! Bio, PFP, banner, and post at least 5 to 10 things. Just reuse your top 10 banger tweets—recycling is encouraged! This way, when people see you followed them and they check your profile, they’ll know what you are about and might follow back. Turn off NSFW filters in Moderation > Content Filtering Find your friends using a tool like skeet.labnotes.org or Sky Follower Bridge. Not perfect, but they’ll find the majority of the people you were following. Turn on “show posts from my feeds” in Settings > Home Feed Preferences. This will add random posts from them to your main feed, but tweaked to your liking, no ads and BS. I recommend the Catch Up feed (kinda like a “best of”). Tweak Reply Filters to something that works for you, also at Settings > Home Feed Preferences. This shows replies from people you follow to anyone else on your main feed...

Frequently, lack of times a factor.
I'm full time bug fixing issues our contracts left us with.

Inclusion of disabled people in education is one of the great triumphs, even if it’s partial and contested form, of modern education. And a certain kind of academic despises this advance.

That razor pages app is 3 years old, and I’m actively prohibited from adding anything new.

We have a razor pages app for a few of our projects.

Mostly we dump all our logic into hang fire jobs for integration with 3rd party apis and wonder why the 3rd party “service” doesn’t do what we want.

I've never known anything like it.
