Hamster & Gretel getting cancelled

Well, that was a bloody nightmare. After ten days, Bluesky has finally retrieved this account and @retiredmascots.bsky.social! I have already set up a backup and will get in touch with anyone who has blocked me when I was compromised. Don’t trust anyone into crypto no matter how legit they may seem!

Email from Bluesky informing me on GMail of @retiredmascots.bsky.social’s restoration. I have also received an email on Mail.com regarding @maxisherealso.bsky.social’s restoration.

Let’s goooooooooo

If you received a DM from this account saying "Hey! ☹️" (which I would never, ever do) or you got as far as receiving a reply about you being impersonated, that was not me.

I was hacked by a stealthy Filipino phishing team, and I should've known better when I was told it was a crypto thing.

India’s Intrusive and Overkill Tobacco Warnings for Streaming Film Content Image: Shutterstock The issue of how to handle smoking in films continues to be a real hot potato in many countries. As the film industry focuses on its responsibility to clearly label content that…

This is something that only occurs when these films hit streaming by the way

Unironically love it in Indian movies when a character is asserting their coolness by smoking a cigarette and the entire time a warning appears on the corner of the screen saying "actually, this is bad"

The Thing's darkened, forlorn face

Please keep making calls to all 4 payment processors

Please keep contacting your congressmen and demanding they oppose KOSA, IODA and the SCREEN act

Democrats and centrist media keep laundering this panic into ‘reasonable concerns’ but the anti-trans movement is overwhelmingly comprised of bigoted loser freaks. We’re missing a huge opportunity to make this a winning issue by pointing that out.

News/Media Alliance Secures Takedown of Illegal Paywall Bypass Website 12ft.io By Staff / July 17, 2025 Arlington, VA – The News/Media Alliance has successfully secured the takedown of notorious paywall bypass website 12ft.io (“12ft Ladder”). The 12ft Ladder website offered illegal circumvention technology that stripped paywalls, allowing users of the technology to access otherwise restricted copyright protected content without paying the required fee. Following the News/Media Alliance’s efforts, the webhost promptly locked 12ft.io on Monday, July 14th. In order to protect its members’ copyrighted content, the News/Media Alliance will continue to take similar actions against other purveyors of unauthorized paywall bypassing technologies. Danielle Coffey, President and CEO of the News/Media Alliance, said, “This takedown is a win for publishers and a win for anyone who cares about quality content. Publishers commit significant resources to creating the best and most informative content for consumers, and illegal tools like 12ft.io undermine their ability to financially support that work through subscriptions and ad revenue. Taking down paywall bypassers is an essential part of ensuring we have a healthy and sustainable information ecosystem.”

News/Media Alliance Statement on Court Ruling Blocking “Click-to-Cancel” By Staff / July 10, 2025 Arlington, VA – On July 8, a federal appeals court blocked the Federal Trade Commission’s pending final implementation of the “Click-to-Cancel” rule, which would have overhauled federal regulations around subscription and membership renewals. This rule, which was set to go into effect on Monday, July 14th, was intended to make it easier for consumers to cancel auto-renewing subscriptions, but ended up overbroad and beyond the FTC’s statutory authority, and needlessly burdened businesses and confused consumers. In response to this ruling, Danielle Coffey, President and CEO of the News/Media Alliance, said: “While the FTC did take many of our recommendations into consideration in its process of drafting the final click-to-cancel rule, concerns remained. The court’s decision to strike the more onerous provisions will allow publishers to implement automatic renewals in a way that both fully protects consumers, including their ability to easily cancel subscriptions, while providing subscribers access to their favorite newspapers and magazines with convenient, easy-to-use options to continue the services they value.”

The News Media Alliance, a trade association of over 2,000 news media orgs, is bragging about the takedown paywall remover 12ft.io. And on 7/10, they celebrated a court ruling that blocked "click-to-cancel," a consumer protection regulation that would have made it easier to cancel subscriptions.

More than 60 Tube staff set to be deported after Government changed immigration rules EXCLUSIVE: Foreign workers who came to London to work for TfL could lose jobs and be forced to leave country, RMT union warns

Skilled immigrants who have worked for TFL for years will be forced to leave the UK because many incomes don't meet the new thresholds and in some cases, their jobs have been removed from the shortage list (presumably because they filled the shortage?)
