uni 

fucking uni not having their info/shit together just going "oopsie" but punishing students hard when it happens to them is so infuriating

i know just enough kdenlive and blender to know I *can* actually make the shitpost I came up with and then spend way too much time on it

followed some and some more productivity coach types, yuck

i guess that's still kind of a lot, because that's only counting accounts the server actually knew, before suspending them or their instance. would have to make a script that fetches instance user counts to see how many users the blocklist truly covers

meta, mastodon.la, bigotry, instance block rec 

LB (colorid.es/@Aster/109848839304): So I've recently learned someone from the mastodon.la staff has made a huge, absurd thread around a month ago weaponizing social issues such as widespread hunger and fossil fuel use against people who "instead" talk about sexual education, transmisia and queermisia (mastodon.la/@SeverianX/1096488).

It contains garbage such as "it seems like the new strategy is directly the criminalization of heterosexual and 'cis' desire" and "according to the new narrative, those who don't accept that a man dressed as a woman 'is really a woman' or those who insist you can't be attracted to someone of the same sex as yours even if they dress as if they were of the opposite sex are immoral".

Some of their allies are trying to spin this into "some Spanish instances are blocking and brigading against a Latin American instance". I don't think this is a good excuse to avoid blocking mastodon.la.

SeverianX also has many alt accounts on other instances.

re: meta, mastodon.la, bigotry, instance block rec 

@stardust also worth of note that the admin has a pinned post with the instance rules (barely) that are the same old freeze peachy stuff.. (mastodon.la/@SeverianX/1095031)
