Joined an American tourist Facebook group for my own amusement. It is not disappointing me. Lots of people debating whether it’s safe to visit Europe due to the war in the Middle East.

BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadn’t posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was β€œspam” and that it was β€œcausing harm.” What kind of logic is this?

The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us.

Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as β€œviolations of community standards,” as if pain itself has become a crime.

What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful.

[the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.]

palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.

Ignore the smears: I was never a close friend of Peter Mandelson. And I fully understand the lessons we must learn

Wes Streeting

I knew him but not well, and worry now that he thrived in our political culture. It was not just failed vetting: there was a failure of moral seriousness

It’s practically a work of art that he thinks we’re all that stupid.

When Anas Sarwar says, β€œmy country, Scotland,” why does his delivery and intonation sound remarkably like the owner of Rebecca’s Pink Rainbow Chinese Restaurant in Kirkcaldy?

Sarwar calling an old-school press conference one thing, doing so to call the PM to resign over Mandelson when you met him after it all came out is another.

Cat is hungry. Cat screams for snack. Snack is given. Cat wolfs it down. Cat pukes everywhere.

It’s great to wake up in the morning and have to trawl through the internet to see what fuckery the President of the US has been up to.

Urgh. There was meant to be a video attached, as opposed to a morbid joke.

Turns out my own joke is so old that people are accusing me of plagiarism.
