Interesting ruling from the ART yesterday as a win for X and an anti-trans activist over a post that targeted a trans man that eSafety sought to remove.

The ART basically interpreted that unless you directly @ the person you're posting about, it might not reach the level of eSafety removal powers.

Are we having an election night thread?

Obviously there'll be lots of them, but I'm happy to host one too like we did on twitter last time

@lintonbesser.bsky.social Hey Linton. Nice first outing tonight in the MW hot seat. Just wondering where I can buy one of your mugs. It looks stylish and I’d love to check out the podcast.

The ABC (my employer) needs to stop defending this case against Lattouf and settle - including an apology and reinstatement. They should not have taken her off air in such a manner. Her colleagues stand with her.

Dear Mr. DiGiorno,

Have you ever read one of those terrible literary novels that are, like, set at a small midwestern college, maybe somewhere in Ohio, and the plot is all about a professor whose marriage is falling apart, and then he has a tragically doomed 1/x

Seriously, Mr. DiGiorno, seek help. Consider therapy. It isn’t healthy to be acting like this at your age. And if you refuse, well, at least just stick to what you’re good at. No pizza purveyor has ever gone broke slinging pepperoni.

Sincerely,

Heard from inside the National Cancer Institute, part of NIH — travel through April is canceled. Purchasing with government card is frozen. All public comms are off limits. Can’t even submit abstracts to future meetings. Can’t submit *manuscripts* for publication. All hiring activity frozen. Fuck.
