Why is Sarah Kendzoir, an author and journalist who covers authoritarian regimes, suspended on bluesky?
Even X and substack haven’t suspended her.
So much for “Bring your own algorithm”. This is a fail for Bluesky.

We are quickly sliding past the era when you could find info on YouTube on how to fix almost anything.
YouTube search results are now full of AI slop repair videos that help no one.
An opportunity for ifixit or instructables to own this space perhaps.

![Comic. [Person sitting at desk with laptop with machine labeled E-21 making “click click” noises on the floor behind] VOICE FROM LAPTOP: Hey all! Does your E-21 humidifier make an annoying clicking noise? Mine did, but I finally figured out that there’s an easy fix, so I made this video in case anyone else… PERSON AT DESK: Oh my god. Yes. *Yes.* [caption] I know there’s more important work in the world, but I feel like these people deserve, at minimum a statue.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cz73r7iyiqn26upot4jtjdhk/bafkreifdjde6wgflkeil7kf4kdh3zqk32k55rkljlwu6arzbw557ogbulu@jpeg)

I love that Mamdani is what the right claimed Obama was: A Muslim socialist born in Africa. The right practically manifested Mamdani into existence.

I didn’t believe this would work but I grabbed one of these flags before crossing the street and it actually makes a difference in getting cars to stop for you!
The marigolds are part of a memorial for neighbor who was killed in a hit and run here.

Crosswalk flags by safestreetsbernal.org at the intersection where a neighbor was killed in a hit and run. Grab a flag from one side of the crosswalk and leave it at the other.
When things get this bad we probably need more safety infrastructure than diy flags, but maybe it helps…

My take on Rogan is that Spotify users are partially responsible for the global rise of deadly anti-vax nonsense and the resurgence of measles in America, and if you send me a Spotify link I will judge you as someone helping make the world a worse place.
Joe Rogan is confusing measles with chicken pox

Lime has figured a way around Lyft’s regulated monopoly on Bike Share in the Bay Area! They simply took the pedals off their e-bike and called it a “Glider”.

There is a SFBA Bench Collective bench at the bus stop near my house. It is constantly being used during the day, but sometimes gets tagged.
Rustoleum “Warm Carmel” spray paint is a good way to keep these clean and keep them from being reported to the city. It dries completely in 20 min.

What are these non-standard colors on this large flag? Why is the “War Department” not using DDD-F-416E? Why do they not know what our flag is supposed to look like?
And after 40 minutes of cringe-Thunderous applause from the generals!
Just kidding. Total silence. 👀 🦗 🦗

The #NoTechForICE movement started in 2018, during the first Trump administration’s illegal separation of refugee children from their parents.
Unfortunately, few tech workers paid attention to the evil their tools were enabling. The AI-powered next generation of these tools is now being sold to ICE

With Star Wars and Marvel and Pixar and all the kid franchises, it feels impossible to stop spending money on Disney, but it’s not.
As I wrote in 2020 on the other site: Disney is an immoral company, and always has been.
