the Orange Thing's adminisration has found its way to bluesky. so many new accounts to block.

thanks for the image @kingdomfantasy6.bsky.social
A facebook style text meme that says, "The original bluesky ethos: Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights, block and move on. The American right are trolls. Don't feed the trolls. Don't give them a fight. Make Bluesky boring for them." then in teeny tiny font, "-Said a user who wants tech to be fun again". The background is a light blue gradient with rainblow splotches.

so... they ended the chat before i could ask who i *should* contact. i feel like the lack of an answer WAS, in fact, an answer.

damn it, Spotify
(screenshot of customer support chat with Spotify) support: Hi there! My name is Felipe! I see you want to know about Ads from ICE on Spotify. Is this correct? me: yes, i would like to know if what I'm seeing online is true me: also, hi, Felipe! (screenshot of customer support chat with Spotify) support: Hi, (name redacted), allow me one moment. me: no problem support: (name redacted), regarding this, we don't have any more information to share, but we'll be here if you need help with anything else. me: how do you not have any information to share? (screenshot of customer support chat with Spotify) me: how do you not have any information to share? you either have, or have not, run recruitment ads for ICE support: I'm afraid this isn't something customer service can help with. Unless you have a technical or payment issue, I'll be ending this chat (message: End of conversation. You can close the messaging window now.)
