As I was composing an e-mail to support, I flipped over and checked my Sky reader (thank you @jcsalterego.bsky.social) and voila! the feeds all updated.

Hopefully this presages well for the rest of the day (we got an inch of rain between 8:07 and now, all of my local streets are flooded 🌊).

And, it looks like the Feeds back! I was having problems reaching the website (blueskyfeedcreator.com), and also checking to see if I could see anything in New Zealand (and I couldn't).

It looks like my feed service is crashed; for any Jackals, please use the List instead, until they're back up.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

Since this whole debate is still happening, and since we are still not listening I will summarize what I understand the argument to be in the Lingua Franca of white nerds: Lord of the Rings analogies.
white cis men blocking people of color and other members of vulnerable communities because their risk factor is a lot different than ours is peak white nonsense.

It's also how I know they don't give a shit about us.

Okay I've just received the weirdest scam text so far.
First, it's from a 5 digit #, which is actually a cover for a +251 country code: Ethiopia!
Second, it's the same text (though fucked up in various ways) as a BBB-listed scam e-mail claiming to be from RemX.
Lastly, I went freelance in 1990. 🤡

I do expect the Lege to address this soon, as well.
