I'm a mom, a book fanatic, life-long martial artist, and a Dragon Age dev fan (all the way back to when some of them were making BG1). I've also spent far too much time as a social media researcher. (She/Her)
Solavellan Week 💜

I'm not artistic -- at all. So, here's one of my favorite Solavellan references from DATV.

"He possessed knowledge beyond any mortal yet even the Dread Wolf could not foresee what it would mean to fall in love."

Wild that I just blocked SCOTUSblog because a right-wing outfit bought it recently (don't want to even accidentally boost their metrics).

Losing good, reliable sources to the right-wing-blogosphere sucks.

Interestingly, this was reported May 21, 2017 by Wired. Got very little attention from MSM outlets at the time (pissed me off enough to document it, though!)

The 2017 article: www.wired.com/2017/05/welc...

Old screenshot I took from the article in case anyone is paywalled.

LOL ... I almost never do quizzes like this but decided to give this one a whirl. And, you know what? Perfectly accurate! ❤️‍🔥

My kid crush. He was one of those young actors who ended up all over the Tiger Beat mag covers. :-)

It's VARRIC, DA folks. Brian Bloom. 💜

(This is the oldest pic I could find ... and, fwiw, he and I are about the same age.)

I saw in the replies that you know that Bluesky suspended the targeted-harassment acct (yay!), but thought I'd drop this here for anyone who sees your post late.

This was the account (identifiers are removed by Bluesky - but I had the page up last night so I could keep an eye on it. This is it).

There are truths hidden in old myths.

Giving power to a person or entity by naming them is one. Especially true in the realm of social media, where even hate-posting about a person gives them more popularity via metrics.

Please consider not voluntarily giving them more power.

This is the red-flag filled "Stop the Bots" account.

More examples from just *one* easily identifiable network. And, yes, all of the examples are different accts (and they're just a few from a fairly large network).

I documented a bunch more but hopefully this is enough to give you the idea.

Your platform is already flooded. Please do better.

While you're attempting to squelch fires, you should consider that a bunch of those 12M are fake accts from fake networks.

Many are easily identifiable (see examples) & many are already posting political content while falsely inflating metrics (including yours).

E.g. of easily identifiable:

We could play spot-the-tells on why this account is clearly fake ... but this is exhausting.

Just, please, pay attention to your follows/following.

(Yes, I reported the account ... hopefully BlueSky will be more interested in getting rid of fakes than the hellsite was.)

Yep. If anyone wants to see them, I've included some screenshots below. Nuhre has been trying to monetize for yrs. She tweeted pro-drag, pro-trans in the past. Then, with DAV, she ran w/ far right talking points & was boosted by rat-guy (Asmon). She's been riding his coattails since.
