Don't really love bluesky mods saying they want a better place at the same time they add moderation labels to people complaining about antisemitism instead of moderating the antisemites themselves. A pattern that's been repeating for other minorities for a while.

One of the reasons that people defending using "Pharisee" as an insult bother me so much is that they think they are being so very clever (when they are not). And this has a couple of problems: 1/5

Charles Xavier: My school helps mutants control their powers. This is Cyclops, he was my first student and he is totally incapable of controlling his powers. This is Jean Grey, she started with Scott. She also cannot control her powers. And meet Rogue, yep you guessed it, can't control her powers

Poet who is not creative enough to avoid leaning on antisemitic clichés (such as Pharisee as a pejorative) thinks that Jews who call her out on her antisemitism somehow in favor of the atrocities in Gaza. Also almost Binyamin's Law.

I recently was in a conversation where someone said that they like getting new cooking recipes but really they prefer when they get "tutorials" so they know how to make the food dish. Isn't the definition of "recipe" a tutorial? I.e. detailed instructions on how to prepare the dish?

Hey coding dorks, my 11 year old spontaneously got super into the javascript stuff on khan academy, mostly because it let her draw stuff. Might be just a phase but... is there a good path that connects increasing programming skill to animation and/or robots? Like, the coding equivalent of crafting.

Shana Tovah, may we have the opportunity to do better, and take those opportunities. May we have good things happen to us and be able to enjoy them. And may we the will and ability to make good things happen to others.

You're confusing “this thing from my bible SHOULDN'T result in violence” w/ “this thing from my bible CAN'T result in violence”, thinking that “this thing HASN'T resulted in violence”. Conveniently ignoring 2k years worth of evidence that “this thing KEEPS RESULTING in violence”.

Shaná Tova to the inappropriate parasocial relationships I have here. I will work on being less weird. This is a sub skeet, in furtherance of said work.

This tells me that there are some omissions from my geologist friend's "I found a coprolite!" story.

I've seen a lot of people on here in the past day or so repeat the line of "Arabs are Semites, too, so anti-Arab racism is also a form of antisemitism." This is and understandable mistake, given how weird the word is, but it's a misunderstanding of the word.

nobody wants to debate you because what you're saying is dumb.

Hi everyone, guess I'll start. I really liked Every Breaking Wave Sure you're in the right place? This is the book club meeting Well I listened to U2's Songs of Innocence, I'll be ok That's something else Why? They both have words You don't know anything about the topic I got it on my iPhone

This weekend the Jewish community in my hometown celebrated its 100th anniversary. It was great. No, incredible!

Ah. Luke Skywalker. Drinks raw milk, then dies at work.

Notable that this is (1) Jeep, who already has had security breaches bad enough that made it possible for remote takeover of driving functions. And (2) ads are known virus and security breach vectors. Why is someone at Jeep proposing "why not both"? www.wired.com/2015/07/hack...

Incredible that a lot of people respond to advocating for better education about 'religions' with one of - Yes I DO want this because *bigoted reasons* or - No I DO NOT want this because *bigoted reasons*

CW antisemitism. "The child of 2 Jews is a demon with horns" is a shitty thing to say even if the intended targets are terrible people. Reconsider this shit.

A better outcome than Mexico's Emos vs Goths+Punks fight.

Similarly, they can't conceive that gentiles can be supportive of Jews, so the only explanation for gentiles fighting antisemitism is that they're being controlled (in a variety of ways) by Jews.

Best lesson I ever learned was always ALWAYS document the code with the assumption that the poor dumb bastard debugging it in six months has never seen it before, especially if you know with _absolute certainty_ that this person will be you.

Indeed. And a good code-review will include checking the documentation.

Recently I mentioned that I wanted some Star Trek story with Vulcans who are bad at logic. This week's Strange New Worlds is sort of this (4.5 vulcans); yet I didn't enjoy it. I guess I'm growing tired of the "logic vs. emotions" plot device; but also the episode took too many shortcuts.

You're so ואין you probably think this Talmud is about you don't you.

Is there a way to reactivate an expired word mute in BlueSky's moderation settings? Or do I have to add it again from scratch?
