I just counted again: 252 bogus chat requests have been sent from my account by the hacker. I reported the bot 4 days ago. Bsky has gotten back twice with formulaic responses, but so far no actual help. In an effort to stop this, I am signing out and deactivating my account. I will miss you all.

Wow. So many reasons to hate the asshole.

The random dudes are fiercely defending themselves. And now they're having identity crises so they can consume even more of our attention. Everything everywhere is all about them.

Hi folks, Still no joy from bsky on the hack of my account. Only 4 new chats have been sent today, so it is slowing. I AM NOT SENDING THEM. My chat settings have been and are turned off. Just ignore any chat from this account. It's an evil bot. Thanks for your kindness. Sorry for the drama.🌹

🍿 🍿 🍿 And we're watching to see who's on whose payroll. Depending on whose agenda they endorse, follow the money! But of course VOTE EVERY RETHUGLICAN OUT.

President Crockett!!!! No nonsense about birtherism. Straight up, all-American name that cannot be confused with a terrorist's. Beautiful, articulate, all woman. The song writes itself! Jasmine, Jazzzmine Crockett, queen of the wild frontier!! (You have to be mega-old to get this reference.)

Thank you, Governor. Thank you for standing up for us amidst the federal nonsense going on. I'm so glad you're my Governor!!!

Jacinda Ardern...remember her? You probably have seen her recent media tour, but just in case not: The former Prime Minister of New Zealand, the one who saw them through the pandemic and got assault weapons banned after their FIRST mass shooting, has a new book out.

He's been quoting Putin talking points FOR YEARS. There is substantial data indicating he is a Russian asset. That needs to be e plowed now. You have a very strong voice. TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH. Please!!!

And we do have *a lot* to apologize for. I quibble with "one of." My wording would be: THE FACT THAT 75 MILLION US CITIZENS VOTED FOR TR MP A SECOND TIME IS THE MOST HARROWING EXPERIENCE IN HISTORY FOR THE REST OF US.

Please publicize the shit out of the self driving crashes.

Can we please have a UN Commission on the Gaza genocide? The accused should include the US (70% of weapons) and Germany (30% of weapons) and Israel itself.

As usual, spot on, MS Kohut!

Elizabeth Warren is my hero!

YESSSSsssss!!!!!

Thank you for posting it completely. I love a well-written judicial opinion! (Which is why I really hate Justice Alito as much as a Buddhist can hate anyone.)

Yesss!

G'night, dear BlueSky fam. Today was Day Three of the bot hack on my account. So I'm turning in a bit early. I wish you a lovely rest of the evening, a thoroughly refreshing sleep, and a beautiful morning filled with love. And excellent coffee!

Sorry to repeat this, but it is still going on. MY ACCOUNT HAS BEEN HACKED. A bot of some sort is sending out chat requests that seem to be from my account. I am not sending them. Blsky is working on the fix. Please don't interact with them. Think of them as radioactive Nigerian Prince emails.

I am saddened to see the Guardian falling prey to this unbecoming bullshit. Even reporting that Tr mp has done this is a disservice to the world.

And an excellent choice. Bravo!

True dat.

Yessss!!!

I'm not really convinced they voted *for Tr mp.* It seemed more like they voted for the man. Or vaguely man-shaped Hutt. No woman for President! Especially not a woman able to smile, and dance, and create good policy, with an IQ roughly twice that of the male candidate, and 100 times the maturity.

Absolutely fantastic!!!! Thank you for posting this.

Thank you, O GrouchyMarkx

I have no idea what you mean by this. In what way did the far left reject you? What actual, real life event occurred that you are talking about? As I don't identify with either of those labels, who is an example of center left and who is far left? And why does your post sound vaguely threatening?

I always have such mixed feelings when talented people like her quit. I'm so glad they don't need to live with the corruption. But the good people are so valuable, so it's terrifying that they're gone. All the best people ...are leaving.

Volodomir Zelinskyy is kicking serious butt without us. I think the drone campaign was the D-Day of the 21st century. Complex, beautifully executed, and a shattering success against their enemy.

This is very good news.

Still more is going on. Aaagh!

Apparently, this is still going on. Sorry! MY ACCOUNT HAS BEEN HACKED. My followers are getting chat requests from my account. I AM NOT SENDING THEM. Please don't click on them. It's possible that deleting them may spread the bot. I deleted the first 30 one by one and that may have made it worse.

Indeed!

We. Need. A. JUNTA!!!!

When are they going to include the COST of the cuts? I am quite sure that $9b has *not* been cut, when you factor in contract penalties, rehiring costs, food rotting on piers, and the many MANY, *MANY* lawsuits that will be brought against the government from actions of spoilt child & his minions.

Awwww. I didn't feel that. I remember being excited, because, as a woman, I officially became invisible on that day. Too bad I still looked in my twenties, because assholes still pestered me on the daily.

BlueSky, please fix the hack on my account. There are 150 chat responses in my inbox, and new people think the bot is from me. When they click on the chat they will probably pass it on. THE CHATS ARE NOT FROM ME. I have been HACKED. I have reported it & blsky is allegedly working on fixing it.

"All men" didn't include women. Black Lives Matter DOES include women. We are tired of having "all men" allegedly include women, because it never has.

This is a must-read free article from the author. Thank you, Sarah Kendzior, for your haunting words.

This is WONDERFUL on do many levels!!!!

Can the SEC do ANYthing about bogus crypto? Seems like it should be in their wheelhouse.

This is such great news. Hopefully Lindsay Graham will be booted, too. (I'm trying not to feel any pain from the fact that a man did so much better than Kamala did.)

Ah, yes. Republicans used to be so great, didn't they. Anytime you hear someone say, "moderate Republican" just know they're talking about a mythical creature.

Since this has been going on in every state, I'm grateful that DC is--once again--leading the way in resolving horrendous behavior by our greed-driven economy.

This is the correct way to express it.

I got an email from BlueSky management. They have received my request for help with the hack on my account. Until then, I wish you a restful evening, a peaceful sleep, and loving people to greet your day tomorrow. (People includes pets, of course.) To start, here's something from a watercolorist:

One last time...
