US Department of Agriculture says no food aid benefits will be issued next month reut.rs/3WohHMk

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

We’ve already seen quite a few examples of ICE agents trying to kidnap someone and eventually giving up and running away because a crowd had gathered and shouted them down. That’s EFFECTIVE.

So cool to be able to let users signal their data preferences, and in a protocolized way so that all ATProto apps can reuse it. It’s a great fit for us with semble.so and we’re planning to incorporate it there!

We quietly launched support for facets extraction and rendering in event descriptions. There are some limits, but mention, tag, and link facets are all supported.

This should be seen as what it is: a huge step towards ending free and fair elections.

Let's start monthly gratitude movement. Join me at the end of each month to recognize and uplift each other. Could be an endorsement on atwork.place or a post with #Gratitude.

Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva has still not been sworn in four weeks after her win. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is suing House Speaker Mike Johnson, citing “taxation without representation.”

But seriously: we are fighting their negativity and xenophobia with a positive ideas-driven campaign. Every time I see a negative ad, I make a small donation to a local non-profit: the Oakwood Inclusion Coalition www.oakwoodic.org

We’re hosting a small gathering of ATProto Community Sessions in Montreal, alongside #IETF124 - Nov 2nd IETF Hackathon (Sunday) - Nov 3rd Community Coworking & Evening Social - Nov 4th Community Coworking - Nov 5th First ATProto IETF BoF More in the forum #ATProto_MTL

Every ATProto developer, eventually:

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

why the hell are they confirming trump's judges when trump's speaker of the house won't swear in Grijalva?

Wake up, babe, the least subtle visual metaphor in history just dropped

Join us on Nov 6 for our inaugural meetup!

This is amazing. Stop threatening me with a really good time @sndorf.bsky.social #VoteDorf

Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor. According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

I love that things that we're building internally at <Super Not Secret New_ Public Project> are being validated daily in the wider Atmosphere. This is [roughly] how we're handling pre-moderation, and I'm impressed daily by how easy it is to add behaviours to our system with atproto.

The company, which provides cybersecurity defenses to most of the Fortune 500, said the DOJ allowed it to delay notifying the public on national security grounds.

Quick Tip: Don’t want people getting pinged when you post or reply? You can turn that off by heading to: Settings → Privacy and Security → Allow others to be notified of your posts and toggling it off.

I want to learn more about how content goes from the PDS on create / put record events to the firehose. Anyone have any reference code, tutorials, or examples that breaks down the process at a technical level? I want to really get into the nitty gritty technical details. #ATProtocol #ATDev
