Which hacker decided it would be a good idea to ransomware the public library? At least pick a place with money to pay the ransom, jeeez.

This is so aggravating. The museum is now closed because their staff walked out.

Seattle museum staff walk out over exhibit about antisemitism they said ‘conveyed Zionist perspectives’

It never ceases to amaze me people who give one star reviews because the box was opened or damaged. People.. thats not a product problem. Return and exchange it.

Edit: Since this article the staff have walked out in protest of the Jewish portion of the exhibit and the Wing Luke Museum remains closed while the parties meet and discuss the situation.

"A new exhibit opening May 22 at the #WingLukeMuseum of the Asian Pacific American Experience explores how three Seattle communities – Black, Asian-American, and Jewish – have faced prejudice, both in the past and in the face of rising hate crimes today.

Called “Confronting Hate Together,” the exhibit was created as a partnership between the museum, the Washington State #Jewish Historical Society, and the Black Heritage Society of Washington State."

New type of school emergency drill just dropped: toxic gas!

Kids tell me it's like shelter in place for a school shooter, but they use duct tape to cover cracks around windows and doors.

I've been following this very weird post on my "unprotected" account. The one that sees all the racist, antisemitic, misogynist, homophobic shit the fediverse produces in the normal course of the day.

This shithead makes a set of easily verifiably false allegations to try to get rid of a single user account that catalogs antisemitic content in the fediverse.

I read every post the account ever made yesterday. No truth to this at all.

And it spawns conspiracy comments from other users including accusations that this is an Israeli state actor.

What happens when fediblock is misused to target an account that catalogs, with receipts, antisemitism?

Nothing?

Very strange place yall built here.

What's the difference between this and Shitter other than having fewer people of color and Jews?

I encourage everyone to follow @endantisemitism

You may disagree with it occasionally. You may know it gets it wrong occasionally.

What a great opportunity for healthy dialogue and understanding.

#Threads is apparently now connected to the #fediverse; I can see @zuck's posts. Probably good news all around since it means we can interact with Threads users without having to agree to have Zucky as our overlord.

Added “Do not explain capitalism to me” to my bio because apparently that’s something that has to be said.

But seriously people, even if you think you understand capitalism in a way others do not, no conversation not about capitalism has ever been improved by suddenly bringing up capitalism.

My kid thinks it's wildly unfair (and I tend to agree!) that boys can bring their phones to the school formal dance (because pockets) and girls cannot (no pockets).

Searching Internet Archive images section for "Jewish" or "Judaism" brings up page after page after page of antisemitic memes, conspiracy theories, and Holocaust denial. Depressing.

Dinner tonight is chickpea bread soup. I make this regularly and it's a favorite. (I use vegetable stock instead of the beef stock.)
