#Fediblock I've been using the block the IP tool since this new spam attacks seem to come from one IP until that one is blocked then they switch it up I guess? Do others have tips on how to block this spam attack? We set our server so everyone must fill […] [Original post on disabled.social]

Whoever is doing this, I hope they get kicked into the sun or step on Legos for the rest of their lives. This has clogged up the new member application feed. I've had to suspend these IP addresses which somewhat helps, but I'll have to go reject/suspend all […] [Original post on disabled.social]
Screenshot of the new member application screen for moderators. However, there is nothing but bot probe signups clogging the feed.

Star demands pets. No one can enter or leave without paying the 'pet Star' tax. She will hound until she gets that pet.

I love it when bots line up perfectly.
The Carmen Sandiego bot says, "Oh, No! Carmen Sandiego has stolen your car!" and directly under it is the Endless Screaming not who says, " Aaaaaaaaahhhh." They lined up perfectly.

Perfect Loaf. #Cats #Caturday
An orange kitty sits with paws and legs tucked under to form a perfect kitty loaf. Cat puzzles sit next to her, all of them solved and treats inside eaten.

I love it when the bots line up perfectly in my feed:
A screenshot of Carmen Sandiego's post that reads: "Oh No! Carmen Sandiego has stolen your parking spot!" Directly under it is the Endless Screaming bot who posted: "Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh." The juxtaposition of the two in the timeline was humorous.

Star is hard to nab a picture of as she keeps headbutting for pers. She's 15 and diabetic. Her buddy Nebula died at age 12 three weeks ago. Nebula died of the same cancer as Quark. So both Star and myself are still grieving. When I adopted Star and Nebula […] [Original post on disabled.social]

Ahhhh, first time ever doing digital coloring. This took me over a month. I had to do most of it by mouse as my pen tablet (it's a hand-me-down and old) refused to play nice. I think I'll go back to handdrawn though. I like the feel of pencils, pens, and […] [Original post on disabled.social]

Update. Due to my #fediblock post, he's now resorted to DM's to harass. This is the new account. His 'attempts' to diversify his tactics is failing. What a pathetic human being. Keep reporting and suspending.

Under his post is a picture that includes a list of words for "Democrats to avoid" such as privilege, critical theory, triggering, cultural appropriation, heteronormative, LGBTQIA, cisgender, microaggressions, food insecurity, patriarchy, incarcerated people, and involuntary confinement. These are words that describe the harmful systems that impact marginalized people's lives.

[USpol describing Musk's thefts] Musk is stealing federal data and demanding access to the treasury. This is illegal, hostile takeover and theft of resources, data, and money. He's not doing this to make the government efficient. He's doing it to destroy […] [Original post on disabled.social]
Alt National Park Service post reads: "Elon Musk staff has been caught installing hard drives inside the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Treasury Department, and the General Services Administration (GSA). His staff encountered resistance when demanding that Treasury officials grant access to systems managing the flow of more than $6 billion annually to programs like Social Security and Medicare. Tensions escalated when Musk's aides were discovered at OPM accessing systems, including a vast database known as the Enterprise Human Resources Integration (EHRI), which contains sensitive information such as dates of birth, Social Security numbers, performance appraisals, home addresses, pay grades, and length of service for employees. In response to employees speaking out, Musk's aides locked civil servants out of computer systems and offices with reports of personal items beings searched."
