and they misunderstood the question and asked for details on a non-existent publisher. Instead of making the publisher or fixing my account, they put me on a timeout because they tried to validate a domain for a publisher that doesn’t exist!!! because of an error on my account!!!!!
the linked marketplace policy violation goes to a tutorial on domain verification on a publisher: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/publishing-extension#verify-a-publisher


but if the publisher doesn’t exist, then how can you verify the domain?

filling out the publisher form and unable to press create because of a mysterious flag that says “publisher metadata has suspicious content”

guess i’m going greyscale until it’s over! and changed some of these settings. it makes folders look bad though so i might need to reorganize my home screen
in accessibility-> display and text size. toggle show borders, reduce transparency, increase contrast, and differentiate without color

union busting, apparently
Screenshot of an email whose text reads: 
“Dear Faculty:
 
I am writing to you concerning an effort I learned about to unionize SVA’s faculty.  
 
I have not been approached by a union, or any faculty members interested in unionizing, about what changes those SVA faculty would like to see, or to ask what SVA’s plans are for the future.  I want to make sure you have all the facts before casting a vote that could significantly (and negatively) impact you, as well as SVA’s work environment and culture, with no guarantee of any positive changes.  
 
I encourage you to get all the information you can.  Don’t take the union’s word—or mine—without checking the facts for yourself.  
 
Over the course of the next week or so I will be sharing facts with you about unionization, along with references to information you can check for yourself, about the implications for you and SVA of a unionized faculty.  It’s important you know these facts before you consider signing a union card or voting on unionization.”
second screenshot continuing the previous email with the following content:

“The union will make plenty of promises or guarantees about wages, benefits, and terms of employment, but you should understand that no union can deliver on these promises without SVA agreeing to them through the collective bargaining process.  For example, the College has been bargaining for nearly two years with Local 306 that represents the theatre technicians who work at the SVA Theatre; to date there is no agreement.  Affiliating with a union does not immediately translate to an agreement.
 
I am aware a number of SVA faculty have been badgered and harassed by union organizers, including entering classrooms while class is in session, following faculty members to the restrooms, and employing other pressure tactics, to sign a union card.  Some have resisted these efforts, but others signed a card because they felt pressured to do so.
 
If you signed a union card, you have the legal right to withdraw it by sending the union a note in
writing saying you want to withdraw it.  You need not take my word for it; you can Google it,
and you’ll easily find information about how that works.”third and final screenshot of the email with the following content:

“It’s also important to note that if the union were to prevail in an NLRB election over whether it represents SVA faculty, all SVA faculty members (i.e., “the bargaining unit”) would be bound by what the union negotiates, and everyone will have to pay dues if a contract is reached.  There is no opting out of either union representation or the obligation to pay dues.  My understanding is most unions charge dues of about two percent of employees’ pay.
 
 
Sincerely,
 
David Rhodes
President”
