also I unblocked the instance wehavecookies.social because they appear to have cleared their spam out and be on top of it now. still irritated at people foolish enough to have an open signup policy but whatever at least they're dealing with it responsibly.

ok upgrading these posts to "unlisted" so other shrikes can see them. there's a big spam flood on the fediverse rn and I'm trying to whack instances with hammers when they pop up.

if this continues to be a problem I may follow this advice: wehavecookies.social/@paul@old however, a bunch of the spam reported over the last few days DOES NOT follow this format so I'm a little iffy on it being worthwhile?

please send in reports if you're getting spam notifications so we can do more instance blocks.

here's a couple of warmups, a sketch of @lunalapin and a... now very topical illustration of Regs and Tres Leches from Legions

The Perfectly Generic Podcast's bonus show, [I]ntermission, returns from the grave, completely naked of context, slippery and hairless. Kate Mitchell invades Zoe's Patreon to walk around town with her and discuss the evil cast of That 70's Show, Seattle's world-class Cyclist Hunter-Killer Waterfront, the sudden appearance of a rock-skipping cop, and more, in a gritty, down-to-earth example of audio à la demande veritas.

I'm really proud of how this turned out!

gonna put a finger on the scale and say hey, it's really nice that Favorini-Csorba seems to have very concrete policy positions that specifically include food sovereignty and renters as like, people!

oh by the way if you're in Seattle you can maybe vote in the King Conservation District election this week. you'd be one of like 10,000 people in the city who actually bothers to do so.

I linked originally to a Stranger article about this year's ballot but then realized it was... LAST year's ballot--they didn't uh, bother to do a writeup this year I guess :/

you can find information about the candidates and vote all on the same website though: vote.kingcd.org/

went ahead and fediblocked federated.fun for being a third rate pleroma troll instance.

@shrike jsyk

suspended onevery.blocklist.com for being sus as hell and downloading a .bin from the profile apparently, though it looks like it might be a spoofed address and I'm not sure how to find the real one?
