As a g*mer who was accused of cheating back in the day because my best friend and I just kept figuring out all the exploits I find this particularly amusing

JayyRodd (@jayyrodd.bsky.social):

The gaming streamers are all over his butt, calling him out with obvious, well articulated evidence that he's a fraud a gaming and paying someone to advance his account on certain games.

It's a better takedown than tech media has done in the last decade.

Musk is pulling check marks on Twitter. 🤣

Sy Nakamura (@princewiddershins.bsky.social):

Baldur's Gate Online: no one realized a gnome mage/cleric/rogue was ridiculously over powered, something OG d&d players knew

Sy Nakamura (@princewiddershins.bsky.social):

Civ 2 Online: the founding city's first few turns can be optimized, by shifting city resources

Sy Nakamura (@princewiddershins.bsky.social):

Guild Wars 2: no one realized the Necromancer's potential

Sy Nakamura (@princewiddershins.bsky.social):

Shadowbane: broke the war start timer to turn it into a permanent force field and figured out everyone could hide inside a dwarf

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

That is a deep cut

Today's fun fact:

Lr* Lm*r's BlueSky account has accumulated exactly 0 new followers in the past week

Blocking Works, if you let it

Cut off their oxygen and let them starve of attention

Planet Nude (@planetnude.co):

Hi, you added my personal account @nudernix.bsky.social to a block list called "transphobes". I'd like to appeal. I'm absolutely and emphatically NOT a transphobe. I'm a progressive, an ally, and now many are blocking me who I support, including you. Can you please remove my account from this list?

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

@nudernix.bsky.social was added to the Transphobes blocklist on 11/30/2024 as a consequence of following one or more of the accounts purporting to be LibsOfTikTok. Those accounts no longer exist. To be removed, follow the appeals process - bsky.app/profile/skyw...

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Blocklist Appeals Process

To appeal listings on blocklists I maintain, write an email to the current blocklist email address.

Appeals must be in good faith and formatted as follows:

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Actually here I'll lift this and make a note for the future. You may have been induced to follow an account using an innocuous name / description which later flipped to LoTT.

Evan Nicks (@nudernix.bsky.social):

Thank you for the removal! I genuinely would NEVER knowingly follow LoTT or any account that did follow them. I don't have an explanation but I've somehow been added to several of these lists, and it's been very troubling for me as people I respect and support have blocked me.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

The explanation is that on 11/29/2024 & 11/30/2024, your account was following an account that said it was Libs of TikTok. It may have "submarined" - created with a different username & description, collected some followers, and then changed its name.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

So, I'm revetting the accounts I added on those two days and will write an advisory tonight about this possibility.

Evan Nicks (@nudernix.bsky.social):

Perhaps so. I've had the real LoTT account blocked since around that time—I don't know the exact date. In any case I try not to follow anyone who supports that kind of trash, so I'll probably subscribe to your block list now that I'm not on it 😅

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Most of the accounts near yours on my list are MAGA types, but there are some apparent false positives, too, which makes me think that this hypothesis is the explanation. The main LoTT claiming account never changed its handle, so it was likely a troll-alike or you just misclicked. shrug

While I watched tonight's Lasagna bake, I watched the first two acts of The Exorcist III, which is pretty good so far with the sound design - sparse and minimalist, with purposeful dead air in places contributing to a ramping sense of tension

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Kinderman slapping the desk and growling "It is not in the file! It is not!" in frustration over garbage record-keeping is so relatable. The outburst does nothing to relieve the tension

ian.fenrisgames (@fenrisgames.com):

My favourite Exorcist. It's just so tense and all the acting is top drawer.

(@derpgently.bsky.social):

Honestly, Exorcist III is way better than it has any right to be, in part helped by a good villain.

For me, the genius of David Lynch is exemplified in scenes in which Brad Dourif's performances were the ones most subtle and understated, even while Dourif's character visibly jones'ed over space-super-caffeine

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

He gave those great actors dentures of steel and let them chew that scenery, and it gave us perhaps the greatest death scene ever captured on film. It has everything. Surprise. Despair. Denial. Pathos. Bargaining. Acceptance.

Bots tend to follow accounts with recent activity. That avoids being detected by honeypots admins / volunteers may have set up.

Ade Loon (@adeloon.bsky.social):

Which account? Her last one was cancelled by BlueSky inside of one hour.

What's her new handle on BlueSky so that we can all: Report her for being a racist loony cow and then

Block her for being a disgusting 💩 of a human being as well as being a lunatic, racist, loony tunes female dog 😉

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

The one that was swiftly suspended, was suspended pending an impersonation investigation, and then restored, when they knew it wasn't impersonation.

She also hasn't posted in >2 weeks, and BSky will only action Behaviour on Platform. So there are people waiting for her to violate the TOS. 😉

Ade Loon (@adeloon.bsky.social):

Okay, so what's her handle?

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Well, I blotted out her name to defeat automated amplification; if I used the account handle, it would automatically amplify her account.

There's good reasons to avoid that.

Lots of lessons learned along the way include :

Denying hate groups & trolls the Oxygen of Amplification

datasociety.net/library/oxyg...

BlueSky's "Nuclear Block" feature works for this purpose.

We don't dunk on or entertain bigots. They get their fuel supply choked off by the block.
