Folks, please do block brighteon.social from your servers. Looks like a US far-right misinformation/conspiracy site and they’re apparently ramping up with tens of thousands of bot accounts. Best to nip this in the bud now.

If you don’t run your own #Mastodon or #fediverse server, please ask your server admin to do it for you by reporting them.

Attached: 1 image A source of new Fediverse accounts is dev.brighteon.social. 46,862 were discovered during the past day. Brighteon is known for spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories all over Facebook and Twitter, and it looks like they’re trying their hand at the Fediverse now. I’ve looked at the accounts on that server, and the overwhelming majority look like bots. The goal seems to be spamming misinformation. I recommend putting brighteon.social on #Fediblock. https://botsin.space/@mastodon_daily_active_users/110107223841240128

Working from home on a snow day is a privilege because there’s none of the risk of travel. But, it does kind of feel like I should be having the day off!

Today included an annual review for someone I line manage and it reminded me to say I am so lucky to line manage three truly incredible women whose gifts and talents make the world a better place #iwd23

Today has not gone according to plan. 100 miles in the wrong direction level of not to plan. This is not a metaphor!

On Saturday I built a doorstep. I’m so proud of it that it pops into my head at least every 20 minutes. I’ve no idea why this is the accomplishment which brings me the most joy - but apparently it is. Should I add it to my speaker bio?
