I released a hack for @lukegearing.bsky.social's Violence.
I've been sitting on it for a while but I decided I should just get it out even if there's still some stuff missing from what I eventually want it to be.

The 13th annual international Gender Census 2026 is now open until at least 13th August 2026!
survey.gendercensus.com
It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

Over/Under made it so I've had to explain what "the OSR" is to a lot of people so I will say this one more time in public instead of private.
At the circus I work at there is a short clown who is hot under his makeup. Due to the angle I saw him do a specific dance move I know he's hung. That's OSR.

Why is Australia banning social media for teenagers?
Critics say new law is 'normalising surveillance' for young people and risks cutting them off from support networks.
