We recently came across an amazing project called [uBlockOrigin & uBlacklist Huge AI Blocklist](

GitHub

GitHub - laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist: A huge blocklist of manually curated sites that contain AI generated imagery for uBlock Origin & uBlacklist.

). As they describe it, it's: > A huge blocklist of manually curated sites (1000+) that contain AI generated content, for the purposes of cleaning image search engines (Google Search, DuckDuckGo, and Bing) with uBlock Origin or uBlacklist. There's something really lovely at the top of the uBlock Origin filter list, just under the description, that brought us a small bit of very-much-needed joy, and we wanted to share it here with others 🫶 > !

Hey lovelies 🩷 We think we've possibly got a few followers and mutuals who are blind and use some kinds of iOS mobile devices, right? Enquiring because of a random encounter with another plural trans+ being on Reddit, who advised that they're legally blind and had not found any suitably accessible way to access the fediverse. Can anybody advise whether there are any such ways, so we can give them some way or ways to join the friendlier fediverse community? If not, they're stuck largely with Reddit and Bluesky 😅😔 The topic only came up after we advised that we'd found fedi to be much more plural friendly and accepting that most other such places... especially Reddit. For clarity, we have zero experience of iOS and are not blind (at least presently at least), so we'd appreciate any firsthand experiences very much 🫶🏻 #AskFedi #iOS #accessibility

Today is [Boxing Day](

Boxing Day - Wikipedia

) in some places. We suggest that this term is outdated and that we rename it to Foxing Day (or Fopsing Day). On this day, you should be extra kind to all the humanoid and nonhuman foxes and [fopses](

fops - Wiktionary, the free dictionary

) around you and in your life. If you have any fops friends, partners, or headmates, show 'em some extra love today 🥰🦊 Our foxgirl headmate Hannah highly approves of this idea 🤭 #BoxingDay #FoxingDay #FopsingDay #furry #therian #fops #WhatDoesTheFopsSay?

You/y'all ever get reminded of a post you've written somewhere, somewhen, simply because somebody liked the post or reacted to it, and find yourself/ves realising how much you do care about others? We frequently minimise our own abilities, particularly our intellectual capacity (or perceived lack thereof relative to so very many others), but then we get reminded of the detailed, several hundred word replies we've written in various places. We do still mostly prefer to socialise on Fedi, but we also try to help folks in some of the few nice(r) subs on Reddit, and we comment under some videos on YouTube even. It's not like we're suddenly going to fully overcome our own struggles with self-deprecation, imposter syndrome, and internalised feelings of worthlessness, but we are trying to allow ourselves to remember that we **do** care about others and that, at least occasionally, we might help somebody or write something with some small degree of insight. In any case, we're certainly trying... very trying sometimes, in fact 😅🤭 #MentalHealth #SelfWorth

**PSA for any trans+ person looking to start, or currently doing, any kind of voice training** **Seattle Voice Lab** has broken their silence over a former employee of theirs (Jimmy Chen), who set up his own voice coaching service called **Trans Voice Lab**. [We need to address Trans Voice Lab.]( ) We highly recommend watching / listening to the whole video, but here are some key points within their video:<li>Jimmy's employment was terminated for "manipulative teaching practices and dishonesty towards" their students.</li><li>He downloaded their bespoke training materials (SVL's intellectual property) and client lists (!!!), then used these to set up his own voice coaching service and write a book.</li><li>SVL didn't want to have to make the video, but has felt obliged to do so.</li><li>SVL is pursuing "legal counsel" over Jimmy's actions.</li> tl;dr<li><strong>Avoid</strong> any videos or guides from Jimmy Chen.</li><li><strong>Avoid</strong> using <strong>Trans Voice Lab</strong> at all costs.</li> Boosts and crossposts very welcome, as we need to make more folks aware of this :BoostsOKPrideSymbol: #trans #transgender #enby #NonBinary #voice #VoiceTraining #VoiceTherapy #VoiceCoaching #VoiceFeminization #VoiceFeminisation #VoiceMasculinization #VoiceMasculinisation #SeattleVoiceLab #TransVoiceLab #JimmyChen #PSA #queer #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQIA+ #BoostsWelcome
