The face shopped into the photo belongs to the lead singer of an American metal band called Disturbed and "down with the Swiss Miss" is just a play on one of their most popular songs, "Down with the Sickness." The title of my post is also meant to imitate his scatting vocal style in the song.

Yikes. Amazon must really hate that their employees might be able to use the bathroom without their knowledge and permission, huh?

“Hardline republicans and house speakers are natural enemies, like democrats and hardline republicans, or centrists and hardline republicans, or MAGAts and hardline republicans, or hardline republicans and other hardline republicans. Damn hardline republicans, they ruined hardline republicanism!”

Yep. Shame on any company or individual that's still active on Twitter. It's a nazi platform now and there's no excuse to still be there. Mastodon exists, so if you're still on Twitter you are part of the problem.

!moviesandtv@lemm.ee is a pretty great community if you're into movies and tv. It's where a lot of the regulars from moviesandtv@lemmy.film went after the lemmy.film instance was shut down.

Hey all!

It looks like most of you had difficulty reaching the site for about 5 minutes, but those issues should have subsided.

During that time, you may have been shown an incorrect error message that read:

Whoa there, pardner! reddit's awesome and all, but you may have a bit of a problem.

Make sure your User-Agent is not empty, is something unique and descriptive and try again. if you're supplying an alternate User-Agent string, try changing back to default as that can sometimes result in a block.

To share some additional context on what happened - we pushed a bad code change in our tooling that resulted in a significant amount of users getting blocked without doing anything wrong. So if you happened to see that error message within the last hour, don't fret! We've reverted the code change that caused this error and things should be back to normal very soon if they aren't already.
