If you mute someone you won't see if they @ you.

@soundshadow87 Stuff like this is why I love adblockers.

@soundshadow87 It stops it because it blocks the ads when it can. Adblocking is an arms race, so there are periods in time where the adtech is ahead of the adblocker, but that's usually remedied pretty quickly. The only trick to adblockers is that there are sites that disallow them, like Youtube, and if you're using Chrome you will want to switch browsers to Firefox because Chrome is about to kneecap adblockers as of this summer.

@soundshadow87 Do you have a Pi?

@MariaHill So what you're telling us is that you've learned nothing from the rightwing attempt in the 90's to prevent teen sex by doing things like attempting to ban sex ed or curtail access to birth control? I was under the impression that teen pregnancy is bad.

@MariaHill See also: Christians once again using the state to ram their religion down our throats. Which in and of itself is reason enough to oppose stuff like this.

@MariaHill Then Christians should quit curtailing everyone else's freedom from their religion by literally doing everything they swore they weren't going to do with their overturning of Roe. Christians have been engaging in the kind of lying to support their own brand of religious supremacy that would make an Islamic fundamentalist proud, and it's time that atheists and others put an end to this before they turn the US into a theocracy.
