NASA’s Artemis I Cameras to Offer New Views of Orion, Earth, Moon

Trans journalist Parker Molloy criticized journa.host for failing to moderate transphobia: journa.host/@parker/1093663371…
Their mods responded by suspending her.
I am beginning by silencing journa.host, and I intend to upgrade this to a suspension if they don't shape up. I encourage journalists there to move servers, and if Jawns follow journalists there, you may stop seeing them.
I'll try not to discuss #fediblock too much, but this is a tough mod decision I want Jawns.club members to know about.

While I'm still currently on the journa.host instance, @adamdavidson's decision not to take action on anti-trans content isn't inspiring confidence and I totally understand why other places are doing instance-level blocking.Mastodon
Going to show a little vulnerability here and share this work-in-progress.
I'm trying to put what I'd like to have as a purpose for my instance in writing.
It really sounds like a pipe dream to be honest, and I think an instance's purpose should be so clear that it can be put in a single sentence.
Does this sound like something that would be possible, interesting and doable to you?

"Es decir, la resistencia no es solo persistencia; la resistencia, en la forma en que lo estoy pensando, siempre incluye perspectiva, el medio por el cual podemos contextualizar la duda y, al darle contexto, desplazarla un poco, despejando así el lugar nuevamente para la fe sacudida. Quizás la mejor manera de pensar en la resistencia es como una fusión de perspectiva y voluntad."

CSS class' "icon" property "height" causing distance beween two lines in profile views
The said #CSS class .icon has a property height: 48px which with current HTML structure causes a distance between two lines when I view a remote profile (view: /contact/X or a post (view: /display/X):
I'm sure, removing height from the said CSS class won't fix it in the long run but maybe checking the HTML/div structure would.

Book Review: Be Creative: Making A Living in the New Culture Industries by Angela McRobbie
In Chapter Two, ‘Unpacking the Politics of Creative Labour’, McRobbie examines conceptually the idea of creativity by dissecting ‘the romance of being creative’ as a new form of governmentality; or, how young creative professionals believe in passion and happiness in the workplace as compensation for precarious jobs. In the current labour market, for example, the role of unions is diminished and has been replaced by skills of ‘self-management’ to achieve success in an uncertain market of creative labour; this entrepreneurial or start-up mentality is part of the professionalisation of being creative and a marker of middle-class status. This chapter is key to understanding McRobbie’s perspective on the ideological role of creativity in the changes to the cultural economy in the UK since the late 1990s.

On the third day of the #Artemis I mission and over halfway to the Moon, @NASA_Orion maneuvered its solar arrays and captured the Moon.
