Did something change about the pattern of @pypi package URLs?

This one works:
pypi.io/packages/source/c/cata

But the newest version doesn't, even though the package installs fine with pip:
pypi.io/packages/source/c/cata

Which is foiling my attempt to update the corresponding @conda forge package
github.com/conda-forge/catalys

Or is there some kind of caching or CDN thing happening? It's been a few hours since the PyPI package uploaded.

And we can't talk about the West Alabama Woman's Center without begging you to support their incredible, life-saving and immorally underfunded work:

Andrew Whitehead on how the worldview he was taught growing up in white evangelical Indiana was all about "saving" the country by forcing the country to be like "us":

"Much of what I had been taught of how to be Christian in America was predicated on the intertwining of a particular expression of Christianity with American identity, and the accompanying desire to see this fusion elevated throughout our society to 'save' our country."

@barney @GreenFire There is madness in power like that of Putin, Netinyahu, and Trump. They will all eventually become like Golem from Tolkien’s Ring stories, talking to themselves in third person. With any luck they will die soon.

Have been contemplating why I like it here so much more than Facebook even though I only know one person here IRL. Here I post about something I'm interested in, usually a book or photo or pets or something, and there are always people who want to talk about it. The Bookstodon community here is great, as are so many other communities. I learn something here every day. On Facebook I only see memes and ads with occasional good content. Glad I found this place and the great people here.

The same people who want "parents rights" that let some random mom get books pulled from a library her homeschooled kid never even visits also want to roll back laws that require parents to be notified if teens are working in a chicken plant.

It's never about saving the kids. Not even a little.

Donald Trump's belief in presidential immunity should tell voters all they need to know about him. A vote for Joe #Biden is a vote for the rule of law. A decision to stay home means Donald Trump could organize a mass shooting of, say, #BlackLivesMatter protesters and he could claim presidential immunity even if there is a smoking gun linking him to the shooting. washingtonpost.com/opinions/20

Hello! Here's my intro, since we're doing that at the moment.

I'm a cantankerous, self-doubting 43-year-old cishet (m) digital marketer/digital marketing skeptic. If you follow me, expect only occasional posting. Favorite things to post about:

#politics (far left)
#jokes (dumb, absurd, and/or mildly inappropriate)
#magic (the gathering)
#DeepThoughts (with or without Jack Handey)

I've also been a (non-exclusionary!) nerd all my life, but I'm not really interested in competitive fandoms.

Brian Klaas on why we need press objectivity, not "balance":

"When the news is 'balanced' in an unbalanced world, it becomes an instrument of deception. This has made producing the news extremely difficult in an era of mass delusions and hyper-polarization."

When one side is spewing toxic nonsense and the other is trying to carry on real conversation, false equivalency by media normalizes the toxic nonsense.

Andrea Chamblee's husband was killed in the Capital-Gazette shooting. She has become a gun control activist. Now, she is running for school board. She has my full support. Elections matter. #Maryland marylandmatters.org/2024/04/12

A broken street light gave a red glow... Not the best shot as Arwen doesn't pose that well 😉 but I thought the effect was something to capture and share.
