I tried to block the message but its class is randomized and an attempt to block by the block-shadow property, which doesn't change between reloads, did not work.

I'm using uBlockOrigin v1.52.2

Thanks!

I kept fiddling with it and was able to block the message with the following in my uBlockOrigin filters:

www.wordnik.com##link ~ div

I know it's an ugly hack, but I leave it hear for others looking for temporary solutions. For those not familiar with CSS selectors, it hides any div preceded by a link sharing a direct parent with the div in question.

Yeh this is pretty hacky but thanks for looking. I am having a hard time figuring out what script is even injecting this.
