People keep bringing up Wil Wheaton around these parts without acknowledging the legit damage he's done.

FTC might actually try to block Microsoft's acquisition of Activision , which should be a no-brainier... but the courts are littered with unqualified, neo-fascist Federalist Society ideologues.

It'll be interesting to see how this goes.

When ppl are actually ready to have a discussion about their implicit antiblackness and colorism manifesting and being called out on it, particularly because they are white passing and there's a historical & social power dynamic that comes w that, let me know.

What I'm seeing now is that calling out colorism and anti-blackness is a shitty thing to do and is offensive to light ppl and non black people of color.

In other words, Blk ppl and dark skinned Non Blk POC (bc hello they exist) can not talk abt how race manifests and affects them intracommunally.

Think of it this way. 'Karen is a slur!' is a silencing tactic for ppl who build a language around discussing their oppressors. My statement above is no different.

for colonizers: here's your one reminder to mind your own fucking business with how indigenous people choose to acknowledge thanksgiving

whether it's treating it like a normal day, grieving, protesting, doing community work, or gathering with family to share food, it's absolutely none of your business. not a bit. if you really need to say something, give them money instead and say nothing

@FoolishOwl @eric @danieldekay @Tinu but yes the world is definitely filled with "the white moderate" who's "more dedicated to 'order' than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice" and that's a real problem no matter where in the world you're trying to exist.

just an admin entrenched in whiteness who made everything about themselves and their hurt feelings when asked to do basic antiracism

the thread is linked here, and the below image is an example of the kind of nonsense he comes out with. this is in response to gentle but blunt direction from people responding his query about antiracism: he's not even getting called out, he asked for input.

i've given it a day or so and the admin has just moved on, and still not publically reconsidered his white nonsense.

learning is an essential part of growth. whiteness must be eradicated from the roots. because amici has not shown any interest in humility, i'm alerting people through #fediblock

an antiracist fediverse is possible.

I am looking for a name for this Blue Jay OC. My mind is empty.

so, I just realized that I need way more stuff to be able to bring my kittens home. I.. was just not thinking about it. Aside from putting the nets around the apartment I also need stuff like food and litter boxes and oof

my kittens are currently living with my parents but they started running away from home and while they do come back, the neighborhood is famously known for just fucking murdering street cats. I've been trying to save money to be able to bring them over safely but failing miserably

my mom going to spend some time away from home and my father can't and won't take care of the cats so I need to be able to bring them home ASAP or there are huge risks of them going away and never coming back ever again.

they are a litter of 4 (lugia, articuno, zapdos and moltres) but one of them is already with a good friend of mine. I'd keep the remaining 3 but they are too many so I'll be keeping 2 and giving one away even tho it pains me deeply

oh, those pics is from just a few days after they were born. they are now 8 months old but I don't have a pic of them all

hey, gentle reminder: please put your pronouns in your bio.

I don't care how many "good" journalists you have on your instance.

if you're having a prolonged ethical dilemma over whether to kick out a TERF, but have no problem taking swift action to kick out a trans person who mildly criticises you, congratulations: you are a TERF instance.
