I am officially deceased after reading this Wall Street deli owner's response to the question of whether he asks his customers for stock tips:

Still angry abt that trans women at stonewall marriage post 

The ppl rioting at stonewall did not give a fuck about marriage they just wanted the cops to stop beating them and all their friends up when they went out!!!!

The ppl who cared about marriage and respectability politics kicked radical trans women sex workers like Sylvia Rivera out bc they didn’t want to be associated with “””street people “””

Begging ppl to learn some queer history

controversial opinion: "catboys" are technically catgirls, as that is the name of the species

Hey PSA

If you're going to talk about the #fediblock tag but not actually use your post as a proper warning for other instances, don't use the "# "

I don't. If I need to mention something fediblock adjacent, I write the word but I just don't tag it.

Because otherwise you flood the tag with posts that don't function the way the tag needs to and ppl got sift thru stuff for actual useful info.

Pls, stop.

White people behaviour 

White people: if a person of colour posts and asks white people to not respond, how about you JUST DON'T RESPOND!

Take a step back. Not everything is about you.

:goose_honk: Defederating from mastodon.social and mastodon.online in 2 days 

Hello dear people who read me! My home instance will defederate from mastodon.social and mastodon.online in two days from now. The instances are known to be too big, not well enough moderated and thus unsafe.

If you want to follow accounts on safer instances like weirder.earth, you might want to consider moving. I'd advise to ask around for smaller instances, as weirder.earth is neither the first nor will it be the last instance to take this step.

You can still follow my art account at @TQ@mastodon.art from m.s and m.o, although both instances are already silenced by .art.

What it means when people exhort non-White peeps to “start your own instance” or go to another more suitable one—-the digital version of White Flight/segregation.

“[Mastodon risks] ghettoizing the Black community in a federated space. All of the Black people go here and [other] instances have the option of engaging with them or deeding from them.]”

All right, time for a proper #introduction !

I am a Xaser, and I make #mods for #doom . I mostly post #leveldesign screenshots and automap views-from-above, 'cause I'm obsessed with making pretty shapes.

I do other sneaky #gamedev things too, but most of it is either real-life-stuff that I keep separate for Reasons, or for secret-ish projects not revealed to the masses yet. Keyword being "yet", I suppose. ;)

Obligatory tags: #introductions #newhere #modding #ImVeryNotUsedToHashtagsYet

One of the less known facts about the Fedi is this:

Alt-text is sexy. It makes you hotter.

Describe images and videos (even better, transcribe sound), and you will feel it yourself.

This is my annual reminder that starting about three days ago, everyone gets weird in their own ways until January.

Just try to remember and be kind. We're all dealing with so much, and we need to give each other grace. <3 (but also keep your boundaries, it's a balance.)

Hey so Telegram is starting to try and implement more NFT shit again - please go to t.me/designers and fucking downvote this into oblivion

from my perspective, the fediverse is a great case study on the erasure of african/indigenous latines via mestizaje and latinidad

and how the left's usage of social justice language allows for this kind of abuse

Profile finally updated!

So uhh, I was Lilith/Lailah, but now I am gonna add Lenneth to the names I go by, and this one feels a lot more me!

Twitter Is Wild: Reference to a Mass Murderer. 

Twitter suspended my account—get this—out of concern for the fragile feelings of a fucking mass murdering domestic terrorist.

#twitter #trans #shooting #musk

So that's what Twitter is now. And I told them so in my appeal. I'd rather have my account shut down permanently than delete my statement, which is MORE than justified.

May that mass murdering monster and all of his defenders burn in Hell. Sincerely and truly.

anyway, go to itch.io and buy some games from marginalized people, even if they're not on sale they are mostly cheap and you're gonna make someone real happy :)

I am not okay, but I probably will be in a better condition in the future.

Clowning on Transphobes 

Imagine being so wretched that you unironically think that your entirety of being, along with your gender is summed up with an organ that sits between your legs.

How sad of an existence you must lead.
