Somewhat related, our blocklist is public and we're very open to discuss our reasons that an instance is on our list. If anyone has concerns that an instance is blocked by us that shouldn't be, please bring it up. We've previously removed blocks when situations changed and we're very eager to remove any entries that legitimately shouldn't be there. You can DM me, you can DM any of our mods listed on mastodon.ar/about , or you can email admin@mastodon.art.

Please friends, who are still on tech.lgbt, if nothing else call you admin and moderators in on this kind of behavior.

It's a pattern. It's been called out by outside people, but if you don't try to change anything on the inside nothing will change.

I suspect more suspensions are going up soon, and all contact will be severed.

Looks like I misread the situation. That's what makes that report from the person from tech.lgbt so pernicious. Using the language of the marginalized to try to turn people against their own is on another level of awful.

I am doing an instance-level block of tech.lgbt

I'm 36. I first realised I was non-binary in my early twenties, and honestly at the time I assumed it would never be generally accepted.

Yesterday I spent eight hours playing a triple-A RPG that casually they/themed my non-binary character, and today I came into work, walked past a row of faculty offices with pronouns on the name-plates, and settled in for a day of being correctly gendered by my colleagues.

I mean. Wow.

discussion of suffixes & furry fetish art & also wow I'm not sober yet 

also the way furries generate [body part]vore is like how -punk gets tacked to everything

therefore COCKPUNK is obviously furries in futuristic gear but only from waist up and with LED veins on the shaft, and I figure Gideon would draw that really awesomely btw, and I can only assume ANALPUNK is sorta the view from the rear

doo doo doot, just gonna hang out eating gyoza in the dark neon-lit future with a ridiculously overdetailed doughnut bulging from my dump truck ass, here. I can totally see it. If I had the mad skillz to draw/color this as well as I'd like I'd be rolling in watches right now.

Those who doubt that people can be trans or that nonbinary people exist are on the same level of ignorant as a pre-archimedian mathematician believing that no numbers exist other than positive integers, negative integers and null.

Get with the times, you have rational genders, irrational genders, transcendent genders, hyperreal genders, surreal genders, p-adic genders, and best of all, genders that lie on the complex plane.

fedi racism meta, white womanhood & transness 

I mean let's call it what it is, this rallying cry to "protect trans women" in response to any criticism of leftist fedi: It's weaponized white womanhood. It's "to protect the honor of white women and the future of the white race" all over again, except they whitewashed trans womanhood in the service of white supremacy, erasing Black and Indigenous trans people in the process. Honestly the sheer insult to trans womanhood, my God.

Seriously, though, your duty is to not take on more work than you can handle. If you’re having a super shitty day, and doing the bare minimum to keep yourself alive is all you have the energy for, then fuck it, you’ve made your contribution for the day, and you should be proud of that.

This isn't worse than her trans episode, but it definitely shows the pattern of throwing out reason for the sake of content, and being anticapitalist is very trendy right now

Your duty to the revolution is to take a shower and eat something.

someone said this on Tumblr and its 100% true

exposure to fetishes you aren't into is inoculation against the disgust response right wingers prey upon

Sabine Hossenfelder done did it again and strayed from science and talked about capitalism and asserts that capitalism is when markets and money. Because money is capital

Of course modern planned economies would look a lot like markets methinks, but regardless market aren't bound to capitalism, they weren't even invented by capitalism, capitalism just came along and (ab)used them

Transphobes 

Okay one thing because I riled myself up

It's so fuckin ridiculous when people rail against trans people for perpetuating sexist stereotypes. I've read a few comments tonight that essentially boil down to "gender should be abolished but trans people are the problem"

Sorry pal you can't escape your jail cell without fixing the prison industrial complex

I mean that seriously--not having kids is a totally valid life choice, and anyone who pressures anyone else (including their partner) to have kids is someone who deserves to be ignored as the useless busybody they are.

Having a kid and then resenting them for failing to meet your ideal is NOT valid. It is unfair to the child who literally never asked to be born, and it is a dereliction of a parent's duty to love their child unconditionally, and to make them feel safe & welcome at all times.

If you think a disabled child is not an absolute joy and a blessing, don't have kids.
