I hate that social media cultivates FOMO.
I hate that, on fedi, Twitter....all social media, really... for all the philosophizing done on leftist topics, we still act like white colonizers when faced with people making mistakes, or when we were called out on a mistake.
I especially hate the sense of hopelessness it's been cultivating in our current generation.

To be honest, after the whole fedi bullshit with Elekk, Monads and Myasstodon earlier this year, coupled with the slow death of FLO. I've been less and less inclined to be on social media overall.

Hey, it's been a hot minute.

Also, if you have any doubts. Allow me to validate you by saying you're awesome.

If you're my friend, I love you, and I will consensually smooch you in the face to show my appreciation, as well as consensually hugging you.

Also, normalize telling your friends that you love them, and not making it awkward by having a whole thing about clarifying that it's not romantic.

Normalize smooching your friends on the face, not as anything romantic, just to show appreciation for them. (With consent, of course)

Blocking the entirety of Elekk was one of the best decisions I've made on here

Fuck corporate lip-service, if you want to say you support us, do so materially.

We should make it a rule that corporations should be banned from queerwashing their brands for just one month unless they donate at least 5% of their CEO's total earnings, after tax, to LGBT advocacy groups.

Either CEOs are on our side all year 'round, or they prove their integrity by putting money where their mouths are.

ALSO let players pick and change main pronouns at any time.

Like this shouldn't be hard to code, but you almost never see any of these features in games outside of indie development

Like, just have the game make your character's gender presentation ambiguous and let you decide your character's gender presentation via hair style and outfit choices, and name choices.

Also let players rename their main characters mid-game.

Game: "What's your character's race?"
Game: "What is your character's class?"
Game: "Now give your character a name?"
Gamer bro: "Wait, aren't you gonna ask if I am a boy or a girl?"
Game: "Honey, you've already made that decision for yourself."

Normalize nonbinary as the default gender option in character creation in games.
