tiny spider 

there is a tiny translucent extremely pale green spider trying desperately to build a web across my desk/chair/body. I keep gently brushing it off, but there's only so much I can do when it's *so determined*. I'm afraid I'm probably going to end up squishing it accidentally, and will probably never know it...

idea for countering right-wing rallies 

Replace their posters with look-alikes that refer to the event as "FASHDANCE".

...but maybe this is obvious.

Hey #gardening Masto, do you have suggestions for drainage? I have some hanging containers left over from the landlord, and I just realized they have 0 drainage. Should I just drill holes in the bottom, or is there a better solution?

uspol, ms workers call out ms collaboration with ice 

> In an open letter to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella sent today, employees demanded that the company cancel its $19.4 million contract with ICE and instate a policy against working with clients who violate international human rights law.

echoes of google workers and project maven. there must be consequences for fascists and collaborators!

uspol, abusers 

The other thing is; they pulled this horror during Pride Month. Divide and conquer (don’t think about X, you must worry about Y), keep your victim exhausted, don’t give them anything that feels like accomplishment, try to control all access to information. Whether it’s children behind chain link partitions, conversion therapy or what they’re doing to us now, it’s a consistently abusive attitude.

the discourse 

A stressed animal will run, fight, or go to ground; helplessness overlaps conserving energy.

We, right now, have very limited means to “fight” and fewer to “run.” I don’t want to condemn myself for not fighting, not fighting enough, I don’t like feeling censured and I don’t have the heart to condemn others for “going to ground.”

If you gotta withdraw, DO IT, there’s enough going on your voice will be crucial whenever you feel like you can cope again.

current masto discourse re: self-care, pol, & CWs 

and like all rights, it is a right *and* a responsibility. the CW tag is giving you a gift of choice. making a choice you know is going to make you unhappy and then complaining that you were given a choice at all is the height of irresponsibility.

current masto discourse re: self-care, pol, & CWs 

okay, I'm declaring a moratorium on my reposting of stuff I agree with.

I am myself a person who right now does not have the spoons to deal with the current horrors. it may be weak or selfish, but I just lost a beloved pet last week, then went through a life-threatening illness with another. and even if those things weren't true, I might not be able to deal anyway. but that's my right. and it's also my right to not click CWs that might upset me.

RE: CW, distinctions of use, politics of marginalization and personal choices to modulate voice. 

Silence = Death

Insisting that the voice of the oppressed protest off the thoroughfare is fundamentally not a right we should be reserving. Though the choice to moderate your own voice is one that can be taken for a variety of practical reasons, or for consideration.
We should never normalize systemic social pressures for silence.

Us pol / escapism / action 

It is okay to escape from the news right now.

It's okay to feel hopeless.

Hide if you need to.

Then try and come back and help with some kind of action, even if it's just copy pasting an email to your representative/s.

Help locally.
Help one other person find resources.

Do something to make someone's day, week or year a little better.

Do something to make your community a little bit better.

💞💞💞 I'm hurting so much right now, but I'll come back 💞💞💞

When someone says "oh, it's just a few bad apples" (about cops, etc.) remind them that the proverb isn't "it's just a few bad apples but everything else is fine"; the proverb is "a few bad apples /spoil the bushel/".

misfiled as "Keet, Electric"

Just a little reminder that Google's "Holidays in the United States" calendar includes Black Friday... but not Juneteenth.

Draw your own conclusions.

[defunct] spooky

If someone is posting things you don't like, mute, block them, and move on.

If white people would mute and/or block me rather than sending me their useless emotions and wrong opinions about how they don't like being held accountable, this place would be better for both of us.

Save it, I don't care.
