@chu well, he died right in the middle of doing a racist dogwhistle so arguably that still applies either way!

@FinalGirl FUCK JERRY FR
what a piece of shit

@JimEMichaels @inherentlee saying shit that doesn't even make sense...

Y'all............ I don't even know what to say

@nebula there goes the neighborhood

@bottled_o_taki yes because a lot of folks are determined to misunderstand us when we speak bc they don't like hearing from us in the first place

@em https://blacksky.community

i’m gonna level with you, random fedi user. there is no “tasteful” way to serve advertisements

@tobi I did that once, and it was indeed a trap 😭 never again!

@em damn, you're right! That's good to know

Garg going on Bluesky to shit talk them for not being decentralized is so funny to me bc ppl are dunking on him by pointing out some very valid critiques.

Like how Mastodon has been funneling almost all users towards a few big instances, or how migrating on the fediverse loses you your handle and sometimes some of your followers too (not even mentioning how you can migrate your POSTS to a new PDS using ATproto, something that I don't think most fedi servers can do).

Anyway, it shows how little he's been bothering to keep up with, for example, Blacksky which to my understanding uses an independent relay from Bluesky in addition to recently developing its own PDS, web app, and developing its own mobile app as well.

The best part? Some of those are quote dunks, something that I know he personally hates due to how long he's fought to keep that feature off Mastodon

It makes me sad to think about how many of us have been stolen by these power structures. Young, idealistic, good people. They want to help, they grab the ring of power, and they become everything they were fighting against.

PS: Please don't judge my choice, it's all I'm asking.

Also, me sharing my experience is not an excuse for TERFs to say that testo is bad, or whatever. It's not what's causing my issues, so don't use that to hurt transmasc and NB siblings or I'll bite.

It's just about meds in general, for the liver. Not just HRT.

@chatteringcrowteeth who needs any damn acootermints anyway! That's what I say...

@FinalGirl god that's so funny
And so typically fediverse 😫

A nation owned by the rich.

Oligarchy. Plutocracy. Technofeudalism. Kakistocracy.

I kind of question the political instincts, desire to survive and ability to learn from recent history of *any* Democrat who is still trying to do bipartisanship.

Listen.

They are just not that into you, OK?

I could bring up lucy and the football but that meme about Democrats is older than some kids who can vote now.

And bipartisanship has been blown up with no hope of repair.

I stand my case on continuing to reinforce the fact that "brunch" as a socio political organizing space has its roots in suffrage movements. (Which were already exclusionary of Natives, WOC , etc. )

@FinalGirl @Shrigglepuss :hhHHHAAAH: see you in another 6!
