This is maybe some terminally online freak shit but I remember who’s who when I see em. The rest of the time is me waiting for the other shoe to drop for everyone else; haven’t been wrong yet…

people in here really trying to be like “you are defeatist and wrong” and “I have hope” who also don’t wear a mask anymore lol

listen. say whatever you want. I do not want to hear from anyone who isn’t taking Covid seriously anymore. I just don’t. If you are not considering both your community’s Covid response and its climate response as things at the top of your mind in all of your praxis you are naive and you are not prepared to do what needs to be done for any cause with the urgency it requires. And that’s 9/10 people in this thread. That’s 9/10 people in the country. 9/10 people in the world.

There are almost 100 replies to this thread and not a single one mentions disability or anything at all about the consequences of unchecked Covid spread and mutation — except in the past tense, of course…! Nothing anyone says which is like this is a serious analysis of things. You are — willfully or otherwise — neglecting a massive piece of the puzzle then showing me a picture with a hole in it and telling me I just dont get it. I am so exhausted by it.

So no I don’t have a whole lot of hope for this place, or indeed many places anymore, and no amount of Lenin or Mao or any other esteemed thought leaders are going to change that in this current moment.

I was just thinking about this post the other day! I couldn’t remember what the term they came up with was.

It’s the default option when you make an account which is where I assume most of the “I don’t give a shit about pronouns” stuff would land, yeah. I make a note of it whenever I see a bad take now lol

Forgot to say: good riddance lol

Also a big Covid minimizer from what I remember. Had this person blocked on my Lemmygrad account and didn’t remember on this one until recently when they made some subtly racist jab in a topic about the four Trump shooters being white guys.

It is the same for disability. As a disabled trans person I've come to some peace (though not quite fully) with everywhere in the world just being shitty for me forever. When it gets bad enough where I live it will be worth the calculus of determining the least bad of "bad" or "worse" places, which I am preparing for in my own ways, but in the US and western European countries we are not there yet.

glad to see that’s sorted. thx

what point do you think you are making here exactly.

I had no idea about this. Very funny but also infuriating. They all know exactly what they’re doing with this mealy-mouthed shit. “do not trust corpos” says the corpo suit. Incredible

It’s not even another billionaire, it’s Jack Dorsey, the twitter guy. I do not understand why anyone who dislike twitter cares about bluesky at all.

 
 

I posted this some time ago under my other account which I nuked along with everything else, and by now I've got a fancy pants recruitment page & a cool grafika in the works...though this is not my strong suit as you may be able to tell by my charming WIP banner:

(the community finder page is still using a placeholder until I'm happy with it, lol)

Is this cringe? Yeah maybe but who cares, kill the cringe cop in your head. I love this game and I'm a mostly-housebound immunocompromised person who's been completely isolated from public life & organizing for the "better" part of the last five years; I want to do something about it in the meager ways I'm still able to. Feel free to delete this if I'm doing a personal shill too much or whatever, but I want to get the word out where people who actually care may exist.
