#Pride Month is over, but I want to leave y'all with one thought about visibility.

When I was young, I didn't know what #bisexual meant—thought I was a broken straight.

I want people to see me and know that being bi+ doesn't have a damn thing to do with your ability to love as you will, including the possibility of being in an awesome relationship like the one I've had for over twenty years.

I want some young bisexual to know that and not beat themselves up for decades. I want them to love themselves. ❤️

if you try and dispute these facts you are a liar or an idiot

I have no time for liars and the wilfully ignorant

The facts:
-all of my experiences with pleroma have been negative
-whenever I attempt to talk about this I am dogpiled and subtooted until my original point is diluted
-people will accuse me of not considering the shittiness of mastodon: Ignoring the fact thatI regularly complain about this shit

would it be shitty of me to ask for donations to save for a computer?
I'm disabled so it's my only real way to communicate with the outside world, or write, or make any kind of art.
I don't need something top end, but something that does stop working at random for reasons no one can ascertain would be nice

Depression lies. I know it because I've suffered through bouts of it.

There was a time it was bad enough to disrupt my sleep and memory, and I literally had to start sending myself detailed instructions on where I parked my car at night because I would forget. Depression lies to us through our own brain chemistry, and it is the worst.

If anyone out there needs it, there is help. You are worth it.

Hi everyone. Just would like to tell you that you are here because you are needed in the universe. ✨ Keep doing your thing!

Boost if you think trains are the best method of transit.

A patron complained about my police brutality and ACAB display table at the library

So I took it down and replaced it with books on Stonewall and “Stonewall Was a Riot” artwork ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@kafkaesqueNomad oh sorry. Gargron was talking about wanting to promote Mastodon as a platform for Black Lives Matter and wondered why they weren't taking him up on the offer. Turns out the extent of his offer was to send Deray (who isn't officially a BLM organiser) a Twitter DM, but he didn't reply, therefore in Gargron's mind "Black Lives Matter isn't interested" 🙄🙄🙄

We: Look these concerns about harassment!

You: That's not so important, no one gets harassed here

We: look here, and here. This stuff.

You: Nah that doesn't happen to us, can't reproduce.

We: We really don't like that this happens, and we've put a lot of emotional labour into this project, we want to make it work!

You: Did you add code? No? Fork it! Bye Felicia!

We: OK! We're Forking it!

You: OMG FORKING IS SO FUCKING HOSTILE HOW DARE YOU!?
