I toot things that catch my eye - global nomad, multicultural, ponderer, weary of xenophobia
Having just realized that this is still on my to do list, I search for words where to begin.
A list of questions would help the tongue tied
A lone wolf from insanistan
are we going to have a mefi thread on the latest mass shooting, or can we copy/paste the last one and do a find & replace?

Twitter can and does monitor tweeting in real time for persons of interest.
What's interesting is how and where and when they choose to do so.
That's the giveaway that they're actively condoning the ongoing bullshit, and/or at least some employees/mgt are doing so.
Time to nip this persistent myth in the bud
Twitter is not 'incompetent'. They know how to fix abuse and fascists and all that crap
They actively chose not to. They even fired their only black engineer over this
TWITTER IS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN ALL THIS
Twitter blocked the media search for the hashtag #bisexual yesterday, so we might get some new friends arriving here pretty soon.
If you're new to Mastodon and arrived because Twitter is a douchebag, be welcome 💖 💜 💙
It looks like we have a bunch of new users. Hi there! As always, it’s important when you join a community to understand the community’s values. You can find mastodon.social’s guidelines here: https://Mastodon.social/about/more
In particular, I feel obliged to note that sexist remarks (like calling women “hoes”) and racist slurs (like “nigga”) aren’t welcome here. And if you’re not a fan of “SJWs”, you’re very unlikely to have a good time here and should find a different instance.
Thanks for reading!
today I read that a juvenile #armadillo is called an #armadiglet, & I've been unable to confirm that *isn't* true, so please join me in making this real through our shared belief.
Has anyone documented the run up to WoC harassment online?
That is, how it builds up, the signals to look out for, and the critical junctures to note before it turns into a concerted attack?
I need to know what I'm seeing.
slack is down, everybody post boring work bullshit on mastodon
