"well i tooooold you guys the nazis would figure out how to undo it so we shouldn't even botheerrrrrr"

sometimes the act of being seen to even make a fucking miniscule effort to state you are no friend of nazis is important, even in open-source software, you fucking fossbro idiots, which is something you all might realize if you stop assuming every single person has the same technological expertise that you do

#TransCrowdFund / surgery fund update

The other day I passed out on the side of the road. I think it was due to stress. All of a sudden everything was blurry and fading, and then I was unconscious.

Last night I dreamed I got a letter that someone was going to pay for my surgery, but I realized (in the dream) that it wasn't real.

I have less than two weeks left before my operation. I'm going to go forward with it either way. Right now, I struggle for food security and to pay my bills and rent. So, I'm not sure how this will work out, but it has to. It just has to.

on receiving and soliciting feedback (snarky, 531 words) re: code of conduct consulting re: fosstodon moderation update (-, 235 words) 

@codesections @mxsparks @lawremipsum Let me get this straight.

You want my input, because you as community managers want to be responsive to the needs of the communities your actions impact ... but you have nothing to say in response to the hundreds of words I have posted about the thing that you are doing.

Now, I wasn't talking to you and I didn't expect you to care about anything I had to say, but if you are going to reply to a post about you to ask the poster for feedback, it doesn't say good things about your sincerity to ignore /the feedback in that post./ It makes you sound more like someone ticking off a box than someone reckoning with what people have to say. It makes you sound like someone putting up a front of reasonableness rather than someone who wants to learn.

Which, honestly, is why I wasn't talking to you. Is why I was talking to everyone who isn't you, in fact, both so they have a better idea what to expect from you based on your past actions and so they - who have no ego tied up in the matter - can think to themselves, "geeze, I don't want to screw up the way they are screwing up" and not screw up the way you are screwing up.

I'm not even talking to you now, replying directly to your post. I think it's possible you're listening, which is why I have tried to be polite and share useful information - after all, it's important to me that people have the chance to become better people, whether or not they take that chance - but as I have explained, I don't expect you to care what I type here. Preserving your own self-image as someone who listens to people who criticize them doesn't require you to process any of these words, and processing these words would mean eating a /lot/ of crow - and honestly, no one moment causes the kind of comprehensive change in worldview that I would expect you to /need/ to truly deal with what you've already been told.

If I knew you or had some position of authority over you, it would be different. For that matter, if I knew you or had a position of authority over you, this would be a direct message, because people are better at receiving hard-to-hear feedback in private, without an audience. Changing your mind in public feels humiliating - even when (as in this case) it would garner you far more respect than it would lose you - so if I thought I had some power to change your minds, I would speak in private to you.

But I'm just a stranger on the internet. And you've already shown that you don't care.

So ... good luck? I don't think you're going to succeed and I'm not interested in giving you feedback that you won't listen to, but I've been proven wrong before. And if you read this far, thank you for your time.

Hi guys! So... I think it's time for me to shut down the raccoon.network Mastodon instance. It's costing a lot of money every month to host it, and I miss belonging to a bigger instance. So, from here on out, please follow me over at @tilton

@00dani @emaytch oh haha, Asuka Langley, another Eva character (and my favorite)

Leaving mastodon... 

@JigmeDatse @kel@plush.city @chara@mastodon.starrevolution.org well we need to work on our own methods. you've been more active in that regard

Kara leaving wasn't because of you, although the disagreement might have set her to thinking. she just felt generally like she was stuck

oh, Chara has something to say

🔴 I'm sorry. I have been a jerk, and it's made us hard to get along with

🔴 stay determined, huh?

Leaving mastodon... 

@JigmeDatse damn. well... we will try to stay in touch via Discord
