realizing that this person makes an entire third more per month from accusing people of being racist online when they complain about queerphobic and transphobic stuff than i do entirely from being disabled. i get 600 monthly and i can't supplement that, any money i'd earn from any job gets taken out of that, great

Just watched THIS post described as "nasty racist shit" and this is precisely when I stop taking you folks seriously at all.

We're done here. I've made my position known and I'm going to get on with my life.

i had a curry one and mavica had a chinese chow mein with added seafood sticks and they were super tasty thank you for asking

Trans women are used to cis people telling us we can't take up space, but our voices will be loud and disruptive until harm against us is treated with the same weight as other forms of oppression.

If you don't like it, listen to what we have to say and stop assuming bad faith in every criticism aimed at you. Your marginalization doesn't make you exempt from perpetuating harm against us.

You can block us, you can smear us, but you can't truly silence us, and that's what threatens you at the end of the day because you depend on social coercion and it doesn't work on the one group of people who tossed aside the need for cis approval.

i'm here to be a problem to those who choose to see me as a problem

i have plenty of friends who do not choose to see me as a problem

@mavica_again yeah, fair, they do still make me want to tear my hair out though

@mavica_again mastodon, now with new and interesting problems that will make you want to tear your hair out!

mastodon in theory: decentralized twitter

mastodon in practice: what if we pooled ten different early-2000s opinionated web forums together into a thunderdome

trying to remember other times in the past since i started HRT that i've felt like this and i think this isn't the first time, but i have no idea on the pattern, i'm gonna chalk this up to period and me being very weirdly affected by hormones

I trust responsible instance admins to do their due diligence regarding anything posted on the hashtag, but I don't trust the mob of dogpiling harassers who are just looking for a fight all the time and patrol the hashtag to find it.

my emotional/physical state tonight is as such: i'm exhausted and inexplicably want intimacy i can't put a name on and i'm hormonally depressed and upset to the point i could cry at a moments notice and i can't focus at all and i'm also enjoying this weird concoction of pineapple juice and bitter shandy and it feels like there are 5-10 feral rats inside my head all with different ideas of how to feel and what to do. there is space for maybe 1 rat at the controls at a time, they don't care

CW: kink, petplay 

realizing that while this isn't an 'adult' account per se, nobody who i'm embarrassed about seeing my kinks and stuff is on here to see, so i can actually post about that with the appropriate tags, etc.

if you're a domme who's able to do hypnosis and is into putting cute lesbians on leashes hit me up...please

i have also been here since april 2017 folks

computer fairies was founded in april 13 2017

i've been pushed out of my own space because i wanted to be friends with the wrong people, apparently, literally it was a personal spat with a bigger instance admin which turned into "ooo this person is a mad abuser"

i wanted rhys to be my friend, not to be ghosted and belittled by them

i don't think that's too abusive to ask for, in a personal environment

that's the danger of

#fediblock discussion 

Apart from the technical reasons, it's also just.. toxic. It takes Twitter's horrible culture of dogpiling people based on made-up justifications and applies it to the Fediverse. It ensures that every tiny mistake results in a massive argument (which never does any good, it just hurts everyone who gets involved) and the blocking of entire instances.

This makes Fediverse a less safe and welcoming place for everyone.

I'm not even mentioning the fact that many of the people who were targeted this time are queer and/or disabled.
This is not a coincidence. This kind of "canceling" often harms people who are more vulnerable and don't have a massive platform the most. That's just how it works.

(4/N)

imagine i inserted the gif of the seagulls from finding nemo here 'mine, mine, mine' but it's about discourse

Show thread

i feel like, in general, when there's a big uproar about something like the fediblock stuff right now, about 50% of the people complaining and making big posts about how bad things are are not at all related to the issue and just want something to make noise about, like seagulls who live on chances to make it about themselves
