Police in the US killed 1,176 people in 2022, which is more people than they have killed in any other year in the past decade. Police do not make people safer. Black people are 3x more likely to be killed by police than white people and 1.3x more likely to be unarmed when they are killed.
I usually just post random dumb shit, but I feel the need to address something serious. I keep seeing white people respond to legitimate criticism from Black people with advice about how easy it is to set up your own instance. Letβs set aside for a second the fact that youβre telling a marginalized group to bear the emotional labor of moderating their own space. Youβre also basically regurgitating the same βseparate but equalβ bullshit set down by the court in Plessy v Ferguson. #BlackMastodon

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
