Can we finally stop talking about that jagoff that was fired from Fox?

If you’ve been on social media for longer than 38 seconds, then you know that you control what you see by muting terms and hashtags and muting, unfollowing or blocking people.

But saying “I don’t want to see anything about [topic] so please stop posting it” isn’t okay. No one, on any platform, is going to tailor their posts to your liking, and they shouldn’t.

B/c it was not enough to silence her voice on the House floor, #Montana Republicans have banished Rep. #ZooeyZephyr from the state legislature for the rest of the session. She will not be permitted to represent her 11,000 constituents who elected her to speak for them. GOP lawmakers misgendered Zephyr & accused her of violating decorum by opposing their anti-trans bills & saying they would have “blood on their hands”. Protesters who supported her were arrested. This is what #fascism looks like.

I'm with Joe and Kamala.
BECAUSE of Joe AND Kamala.
No ifs.
No ands.
No buts.

Moved off mastodon.social today. Working on refollowing everyone. The import from my archive doesn’t appear to be working, so pardon my sudden follows and requests to follow.

You might have noticed that I boosted a few---or maybe 50---toots about duly-elected Representative #ZooeyZephyr being censured, silenced and oppressed by the #Montana House today. For speaking truth to power. For protecting her constituents.

And I'll keep boosting those posts because everyone needs to pay attention to this story. This assault on #Democracy.

#Trans live matter. Right? Find a way to prove you believe that.

I'm sorry if this upsets some of you, but the Ferengi episodes are the best Deep Space Nine episodes.

This is Authoritarianism
This is why

BREAKING: #transgender lawmaker #zooeyzephyr has been barred from the #montana House floor. She has been protesting #GOP leaders who silenced her after she spoke out about bill that would ban gender-affirming care for minors

@1finekitty 1. Gut the federal workforce
2. Point out how nothing gets done in the federal government
3. Privatize government functions
4. Shake down government contractors for campaign contributions

Wait...didn't DJT also suggest raking forests to mitigate forest fires?

Do these thongs make my porch look fat?

Resistance against trans genocide often looks and feels like this: one, lone trans woman, standing alone, with no allies around her, her voice silenced, her dead mic raised defiantly above her head, her terrified eyes begging someone to listen, to help, to stop this madness.

My first music video to ever cross 15k views. Don't usually care so much about numbers but, that's nice.

That hairstyle doesn't even attract females in the animal world.

The American habit of covering cinnamon buns in icing is regularly mocked by Swedes who see it as a perversion of a real kanelbulle.

Now the moderators of reddit's food forum are starting to ban lots of Swedes.

In another comments a moderator said they didn't want "moronic cum obsessed Swedish users" in the forum 😭

Keeping busy is not a substitute for mental health work.

It's really not about Biden. It's about the incumbent Democratic president versus the Republican Party. That's the choice. Sure I wish we had a younger, more charismatic nominee who would unflinchingly push for my personal agenda, but that's fantasy, not reality
