Feeling my way around a specific fedi demographic, potentially awkward intersections of being a few different things, the potential benefits of community in smoothing off the edges, contemplating a groupchat.
For the purposes of this, I'm not asking you to have any specific medical diagnoses for dissociative disorders, have legally or medically confirmed your gender identity, disclose your trauma, or any of that shit.
Roughly, for my purposes:
Plural = there are several of you in your head
Trans = your assigned gender at birth is wrong about you
Feel free to boost.
Are you:
All these people saying they are just going to stop paying attention to politics and what's happening in the USA as Americans for the next 4 years. You are the Germans who didn't care about fascism because it didn't affect them directly. You might feel like you are being high minded or practicing "self-care" but the rest of us know, you figure it just won't affect you that much so you can't be bothered.

Starting to get a bit aggressive, I think 🤔

In memory of Manuel "Tortuguita" Paez Terán, who was assassinated by Georgia State Patrol two years ago today. Tortuguita was a nonbinary Indigenous Venezuelan anarchist who relocated to the U.S. and lived in Tallahassee, FL, among other places, before living in the Weelaunee Forest just south of Atlanta where the city planned to build a $90 million police training compound. They were committed to seeing Cop City stopped, and they put their beliefs into practice.
The solution to massive social networks that can be taken over, ran by massive cunts, become unfathomably capitalist hellscapes, breeding grounds for fascism blah blah blah, isn't "I'll built my own, and you'll love it because I am right, now I just need 30 million" or whatever, it's "we can work towards creating an ungovernable number of alternatives and seize the means of production"
joined rednote to watch all the hubbub and learn something and all the comment sections are just
Americans: Do you hate us 🥺
Chinese: No, we feel sorry for you, please come visit, most of us speak English but here’s all the Mandarin tutorials you could ever need.
Americans: I love you 😭
Chinese: Please start a revolution though.

"among the 19 million people who voted for President Joe Biden in 2020 but did not vote in 2024, nearly a third named Israel's U.S.-backed war on Gaza as a top reason for staying home."
29% of 19 million is 5.5 million
The popular vote margin was 2.3 million
Less than 300,000 votes across certain swing states could've changed the outcome
Always remember:
1. This ban happened because successive US Presidents Trump and Biden disliked the speech that was taking place on TikTok. No other reason.
2. Maybe you don't use TikTok. If the US Government can do this to TikTok, it can *and will* do it to whatever thing it is you like. This is true *even if the TikTok ban never goes into effect*. The U.S. now has a loaded, functioning weapon against free speech, and the next person who gets to use it is Donald Trump

Disability, Doctors
What changed you know? I'm the palest I've maybe ever been, but my PCP is also brown. But the rest are white. Maybe after almost 10 years of hormones i look less intersex. The gaslighting is some of the worst as far as disability goes cause it comes from everywhere, docs, friends, partners, family, strangers. And its gotten so much worse since the start of the pandemic. People glare when I have to use I cane, purposefully cutting me off. Like sorry you don't believe in canes?
