“Crumbling” is a metaphor for the decentralized nature of the fediverse. The crumbs aren’t disappearing they are just given autonomy from the main body. Mastodon is designed to crumble. It’s a feature.

This really speaks to me as someone living with mental illness

No more of this fucking absurdity, please.

No more forcing kids into PE lessons.
No more health shaming, scaremongering, lifestylist bullshit.
No more assigned gender at birth. No more assumption of able bodiedness and neuronormativity.

No more mocking people for struggling. No more contempt, disregard and suspicion for our stated limits. No more forcing us to pretend, to grin and bear it.

No more of this cold blooded, tough love, be-cruel-to-be-kind murder.

Meds (+++ but bittersweet) 

Gabapentin is the revelation I was told SSRIs would be.

Actually having some nervous 'room' for my subconscious to maneuver is letting it process and soothe trauma.

I was prescribed SSRIs hastily and with disregard for the side effects I kept reporting. SSRIs were supposed to start some kinda internal processes like this, but didn't.

Because you don't give someone w/chronic pain and BPD LITHIUM and then a truckload of SSRIS. Thank you NZ.

Stop teaching people that killing their bodies is healthy. That grinning and bearing pain is how it should be, that pain is just normal and a part of life.

It is not. Not this sort of pain. Not debilitating pain, not mindfuck and brain fog pain.

If a single person had listened to me I could've had a few years extra life.

Please, for fucks sake. Don't let this paradigm survive any longer.

Mastodon is disintegrating like the cotton candy that raccoon tried to wash in the creek in that one gif

infinite growth is literally unsustainable and a capitalist garbage myth

github is a non-programming space because people just post code there instead of doing Real Programming, which is when you give your hottest take on linux kernel mailing list drama

@io

That's not politics, that's just political theory. Politics is where the two neoliberals glare at each other.

(You know that's not what I really think. Isn't it weird that getting rid of cops, prisons, borders, or private property aren't considered politics?)

since the fediverse "isn't a political space" I guess I can't share my opinions on the following:

- private property? nah
- cops? who needs em
- prisons? get rid of em
- restorative justice? yeah definitely
- Emma Goldman? she was right
- supporting one another? really great stuff
- marginalized people? y'all deserve the world
- the right to be alive? you've got it

gee, if only there were a space where I could engage with my peers about how to bring about a world I want to live in,,, , ,, ,,,
