I have just sent to @iftas and @nivenly each a separate Github issue, each entitled “Stop platforming transphobic abusers who send us death threats”, about the person they platform who did that to me, after I criticized his attitudes regarding fellow trans people and fellow survivors of rape.

Both issues are very similar in content: in both cases, I ask them to deplatform a man who abused the Queer Fedi community for too long. A simple gesture to signal their intent to listen to our community.

This is the one I sent Nivenly:

This is the one I sent IFTAS:

https://github.com/iftas-org/lote/issues/17

I have taken archival snapshots of the issues on third-party archival services, as a possible deletion would constitute a form of antagonistic reply.

Queer people are advised to remember that emoji reactions such as thumbs up and thumbs down are NOT anonymous on Github, and prioritize their safety.

Fedi, if i made a blocklist of every person with financial ties to the companies that platform the guy who sent me death threats, would you find it useful?

It would work much like the blocklist of trans women the guy who took issue with me for defending fellow rape survivors assembled - no appeals.

Since social adjacency was enough to exclude trans women from the Fediverse, I think it’s fair we protect our community the same way.

Reading the autobiography of my idol, Alberto Santos=Dumont.

He was a Brazilian inventor who designed and flew the first practical airplane.

The Wright Bros achieved the first powered, heavier than air flight. A huge deal! Alberto met & collaborated with them, and used their wing warping system for his plane.

But the Wright Bros flyer could only launch from a rail. It had to be retrieved and rolled back to the starting point.

Alberto's could land in any flat field and take off again.

Wanted: a patched phone operating system which instead of having permissions for apps returns them all random data, unless I have allowed them access to the real thing.

Randomly generated address books, location coordinates, WiFi network names, picture folders full of noise, battery levels that fluctuate wildly.

Fucking poison the data gathering well. Make it looks pretty realistic. My phone has enough storage and compute to create realistic looking names and telephone numbers. Let the advertisers think I'm traveling back and forth on the Orient express.

on Linux, is there a way to switch off "Tamagotchi Mode"? specifically i mean the thing where you set up linux exactly how you want, and every 2 weeks you run package updates and some obscure part of your system which you didn't even know existed now no longer works the way you set it up, and you have to spend 90 minutes fixing it, and it's always a different thing, and this happens every 2 weeks, forever. how do you switch that off? (ideally in a way where it won't switch back on after 2 weeks)

For your safety, the current list of instances that Ro uses to attack queer people on fedi is:

- rage.love
- queer.group
- indiepocalypse.social
- blackqueer.life
- queer.garden
- mastodon.art
- solarpunk.moe
- colorid.es
- cathode.church

Blocking as many of these instances as you can will minimize the risk of your instance facing transphobic harassment from Ro.

It's best to block all of them - often harassment escalates when a new source is added to the list (not yet blocked). #fediblock

Ro is now fantasizing about murdering his internet enemies with guns and/or the US military.

This is deeply, deeply, weird behaviour!

Back home!

Now, what was the point of this exercise?

Receiving death threats as a 20 years old isolated trans girl is fucking terrifying, it’s probably your first time getting them and you think it’s serious.

I’m twice that age, with all it entails. So i’ll tell you: the guy who sent them to me, the details are here: https://mastodon.social/@fedilore/114281481113969158

Look, he puts his damn wallet name online! It’s on this page by @nivenly - https://nivenly.org/docs/papers/fsep/ - it’s Roland X. Pulliam

You literally never do shit to people when you threaten them from your wallet name. He did that because he was angry I talked about his horrible attitudes about survivors of rape and transgender women, that’s all. He also brings up chaser allegations i didn’t bring up, fuck if i know why.

But anyway: someone wants to fuck up your life, he does it, no warning. Someone threatens you means he hopes to spook you.

Everyone, point and laugh at the death threats he sent me.

I made a little thread (on main) about the death threats (the most recent ones, those i received) and pointed out that Nivenly has his full name on their pages, to show to younger people they have nothing to fear from this, even if people half my age might find it traumatic. I also told that company to clean up their act. It's here: https://fedi.aria.dog/notice/Asn3nOecqQHE1EHZPk
