Just poked my head in to see how things are going over on the birdsite, and I think it’s safe to say that “boneheadedly unironic anti-trans rhetoric spun as ‘just trying to have a conversation’ from cis male athletes famous for being (a.) genetic anomalies or (b.) massive self-doping cheaters” pretty well sums it up.

I miss a lot of folks over there, but holy yikes do I not miss the dump fire I’d have to put up with to be there.

@TamsinSays I don't understand why anyone who isn't an alt-right troll is still there.
@skwirecortez A lot of people have communities they can’t afford to lose. Some of them have careers that rely on the platform. Some have found it easier to put up with the garbage there than with the hostility they encounter on other platforms.
