Shufei 🧮Dear New People, we will deign to notice you and offer some tips for you stinking new fish.
Make sure to wash your undies more than once a year, y’rubes.
Use alt-text - even in your head. Like, if you see an elephant, write “an elephant” under the picture in your mind. If you don’t, it proves you’re ableist. Alt-text merely on Fedi photos is just surface compliance and shows you’re ableist. Use alt-text in your dreams too or you are ableist! Do it now!
Check your privilege at the door. The attendant will give you a numbered chit so you can pick your privilege up later.
We hate FOSSbros and you should too, even though FOSS is like a third of fediverse. We hate us more than anyone. You must hate us too.
Make sure to note the Fedi-famous people and enter their orbits with respect. They are our gentry and aristocracy, though we will never say so. Kneel! Genuflect in presence of their august clout!
Participate in catstodon and other events or you are Not Fun. Remember, fediverse is for talking about nothing, even though half of it is chockablock with politics. So use #hashbrowns; label your fun as politics and your politics as fun.
Sincerely,
The HOA
PS: CW your CWs! Remember, content warnings can be a trigger for the content traumatized. This is traumaturgy, a major unexamined bias you have. Let’s unpack that!
