Hi everyone! New to the Fediverse and learning as I go. Damn glad to be here. Somewhat nerdy introvert. Interests are #socialjustice, #womensrights, #savingtheearth, #nature, #animals, especially #cats, #horror, #yoga and #spirituality, etc.
Profile picture is a T-Rex with it’s mouth open looking like it’s about to eat a man in biking clothes who is kicking at it, and a woman in biking clothes holding both of her hands up to shield herself and looking surprised.
I have watched my life burn to the ground and started again from scratch many, many times.
I believe in second acts and second chances.
I want to say this clearly for anyone who needs to hear it: it is possible to survive radical, unexpected and unwanted life changes, to start again, and to build a new life that is worth living.

Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill would kill over 830,000 jobs, increase pollution, and raise energy costs alone by as much as $400 a household.
Fox News spews out misinformation all day, more “liberal” TV news doesn’t really cover this subject at all, and too many people get distracted by stuff that’s not going to impact them in any way whatsoever.

I have been guysplained to more times for this one post than in my whole previous history on Fedi.
If you're mad about "y'all", you missed the point of the post.
If you're looking up the etymology of "guy", you missed the point of the post.
If you're telling me that *you* don't think "guys" is a gendered term, you missed the point of the post.
If you're saying "dude, it's just a word", you're kind of a dick.
If you're thinking that "maybe `cisheteronormative white man` shouldn't be the default assumption just because they hold a disproportionate share of power and oppressors often influence language so as to make it seem like their way is the only sane way", then...damn, you *were* paying attention!
If you're like "omg, so much this", omg, ikr?? 🫂🫂
If you're typing out "I'll try to do better", thank you, that's all we ask 💝
Attached: 1 image Hey all y'all need to stop using "guys" in mixed company. - My trans girlfriend is not a guy. - My cis girlfriend is not a guy. - I'm not a guy (or a girl, but that's not relevant here). Misgendering is misgendering—even if "everyone's doing it". Patriarchy shouldn't be the default. #FuckThePatriarchy #Feminist #LGBTQ+ #Rant
Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C., has hosted funerals for Rosa Parks and Frederick Douglass and welcomed American presidents. It made history again this year: Thanks to a lawsuit, Metropolitan AME now controls the trademark to the far-right group known as the Proud Boys. After a pro-Donald Trump rally in December 2020, Proud Boys destroyed the church's Black Lives Matter sign. A judge awarded Metropolitan $2.8 million in damages in 2023. In February the church won use of the group’s name and symbols. The Rev. William Lamar sees the lawsuit as part of his church's civil rights work and legacy.
