So I know loads of folk were here before making this a cool place.

I think we can help.

Sorry this happened to you, it really sucks.

This is one of the problems with a truly open social media where content is controlled by the instance owner that the account was registered on.

May I suggest banning that particular instance since it obviously does not clamp down on hate speech? If all the sensible people ban the racist instances then they’re left to shout into their own echo chamber.

Today is Thanksgiving Day, and it is also the National Day of Mourning, which remembers the genocide of millions of Native Americans and their ongoing erasure today.

In giving thanks today, let us also reflect and act to stop the ongoing genocide of America's Indigenous Peoples.

“We are afraid of religion because it interprets rather than just observes. Religion does not confirm that there are hungry people in the world; it interprets the hungry to be our brethren whom we have allowed to starve.”

#BlackFriday is a trap.

It is designed to push your buttons and trigger your FOMO.

The idea is to make you buy more than you need, to keep enriching the already wealthy at the expense of our wounded planet.

You are so much more than a consumer.
Say No.
Exercise your willpower.
Buy Nothing.

"There is no forking, no glitching, no upcycling of the fediverse’s code that is possible to enable a space for Black and (visible) People of Color to be safe. Our existence period…is a political act, because we have survived. Although I don’t think that we should have to be fighting all the time, and that the onus on existing in space is on us to be either be happy or fist up all the time either."
