Mastodon, eh?
Middle-aged, cis-het white guy; my experience has been that the more we amplify the voices of those who don't fall neatly into those categories, the better. So that's what I try to do.
FYI: if I see you scolding someone for mastodonning wrong (i.e., "We don't do threads on Mastodon!" "You need to tag your b/w photos as colorless!" "This discussion of racism needs to be hidden behind a content warning!") I will block you.

Seattle protested at all of the Tesla locations in town today. Just saw this picture of Congress woman Pramila Jayapal making an appearance at the U Village Tesla protests.

But tell me how white people suffer from racism again. Please. I’m waiting, you demons.

My name is Rose LaCroix. I am a published author from the USA currently in Leverkusen Germany. If you have work for a native English speaker anywhere in the EU, I am available immediately.

I would be excellent as a proofreader for manuscripts, articles, or academic papers in English.

I could also proofread legal documents, assist English teachers, and much more.

I have a BA in social science from Portland State University and a German certificate of equivalency.

The Fediverse ain’t worth it if people don’t share and talk about art.

News isn’t what makes us human. Politics isn’t what makes us human. Tech certainly isn’t what makes us human.

Art is what makes us all human.

May I offer you a picture of an #otter in these trying times
It occurred to me that Harold and the Purple Crayon and Green Lantern are basically the same thing.
ah yes, the technology worth trillions of dollars
Just got fired from being a freshman football coach, if you want to know what MAGA does to communities. They don’t care about what helps people, because the school is certainly not going to find an ex-NFL player willing to coach there at that level, they only care about trying to hurt people.
Eh; let’s do another post. Hi friends, I am currently looking to get a job that will sponsor a visa for a US citizen. My primary skillset is in the land of SRE, devops, and related modern-ops things, but I also have some experience doing full stack dev w/ Typescript and even skill with C and C++. I know some Rust but don’t have formal experience there.
I’m looking for a gig in any country that looks safer for trans people than the US right now. I currently only know English (native) and Japanese (approx. JLPT N3 level, am actively studying), but am willing to learn whatever. At this time I only have a US citizenship and would need sponsorship. In a year or two, I expect my spouse will have acquired an EU citizenship, but has not as yet. #getfedihired #FediHire
