I don’t play well with bigots

@dexiheart they both looked promising. Sadly they’re both closed for new registration

@blackmastodon

Does anyone have any #InstanceRecommendations? I'm finally looking to make the switch but I'd hate to hop to somewhere just as bad or worse than where I am now.

@dexiheart many thanks!
First semester back in #HigherEd and I have a 12.0 (4.0) GPA

@sunnywillow it’s something I noticed before and tried to bring to the attention of the instance operator.

The cliffnotes is that on this instance I’ve found that:

1) Some hashtags appear to be hidden/inaccessible via search here but not on other instances. Most recently for me it was #FloMask

2) Hashtag suggestions and ranking appear to deprioritize race based hashtags

While on other instances I’ve not run into this problem

I may have to migrate to a new instance after all since the hashtag problem on this one is becoming a bit much

#TressieMcMillanCottom being banned on #TikTok (presumably for discussing how #Blonde isn’t a hair colour per se but a signifier of a type of person) is heinous.

#WhitePeople have this idea that they shouldn’t be uncomfortable or have their customs and norms questioned and that functions to the detriment of marginalized people.

It is not enough to refrain from spewing slurs. #AntiRacism requires you to work constantly, to question your beliefs and to prioritize equity over your own feelings

In the feedback for my paper my prof said my paper ate sooooooo talk to me nice

In true chaos gremlin fashion, I went from a marathon of #TheOffice to bingeing #JackRyan without realising I'd be asked to accept another Jim

And so, from an abundance of name confusion, emerged #BlackJim and #JackJim (which is to say nothing of Jimmy)

@carlosmcknight I’m only there in my imagination. In my infinite wisdom I moved to Canada 🥹
