Is there a #queer / #LGBT general social #Mastodon #Instance?
(Asking for a friend)

Tried to factory reset my #MSI #gaming laptop last night. Simple process, F3 on boot to load the reset manager, and follow the prompts. Easy!

It wiped the #windows AND revovery partitions, then failed, saying to try again using the recovery DVD.
WHAT FUCKING DVD, there isn't one, or even a DVD drive. The recovery program just went and wiped the recovery partition where the recovery files were. What the actual fuck MSI??

Used a windows iso on usb, so its sorted now, but still.. Just Wow!! 🤬

Loving the new #Samsung #GalaxyS #OneUI 5.1 phone update and the new OneUI 4.5 watch update.

Especially the new ability to control the phone camera zoom from the camera remote control app on the #Watch4.

Just used this new feature for the first time, and it is awesome.

Yet another mass shooting in #USA. Yet more lives lost to this very American problem. As long as #guns and ammo are easily available to the public in #America, it will continue. Common sense says make gun ownership heavily regulated, and illegal in most cases for most people. Amend the #Constitution. Amend the #2ndAmendment. Fuck the #NRA.

Shooting at Michigan State University brings US gun violence in the spotlight once again

This is the 67th such incident in the US in 2023 alone, and it comes less than 15 months after another mass shooting nearby.

@Free_Press the right wing tory loving daily mail, renowned for sensationalising and false reporting, really isn't a good source of info imho.

In short, because #Eightpoint refuse to block a former admin, outed as a serial rapist from their instance. This harbouring of a sexual predator is putting their community and the wider #fediverse at risk, which goes against #techlgbt's standards for safety & ethics.

I personally agree with the defederating, and think until Eightpoint take a firm public stance against these kinds of things, other instances should follow Tech's lead.

Because of course all non-cis and #trans women have bigger muscle mass than #cis women, giving them a competitive edge in #sport (sarcasm btw)

Its pure discrimination and transphobia in action.

UK Athletics is going a step further in its trans exclusion by seeking to change government policy

The UK Athletics governing body has asked the government to change the law to further prevent trans participation in sport

I'm just so tired of cis people leaning into their neurotic hangups about sex and gender to justify a psychopathically murderous hatred of people who aren't bothering anyone.
