I will never understand why people are so averse to diversity.

I like seeing trans people speaking to each other with idioms I don't get, cute girls speaking a language I can't recognize, or gay dudes priming and posing in random pics.

Seeing shit that is not for me makes me feel like I'm part of a much bigger world that still has space for me to learn and grow.

That's a big place of comfort for me. The bottomless nature of the human experience means we all have space to be fully who we are.

That's pretty cool.
Btw, I'm moving over to @kiwifuzz for my transition back into the fediverse💜🌸🌌

Free Mutulu Shakur: Calls Grow for Compassionate Release for Dying Black Liberation Activist

Dozens of civil rights groups have joined an urgent push for the compassionate release of longtime political prisoner Mutulu Shakur from prison. The 72-year-old Black liberation activist is said by prison doctors to have less than six months to live, after being diagnosed with stage 3 bone marrow cancer. Shakur was part of the Black nationalist group Republic of New Afrika that worked with the Black Panther Party and others, and is the stepfather of the late rapper icon Tupac Shakur. He was convicted in 1988 of conspiracy in several armed robberies, one of which resulted in the deaths of a guard and two police officers, and also for aiding the 1979 prison escape of Assata Shakur. We speak with Nkechi Taifa, a lawyer and longtime supporter of Shakur, as well as Brad Thomson, attorney with the People’s Law Office, which has filed urgent lawsuits to secure Shakur’s release. “He is in a desperate medical situation,” says Thomson, who calls any claims that Shakur would reoffend if released “patently false and absolutely outrageous.” “It is time for him to live out his remaining days in the comfort of his family and friends,” says Taifa.

I'm working on cutting off the zuck algorithm.

Idk how far it's going to go- but mentally I'm super duper there & done, so we'll see.

If your not feeling the effects of US collapse.

Your priveledged and have no business telling other people, that "It's not that bad"

Other countries are feeling the effects of our collapse.

Even in the US, everyone except the managerial sect of the economy. Is feeling the collapse.

Collapse isn't just economic. It's social, material, cognitive. Those shootings you see everyday, are the result of what's called the "Support Superstructure" being ripped apart.

Yes it is "That Bad"

A Month of Incendiary Revolt in Colombia | AMW English

In Colombia, the revolt that has taken over the streets since April 28, now more than a month old, shows no signs of stopping.

Pretty much no one is shooting cops in order to kill them.
Cops always shoot to kill.

& every single shot fired at a cop has been justified.

No bullet a cop has ever shot has ever been justified.
There's the difference.

You cannot demand a revolution, more so than you can demand a plant to grow.

You must give the Plant water, sunlight, fertile soil. It has to be carefully cared for, nourished and loved.

Failure to do so, it will wilt and die...

Carefully take care of, and have patience for the Revolution. And it will bloom a beautiful Rose.

Bitcoin is not just an energy waste. It's also a huge electronic waste : around 12 000 tons of custom hardware (ASIC) produced and thrown each year. That's the equivalent of 100 millions phones, or 12 phones per active bitcoin user (8.2 million) and per year.
