EU citizen at home in the UK until we can move to France. Still have my FoM despite the Govt saying they've stopped it. Mrs Mark. Proud member of the Tofu Wokerati.

Our plan is for me and my British husband to move to France in a couple of years. We fancy the Lyon/Rhone valley area. We love Europe and want to be back in the EU (where corrupt MEPs are prosecuted rather than given a seat in the House of Lords, or made PM or Cabinet minister). Happily pissing off brexity in laws where I can.

If my sister went missing, I'd be straight over to their home to help take care of the kids.

@kityates It's almost like Sunak has missed the decades schools/everyone have spent trying to promote STEM subjects. He's saying nothing new.

@davidallengreen EU country leaders have their own electorates to answer to, the UK just popping in and out of the EU after the disruption and costs incurred would not go down well politically at home.

We've silenced mastodon.se and will suspend in a week.

https://blog.mastodon.se/inl%C3%A4gg/%C3%A5siktspolis/

This is a blog post by the admin of mastodon.se where they acknowledge that they have 'anti-political-correctness' accounts, anti-abortionists, harassers, etc. (there are neo-nazi adjacent accounts on there), saying they won't action their accounts because they don't want to be the 'thought police'.

As these kinds of accounts directly threaten the safety of the marginalised people on .art, we'll be defederating.

Update clarification: I want to re-affirm that Mastodon.se has rules against xenophobia, transphobia, among other things, and we will uphold these rules. Nothing has changed on that front. The users who inspired this post had not broken any of those rules. This post was made to try and define how Mastodon.se will handle when reports come in for accounts that are simply openly affiliated with a certain political party, without having broken any rules yet.

@BylinesNetwork I like the idea of them as content wrappers rather than warnings. The posts can get quite long here and take up too much of the screen. I've unfollowed a couple of people who post lots of very long posts about stuff I might not necessarily be interested in at that point.

78 years after WW2, Nazi war criminals from the highest to the lowest are still brought to trial. I hope all Russians from your rapists to your genocide propagators on TV to the men in the Kremlin know you will be on the run for the rest of your lives.

Be worried. Very worried.

@georgetakei It does. This place is nicer. The only thing I miss is some of the decent journalists (e.g FT's Peter Foster - please come to Mastodon!) and the smaller arty accounts not affiliated with anything that worked hard to gain a following.
