Living on Gumbaynggirr country (mid-north Coast NSW). Progressive #auspol. Always trying to listen, learn and do better.

Yearly reminder to not give money to the Salvation Army. It is not a charity, it's a fundamentalist Christian organization that supports anti-queer policies. Support mutual aid resources instead.

#SalvationArmy

Seeing some posts talking about fediblocking turning Mastodon into a "filter bubble." No. We absolutely do not need abusive or fascist views to have a high level of intellectual diversity. Full stop. That hate can fester somewhere else.

After 20 years of social media, the experiment has been run. Hateful people are unconvinced by rational argument, so there's no point engaging with them.

This is a rotten, disingenuous, meritless argument, from A to Z.

Fascism is to be defeated, not debated.

Having a go at an #intro #introduction... (I'm really bad at hashtags, so bear with me)...
I've joined the #twittermigration and just want to say thank you to the Mastodon 'oldies' for being patient and welcoming. It must feel like an invasion. I'm going to spend a bit of time sitting back and learning how to do it right!

Anyway, for now, I'm Tracey. Just turned 60 a couple of months ago, gah, how did that happen? I don't *feel* that old! 😱

I've mainly used the bird site for following progressive politics #auspol, but also keeping up (and learning to be a better ally) with everything from #lgbtqia, #indigenousrights #trans #disability etc. I don't always get it right, but I'm always trying to learn and be better.

I'm distressed about how #Covid is being handled, really cheesed off with #letitrip. Wear a #mask! Beside myself about #climatechange and wanton destruction of the #environment

Personally, my main recreational interest is #cycling - mainly #cycletouring with my husband on our tandem.
Earlier this year we did a crazy thing and rode across Australia in #Indipac #IPWR

We have a blog: http://tandemtours.blog I'm in the process of writing up that trip, day by day.

That'll do for now...

Tandem Tours

... the one on the back IS pedalling.
