💡 FEDI. TIPS

Boosting is really important on the Fediverse because it makes whatever you boost federate its gayness to the entire servers of your followers. A boosted post makes your followers' timelines more gay, and also contributes to the gayness of everyone on the servers of your followers.

Instead of venture capital, the Fediverse relies on human beings sharing gayness. This process creates a wonderful rainbow of gayness.

#FediTips

trying to not live in my head all the time and live more in my body, as the therapist suggested, but honestly this place is kind of a dump
i'm just a girl
standing in front of the world
asking it to get its fucking act together
@foone I know it's a joke, but my daily driver keyboard is 34 keys, so 33%, and it has blank keycaps. It uses layers like Shift and Fn on many laptop keyboard, but instead each of the 4 thumb keys is like an Fn1 to Fn4. All of that to say my keyboard really is like remembering semi-circle forward punch with no printed labels to help. Queue 8-bit game music.

Aight my scraggly bright carrots, I must away, parting shot, rye and exhortation:

Above all other things, they want most for you to believe that you are a) alone, and b) powerless.

But you're not alone, and if you were so very powerless they wouldn't be trying so hard to convince you that you were.

Here.

Take my hand.

You are not alone, and your power -- YOUR PERSONAL POWER -- terrifies them.

Tomorrow's Wednesday.

Stay safe.
Stay strong.
Stay angry.
Stay kind.

You fucking *matter*.

Why do we say 'slept like a baby'? Babies wake up every two hours crying.

I want to sleep like my cat. 14 hours, no responsibilities, zero regrets.

If you post a job opening on the Fediverse, please make sure it includes the salary range and location.

Salary ranges are mandatory by law to be shared with job posts in some jurisdictions.

Also, we're way past that bizarre game to waste everyone's time by trying to guess what each other is willing to pay and work for.

This is just silly and unprofessional.
Advertise your salary range.

I've seen the past exonerative tense before, but the present continuous exonerative tense is special!

"Black women's unemployment is rising."🤡

All by itself? Magically?

The entire US, Dem and GOP, is going on close to 24 months straight of being publicly and loudly anti-civil rights (anti-DEI).

"Black women are more likely to work in the departments targeted by DOGE."

is like saying,

"Harbor seals are more likely to be found swimming in the water that happens to be rushing into a great white shark's rapidly opening mouth."🤡

Dudes have been open and vocal about their desire to drive Black women out of leadership positions in the federal government, higher education, and private industry. That's their goal.

And yet, we still talk about these outcomes as if they're just an unfortunate side effect of generalized downturns.

🧵In 2018 the Senate Intelligence Committee asked me to field a team and analyze a data set that social media platforms had turned over: several hundred gigs of data chronicling a multi-year effort to divide American society *and* interfere in an American election www.lawfaremedia.org/article/retc...
Maybe I shouldn't answer the door.
