We're $70 away from hitting the halfway point to make sure our AMMLY team member can secure housing. Please remember that first, last, and a security deposit can be really daunting. And thank you to everyone who's shared and given.

the venga bussy is coming

there is no solution to the omni-crisis that's not the burial of the great satan

came back to rep my software. check out: WITCH CLOCK: a lunisolar calendar clock.bovid.space SPELLBOOK: an offline-first diary garbados.github.io/spellbook/ ALCHEMIST: 83-line react-killer garbados.github.io/html-alchemi...

‘How about your spirit animal is shut the f***k up?’ says Anishinaabe woman

been meaning to say this. here goes. moderation by deed and moderation by ethos are different. bsky has committed to the former, which means singal stays. the latter would mean banning him because he's a creep, because he conflicts with a chosen ethos. but that's like being mean and libs hate that

fash don’t read, for strategic reasons. from sartre:

why does it feel like T&S is quietly making the choice that they want bsky to ultimately host DJT and his lackeys because something something the public square? and that’s why singal is fine here, because he’s along the path to that fame-through-complicity?

T&S' silence on singal is deafening. @aaron.bsky.team what's the holdup?

imperialists will make so many excuses for each other when the basis of governance that affords them a vote at all must be dismantled for its virulent global violence. what does it mean that these obviously corrupt shitheels have any weight at all? why legitimize them? death to america

Just because you can't do everything doesn't mean that you can't do something. Your 'something' matters to 'someone.'

Rudy is doing moderation the way it should be done that Bluesky can’t do. Rudy doing so much and a multi million dollar company struggling LMAOOOOOO. Anyways yall better throw coins at @blacksky.app ❤️❤️ Shining example of what to do opencollective.com/blacksky

i want to communicate a reframing of a lefty attack on “billionaires and inequality” into one of radically questioning what wealth is, ultimately to see things like transforming the land relation as necessary aspects of a just transformation. it isn’t that they’re rich. the money is made of blood

the first obligation in the halls of power is to attest to that power’s legitimacy. any existential question amounts to sedition. to say, “should we not do evil?” becomes unspeakable. the sentimental turn cowardly toward, “how kindly can evil be done?”

I'm going back to Mastodon. I'm tired of having a minimum of one dumbass reply "I have no clue what you're talking about" every time I make a post.

Which is why Bluesky needs to yeet Jesse Singal out of here. And to yeet JKR on sight when she brings her hate brigade over here. It should be non-negotiable.

I'm not convinced that the politics of the killer matter more than the politics of the act.

step one: trans people make a space their own step two: cis people monetize the space (ex: vc funding on hypothetical value of the platform, created by aforementioned people) step three: cis people equivocate about virulent transphobes because they’re retrograde libs step four: trans people leave

dance dance communist revolution

A system where mass murder via paperwork and policy is legal but existing while Black and homeless is punishable by vigilante killing should be abolished.

To me Jesse Singal has long been an iconic example of just how few consequences there are for even virulent transmisogyny. One of the first things I learned about him is his serial predation of trans women, something I almost never see people who aren’t trans women acknowledge about him.

bluesky will ultimately choose subscriber growth over protecting marginalized people. they're high on their new supply and don't want to lose steam or attract controversy, and banning "journalists" will always create more media attention than transphobia. it's just another platform. a company.

oh boy your vc lifeboat made nice with liberal transphobes because dialogue or some shit. ban jesse singal you cowards

my friends are starving to death, my sisters and i are facing legal and medical challenges to our very existence, our neighbors are about to be deported. we literally don't have time to debate anymore.

why would i be interested in making a killing machine efficient

i do not speak to be mean. i speak to hold accountable.
