Looking for a speaker/charity that does intro to LGBTQIA+ talks, focused on trans rights. Got moolah. Does anyone have suggestions?

There have been many waves of exodus from Twitter. When new people arrive they often bring with them their larger-than-life Twitter persona with them. I understand what that's all about, because it's how Twitter trains people to behave if they want to be seen and engage with their audience and so that the timeline algorithm works in their favour.

But here in the fediverse you don't need to put on a big performance. You can be more authentic, and just hang out with friends. Edginess which would be rewarded by the algorithm on Twitter tends to be discouraged here, and might even get you blocked.

good news everyone!! HEALTH CANADA FINALLY DROPPED ITS HOMOPHOBIC POLICY BANNING BLOOD DONATING FROM GAY MEN 😭😭😭 https://www.thestar.com/politics/federal/2022/04/28/health-canada-lifts-ban-on-blood-donations-from-men-who-have-sex-with-men.html

#feditips a non-joke one, using image description is very good and almost everyone here does it, if you're new here you should too, accessibility is very important and if you post an image try to make sure that even people who can't see it (at all or well) can tell what you're posting about

you know how you hate it when the doctor makes unnecessary and snide comments about how your health problems are your own fault or is otherwise gross about your body, or they're basically no help at all? so you avoid going to the doctor to the extent possible?

this is what fossbros are like for computers

I'm pleased to note that even https://dolphin.town, my Mastodon server where the only letter you are allowed to post is "e", has seen increased activity in the last few days.

Thanks Eeeeelon!

Ik heb een birdsite live instance opgezet om mensen te helpen verhuizen naar mastodon. Je vult er een twitter username in en dan krijg je een account die je kan volgen op mastodon met al hun tweets. Probeer het op https://birdsite.frog.fashion

* harassment instances dont exist (i as an allocishet white man know this of course!!)
* you are now allowed to defederate from your harassers thats against the spirit of the fediverse !!
* if you want moderation you should use twitter instead (im a supporter of foss btw)
