mutual-aid, begging, fundraising 

Hey so our polycule has moved and is settled, but we just had all of our money wiped out by rent coming due. There's three of us in a single-bedroom apartment and we have to get money for basic needs like meals until we are back on our feet and no longer in debt. Oh yeah, my wife is a few hundred dollars in debt from the move, by the way.

Had to spend money on getting a new computer (our laptops were all stolen) and all the bullshit of getting started in a new city/state after getting the fuck out of Texas which wiped us out even before the landlord's payment system decided to fuck us over with extra fees.

I was taking monthly donations via liberapay before, but now I've also setup kofi as well. All money goes towards groceries and then paying our debts so we can get off to a new start here. Thank you so much for sharing.

I wish anarchists were... anarchist. The dilution of the revolutionary anarchist aesthetic online to near meaninglessness has me uncertain about who actually has my back. For the record, when I say I'm an anarchist, I mean all hierarchies are bad and unsafe. All cops, all empires, all states. If you disagree, why is it in your bio and so core to how you style yourself online? It feels like a lie.

Just switched to the K-9 mail thunderbird android pre-release. Here's to hoping it works longer than SimpleMail/FairEmail worked before that broke (stopped working after first inbox refresh).

my elderly Egyptian Uber driver happily informed me that he “supports the gays now” because he lives with a lesbian couple and “the husband lesbian is a better husband than I was”, happy pride everyone

Reminder that Fosstodon still has some stuff to be held accountable for 

Harbouring a r000t alt despite knowing who he is / what he's done: mastodon.art/@welshpixie/11081

(The admin actually DMed me after this to let me know that they had added a new rule about not harbouring known abusive actors, as if they'd put the rule in place so that they had a legitimate reason to kick the account, and then... the account is still there >.>)

Deleting a mutual aid post then suspending the account: mastodon.myocci.social/@bishop

Weird account suspensions: floss.social/@downey/110675313

Took a year to notice someone was breaking their 'only speak English' rule, then the admin got irate in replies and ended with "so. Leave. Then. FFS." archive.is/cyDQ5 (they have since amended the English language policy)

Problematic user still active:
archive.is/77Vtw anti-immigration views
archive.is/SWYEc calls Tusky's blocklist "control freakery" while implying allowing covidspiracy content is universally important
archive.is/R2Nq8 "opposing the enforcement of political beliefs"

#FediBlock

fediblock troet.cafe, transmisia 

#fediblock recommendation for troet.cafe

Their administrator doesn't really care about the moderation on his instance, that's my perception. Although there are rules that forbid racism and "discrimination against gender minorities", those rules don't seem to apply in practice.

I contacted Martin via a DM about this toot: (CW transmisia) troet.cafe/@christianknaut/111 (ghostarchive.org/archive/Z03lh)

For those of you who don't speak German: it's the usual dog whistle about locker rooms and sports.

He didn't reply, so I've sent him a mail in which he told me that he doesn't see transmisia, but if I'd send him more receipts, he might re-evaluate it again. He wants to be neutral and recommended a discussion.

To be honest, I'd recommend a block. For queer.group however, I only limited it for now, gonna reevaluate that decision later this week (and after more discussions with their admin).

Update: there was no discussion, my offer for that was simply ignored. lol.

fediblock, violence against Bedouins 

#fediblock SeanAloysiusOBrien @ tenforward.social for justifying the murder of innocent Bedouins oppressed by the state of Israel.

being a bisexual is like being able to dual-wield two-handed weapons: powerful

stories feel like an intrusive antifeature in every app now.
