If You are a Liberal, 🖕 (read bio!) @thufie@pixie.town

Well I think it is time I redo my #Introduction as the first one was right when I joined so very few people saw it and all that.

So first things first, I am autistic, trans, and an ancom. I talk about all this stuff quite a bit, especially ableism, which I see quite a lot in our communities. So far this one is making more of an effort than others I've seen, although that is a low bar. I also am polyamorous and have two partners. Been together with each multiple years at this point and it has been great.

I also have an undergrad degree in physics and talk about astronomy a lot. There is a massive amount of ableism and transphobia in our education system though, and nobody taking the pandemic seriously, so I have had to put that side of things on hold. I am not sure its even worth the time at this point with how things are looking worldwide currently.

I also am a Vtuber. I stream a bunch of different games but main ones are Dead by Daylight, Team Fortress 2, and Minecraft. I run a small Minecraft server through my discord server as well, links to all those are in the linktree in my bio. A main goal with streaming is to create a space where there isn't the non-stop ableist language online, while also introducing people to the basics of anarchism. It is small but growing, and from what I gather has had a hand in making some people anarchist already.

I also grow plants. My hope is to one day participate in local mutual aid with that as a focus but have had little luck. Finally moved out and started existing just in time for the pandemic. I am a shy disabled person who can't safely drive, and without much within walking distance, so I haven't found much. This means most of my action is confined to the internet for now, and it's not like that doesn't need to be done too. Met quite a few people without anyone irl to turn to and someone needs to be there for them.

anyways now time for the tags, I didn't want to spam them in the main text.

In #Krasnoyarsk (Russia) special task forces raided local alternative club asked about political views of people and controlled their tattoos. Comrades say that it might be connected with further criminalization of #antifascism in #Russia.

Today in Oakland, Lierre Keith, leader of DGR/WoLF, was pied and Kara Dansky, head of WDI-USA, was egged. The TERFs were there to exploit the tragic murder of a local lesbian couple to spread anti-trans propaganda and attack incarcerated trans women but locals weren’t having it. Two leaders of two of most powerful US TERF groups were publicly shamed today by members of the local community who decided that they weren't going to put up with transmisogynistic hate speech and attacks on trans women's safety, freedom & well-being.

TERFs were in Oakland to use the murders of Patricia Wright and Charlotte Reed by Dana Rivers, a trans women, to spread transmisogynistic propaganda claiming that trans women are a danger to cis women. Rivers being trans is irrelevant to the harm she committed (which appears to be related to one of the victims getting in trouble with a women's motorcycle gang that Rivers was a member of). TERFs are exploiting the murders to attack trans women as a whole. Oakland doesn't need TERFs claiming to "support lesbians" by exploiting their violent deaths to attack trans women, particularly trans women in prison who already face high levels of violence and abuse. Such ghoulish bigots deserved to be shamed and chased out of town.

To paraphrase the great Malcolm X, you can't stab someone with a six-inch blade, pull it out 3 inches, and call it progress.

And in the fedi, many people won't even admit the knife is there.

Me: I should really try to be kinder on social media.

One in ten US deaths last week were due to pneumonia, flu, or COVID-19.

That's about a 50% higher rate than the CDC's epidemic threshold.

Bottom line: this country is in the midst of a severe respiratory disease epidemic that nobody's talking about.

I am gonna have so much fun with this thing when I actually get my #ADHD ass sat down to fuck with it. 🖤 ☀️

I'm interested in knowing what y'all listen to out there for music. I kinda stick to my favorite genre and artists a lot, but I'm always up for being exposed to more stuff! 🖤

Maybe boost this and leave a reply with some suggestion(s)? I'm partial to alternative and punk rock, but I'm open to anything!
