Vesper and Nikol were side by side on the subway, scrolling.
"You know what I really #hate," Vesper remarked. "Is when someone starts their tweet with 'Make no mistake.' I'm so done with that."
"They're not called tweets on Bluesky," Nikol said. "They're called 'sk---'"
"I also hate people responding to a comment with unrelated pedantic criticism," Vesper said darkly. "And by the way, I'm scrolling Mastodon, not Bluesky. Where they call them 'toots,' but whatever."
Vielen Dank

Inzwischen frage ich mich wirklich, ob dieses digitale #Trolling in sich zusammenfällt, sobald es nicht mehr durch Konzernmedien - #Neurohacking gepusht wird. Dann wäre das #Fediversum auch ein Ort der Heilung. 
Aber es fällt mir noch schwer, nach all den Jahren voller #Hate wieder Vertrauen in digitale #Medien zu fassen… 
#Trump Admin Threatens to Withhold #Funds From #PublicSchools
State #education officials will be required to verify that they have eliminated all programs that promote #diversity, #equity & #inclusion [#DEI] that the administration deems *unlawful* [uncomfortable for #FarRight #bigots] according to a new memo.

#USCIS just sent out an email announcing that it only recognizes "two sexes - male & female" & generally only sex assigned at birth.

'Open declaration': Hegseth slammed over new tattoo seen as insult 'to the Muslim world'
if this was some fucking fascist with a fascist tattoo you could overlook it.
But that person is Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The Secretary of Defense of the USA with one of the most powerful armies in the world.
We should be concerned
New filing by the plaintiffs in Talbott v. United States — the challenge to #Trump's ban on #transgender #military service members.
Last Friday, the DOJ asked the court to dissolve the injunction.
Plaintiffs also argue DOJ gave no legitimate reason for a stay pending appeal.

For years Trumpers have been hanging confrontational flags and banners at this overpass. Adding a Nazi flag was a superb way for them to get in the news.

Look, you are either #antiracism or you're #antiracist - the difference being: are you a Daryl Davis or not?
Some seem to think that #hate will win against hate, that the only solution is to fight fire with fire. But as my mother always said, fighting fire with fire burns the whole forest down.
Know that what Mr Davis did was point out the obvious: #racists are just confused and scared human beings. You can win them over, they can be helped.
But it's all about #psychology.
Digital Pathways to Violence: the Tech Ecosystem Behind the Antioch Shooting
Does Tom Homan survive on a diet of salt, Popov vodka, and hate? He always looks like his blood pressure is off the charts and he is one Pringle away from a heart attack.
…Wilson entered the public consciousness because of her father, but not for typical nepo baby reasons. (Before you ask, Wilson says she’s been financially independent from her father since she came out as #trans in 2020….) At the time, she was trying to disconnect herself from #Musk, eventually writing in a 2022 petition to legally change her name that she doesn’t “wish to be related to [her] biological father in any way, shape or form.”

TV: Do you ever feel scared? He's the richest man in the world.
VW: He's a pathetic man-child. Why would I feel scared of him? Ohhh, he has so much power.… I don't give a f**k. Why should I be scared of this man? Because he's rich? Oh, no, I'm trembling. Ooh, shivering in my boots here.… He owns Twitter. Okay. Congratulations.

So the guy I posted a picture showing one of the hateful #maga comments is doing it on all my videos. #scoopz usually auto-deletes them too, which he doesn't know.
He must be quite angry.
He doesn't understand what a filter is either, and neither do ANY of these guys, as I get the lipstick comment regularly.
I wish I had lipstick.
Though I'm a goth and it would be black, not red xD
I wish I had more money so I could trigger them more!

agreed. in this regard, #socialMedia can be a force multiplier for good as well as what it is now: a force multiplier for #bigotry and #plutocracy
but that makes our communities a target
so we need something like #mastodon where we can squash the #trolls without the "fReEzEpEaCh!" #bigoted morons and #centralized #corporate social media indifference or tacit support for #ignorance and #hate
we need the #fediverse to grow
#Trans people, #women, people of color [#POC] are being erased
Across #Trump’s federal government, agencies have been busy scrubbing photographic and written references about women, people of color & members of the #LGBTQ+ community from their websites.
