bluesky's list, labeler, and starter pack features are underbaked. they are currently missing vital features and mostly constitute a privacy, safety, and harassement risk.
do not add me to any lists, labelers, or starter packs, even positive ones. i will block you.

In yesterday's training with @interruptcrim.bsky.social, @lewispants.bsky.social illuminated how the language of "peaceful protests" is essentially copaganda, as it can throw marginalized groups under the bus, as some of us are more likely to be seen as "aggressive" or "hostile" just for existing! 👀

The No Kings protesters are putting out the rule book on how to be nice & polite so there’s no trouble, cops don’t always care about that though.

Imagine a Good Friday Agreement announced but without any Irish representation

That’s what they’re calling Peace in the Middle East right now

Would you conclude that a GFA would last in such conditions?

No accountability = no end to the violence

It’s nowhere near over

Greta Thunberg's accounts of being kidnapped by Israelis further confirms that these people are nazis and cannot be redeemed. Anyone still speaking well of that rotten society can't be trusted at all.

If America dies, her epitaph will read, "They wanted whiteness more than they wanted a country."

No wonder so many of you still socialize with your GOP families and friends: you think they sort of have a point.

You tell Black people to set race aside while clinging desperately to it yourselves.

Genuinely, we have to consider men too far gone by their own means. The most merciful stance would be to entirely do away with the self identifying population of incels permanently.

If every incel somehow got a girlfriend, the net violence in the world would only go up. Because guys who think like that are violent and abusive to their girlfriends.
It's not their singleness that's dangerous, it's the way they think about women and will treat them.

anyway i have no idea where i was going with this

im very tired

that guy spends his whole day bringing your temu bullshit right to your door for terrible pay, chill TF out with your CCTV security blanket

p4riah @p4riah.bsky.social · 1d

its disrespectful at the least. 'work, peons, & know that i am watching you & recording your every move for later potential punishment thru state violence'

its a performance of power

probably also pretty damned racist in many circumstances

white ppls personal fort knox vs scawwy brown worker

p4riah @p4riah.bsky.social · 1d

the thing is, the ppl most likely to hear it?

working class ppl that you specifically got sent to your house

i once was doing rennovation where someone had this camera in their back yard

i heard it 120 times per day there

saw a vid of a black delivery guy heard it on a porch and started dancing

p4riah @p4riah.bsky.social · 1d

its motion activated, & im sure the IDEA is its a way to try & deter...trespassing? theft & breakins? dunno.

but i can only hear it as a threat. it says 'hi. im an agent of the surveillance state & can & will bring down the violence of the police down upon you'

p4riah @p4riah.bsky.social · 1d

ever hear that security camera setup that says 'hi! you are currently being recorded.' in this curt white woman voice?

any time i hear that shit i just think of some karen shakily pointing her phone at some black dude who dared to exist near her goin 'im recording you! im recording you!' or sumthin

🚨 The DSCC — led by Kirsten Gillibrand, Mark Kelly, Adam Schiff, and Lisa Blunt Rochester — has formed a joint fundraising committee with Janet Mills.

Mills, running against Graham Platner in the Maine Democratic Senate primary, would become the oldest freshman (79) ever elected, to a 6-year term.

the lack of masking has i think been a subtle but important factor in my feeling of dread and growing madness for the last few years

its an impossible to ignore proof of how the majority of ppl operate purely on vibes, peer pressure, and what they've been told

Gavin Newsom's position is clear: if it costs corporations money, or could cost corporations money, he will veto it, no matter who it protects or who it harms.

The man is another corporate toady, and nothing else. His priorities are CEO priorities, the same ones we see cozying up to Trump now.

"“While I strongly support the author’s goal of establishing necessary safeguards for the safe use of AI by minors, (the bill) imposes such broad restrictions on the use of conversational AI tools that it may unintentionally lead to a total ban on the use of these products by minors,” Newsom said."

Sometimes I am SO exhausted by the people around me. "Oh, you're still getting the Covid shot?" YES, mf! One, I don't want to fucking get sick, and two, my son's girlfriend has CANCER, and I'll do whatever it takes to make sure she doesn't get sick on top of everything else. Fuck's sake.
