Benefits does not cover all of our necessities so we need $640 for the remaining bills.

Please help us out, we don't have much support outside mutual aid and we're too sick to work

It’s especially funny when JCVD is self deprecating.

But the sexual harassment from the office evolves into sexual assault, then to threats of forcing a female coworker to be kept for sexual purposes while her companions are murdered. boxd.it/4VoZrb

Review of ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ (2013)

For most of this movie, I was having a good time. A bunch of office workers go to the jungle for bonding exercises with JCVD. Then they are stranded on the island and it becomes Lord Of The Flies.…

There can be no social justice without disability justice.

You want to fight fascism? Engage the disability community.

Practice inclusivity. Wear a mask. Make protests and resistance accessible.

Don’t treat us expendable, less than or “better off dead”.

Don’t leave us behind.

Who Link was here & how he formed site culture, insisting on alt text & accessibility & disability justice, insisting on standing with trans people, mutual aid, irreverent shitposting, shows exactly that this culture of early bluesky that forged the platform is the opposite of what the team wants.

Central character Kayla (Danielle Horvat) has epilepsy. At a few points, her seizures cause her to stop when she should be running. Unlike most media, she is not shown convulsing, but instead shows her staring off into the distance, usually seated, but at one point collapsing.

Unfortunate update: Link reached out to BlueSky and got email back now on reason.

His appeal is denied. He will remain permanently banned on BlueSky’s side.

Here are the screenshots he just sent me as of 8:22 AM EST(my time)

A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team with the subject line “Bluesky Account Behavior” sent at 22:15. The email states that a Bluesky account controlled by the recipient, with the handle @spacelawshitpost.me, posted a reply with an image where the alt text reads: Charlie Kirk sitting in a white T-shirt that says “Freedom.” A negative consequence follows. The email indicates this post violates Community Guidelines regarding violent or threatening speech, specifically listing threats of violence or physical harm against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public, and incitement of self-harm or suicide.

A screenshot of an email continuation from the Bluesky Moderation Team displaying a bulleted list of Community Guidelines violations. The first bullet point describes threats of violence or physical harm as including threats or encouragement of violence against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public. The second bullet point defines incitement of self-harm or suicide as content that encourages self-harm or suicide. The third bullet point explains wishes of harm as expressions of a desire for harm directed at a specific person or group. Below the bullets, a paragraph states that users may not use Bluesky to break the law or cause harm to others and that all users must be treated with respect. The next paragraph informs the recipient that as a result of these violations, your account has been taken down. A closing paragraph thanks the user for doing their part to keep Bluesky a welcoming and empowering place for all users and instructs them to email moderation@blueskyweb.xyz if they have questions or wish to appeal the decision. The email ends with the signature Bluesky Moderation Team.

A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team sent at 08:11 with the subject line Re: Bluesky Account Behavior addressed To: Hide My Email. The email reads:

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out to appeal the takedown of your account on Bluesky. We have carefully reviewed your case, including the information you provided and the activity that led to the suspension of your account.

After investigating, we have determined that your account activity was in violation of our community guidelines, specifically promoting hateful content or being disruptive to other users. We take these guidelines seriously to ensure a safe and respectful environment for all our users.

As a result, we regret to inform you that your appeal has been denied, and your account will remain suspended. This decision is final and cannot be reversed. We understand that this may be disappointing news, but we must prioritize the well-being of our community and maintain a consistent enforcement of our policies. We encourage you to review our community guidelines to better understand the expectations we have for user behavior on our platform. Please do not create new accounts, since those will be taken down for ban evasion.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Wild so many chronic illness creators don't give a fuck about covid? pls I beg if you're a chronic illness creator, look into disability justice. Listen to disabled people as well & understand covid NEVER went away.

You think your chronic illness is bad, it'll get worse with repeat infections.

Always glad to see masks back in healthcare… but I wish we would stop being reactionary and be proactive instead.

We know masks work.

That’s why they bring them back in response to outbreaks.

Keep masks in healthcare year round and you will save lives!

USA: Mask rules are returning to Bay Area health care settings from Nov 1 as COVID, flu, and RSV cases rise.

Counties including Contra Costa, Santa Clara, Sonoma, Napa, San Mateo, and Santa Cruz will require masks for workers, and in some cases patients and visitors, through spring.

Think about it.

How many infections a year would you say is enough?

Is there a ceiling to this “immunity debt?”

Or are we digging down to get out of a hole.

Does Holly Hunter have terrible taste in romantic co-leads? Or is it terrible luck that she is paired with Richard Dreyfuss in both this and Always? Renata’s (Hunter) family all dislike Sam (Dreyfuss)...

New #mutualaid post for October. I'm traveling out of state this month to Colorado to visit my fiance, and groceries are a lot more expensive here than where I live. I've raised enough for groceries for the next two weeks, but with little leftover.

Covid is not over.

People are still dying and becoming disabled every day.

We rushed “back to normal” for the economy, not because the threat had passed.

When you wear a mask, you’re not only protecting your health, you’re saying you don’t believe anyone is expendable.

“Study challenges notion that Covid is ‘mild’ for children.”

You mean, just like EVERY OTHER STUDY on Covid in children?

This shouldn’t be framed as a surprise, or even news, but as established fact. The real question is why we’re still not trying to stop it.
