Okay I’m calling it.

I hate Bluesky. It used to be joyful, safe. Not any more. It ruins my mood and has done for ages.

I’ll keep the account for my witches and my trans sibs. Occasionally.
Normal means average, Mediocre.

I won’t be offended if folks want to unfollow. BB ⛤⃝

Maybe don’t go to the Harbar + Kitchen?
Imagine being transphobic in BRIGHTON 🤮🤮🤮

Well that’s a surprise. In no way whatsoever.

After watching The Traitors Celebrities UK I’ve just realised that Charlotte Church and Charlie Kirk have essentially the same name. But could two people be more different?

Charlotte Church voice and heart of an angel.

Charlie Kirk voice and heart of a monster.

The beautiful (inside and out) Charlotte Church

This is what politics needs. Firm, proactive, confident convincing.
Not the weak right wing populism of Starmerite Labour always on the back foot, reacting to Deform policies.
Deform speak confidently too, but they don’t have a clue what they are doing so they just push hate.
Greens have policies

FEDERAL AND STATE.
Wow you are a brainwashed little political zombie huh?

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

Citations and verifications of short form media?!
Jesus fucking Christ🙄

And the fallacy bot keeps spinning.
Maybe they’ll pick you Auntie Thomasina. Be a dependable and vigorous little pet.
Not me and not many of us.
No deals, no cis saviours. Binding guarantees or no votes

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

Typical political strategy. Blame those you oppose for what you yourself are doing.
Just rhetorical bullshit and sophistic cartwheels
You pin all toe holes in people who don’t care if you live or die.
The rest of us are too used to betrayal now. We won’t follow Judas goats to the killing floor

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

By you yes. But it doesn’t matter. I verify. And I remember.
These are not our heroes our saviours or our allys. They are useful only because they are less shit than MAGA.
That is the ABSOLUTE best they can be.

Well that’s untrue. I mean I know you’re a political animal and all so being somewhat cyclopean is in your nature, but don’t fucking patronise me. There are hundreds of dem senators, and Congress people at federal and state level who have expressed a wish to abandon our rights to make them electable

“Weirdly, there are people who want to distract or hide that Democrats are nearly unanimous in protecting trans people's rights.”

Really? Ask a trans person. We actually pay attention. Dems blamed us for them losing and debated betraying trans rights to be more electable. Too many like Newsom, dont

Nope. They CHOSE to go full anti-tans and authoritarian.

No excuses that they are too incompetent to moderate their own creation

Nah. it's that simple.
When certain specific demographics start getting ICE'd and openly slagged off by the CEO and team, whilst other unpleasant ones are protected, it's EXACTLY that simple.

Trans people built this culture.
But after the Xwitter refugees came
Trans people now:-

Why would you need to suddenly hire a "Senior Counsel" Jay?

Are you planning to Rowling the asses of everyone who criticises your shitty takes?

Is that the business model? Funded by damages you win from your own disgruntled users? your mentor Darth Musk must be going...

We know tech bros eventually catch the transphobia off other tech bros. She caught it from Elon, this mini tech bro has undoubtedly caught it from her.

You calm down sycophant

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

Its just more tech bros. I just assume no at this stage. They're all transphobic fucknuckles

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

That's a creative way of saying tough shit, "moderators" are gonna block those they don't like

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

But they are boosted by Jay and as it turns out, techbros eventually morph into their predecessors (EG Jay to Elon)

Are there any good Bluesky alternatives built on AT?

Megan @mesoho.bsky.social · 1d

And there it is. I knew it was there, but you were pussyfooting around it

The penis slur

I was being respectful but you HAD to

This is why I offered the compromise of secure safe areas within the refuge for non inclusive women if a trans woman was around
You offered "fuck off trans folks" goodbye

Or to put it another way, not enough of us exist to have separate facilities. Segregating us form our fellow women would effectively force us into solitary confinement or travel halfway across the country to a special facility where we are all dumped. We are not a risk to women
