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.

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

Black people are far more likely to be sentenced to death than white people, especially if the victim is white.

Add your name to our petition to demand an end to the death penalty.

Abolish The Death Penalty Now

Capital punishment is a moral stain on our nation: Add your name to the growing calls to abolish the death penalty now.

Racism is embedded in the death penalty.

This World Against the Death Penalty Day and every other day of the year, we’re calling on our elected officials to work toward an end to capital punishment once and for all.

Graphic reading "Black adults compromise 14% of our nation's population but they account 41% of people currently on death row." Hands holding through jail cells.

No *kicks the constant need for approval including from people who I don't even like all that much that is gnawing at me and I'm currently in therapy for under the bed* that's a weird thing to say

If your World Mental Health activism is more focused on getting people into jobs over getting people with mental health issues to some form of support and good quality of life, you're doing World Mental Health day wrong

Happy Mental Health Awareness Day, yes depression and anxiety is important, yes everyone has "mental health" but this is your reminder that people with serious mental illness deserve support, understanding and are valued members of society too

Karen Hoyland, 58, who insists you were just fine until you got this autism nonsense in your head, has stated that this is typical of you and your non-stop drama.

Consistent! Person who says you’re not autistic gives you most shit for acting autistic

The person in your life who’s convinced you’re not really autistic at all is also the hardest on you about every single autistic trait you exhibit, it has been confirmed. Karen Hoyland, 58, who…

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

So apparently the key to getting around the verbal blocks is to temporarily hand over the front to my headmate so he can write out what we (let's be honest, he) has to say

BREAKING: Israel’s government just approved the first phase of the ceasefire deal and a ceasefire is supposed to go into effect immediately.

Israel killed at least 29 Palestinians today, according to Al Jazeera.

CNN headline: Israeli government approves Gaza ceasefire resolution

CNN article screenshot reads: Where things stand
• JUST IN: Israel's government has approved the US-brokered Gaza ceasefire and hostage release resolution, according to the prime minister's office. Officials have said the ceasefire will take effect
immediately.
• US presence: The United States is sending 200 troops to be on the ground to monitor the plan's implementation, a senior US official said. "No US troops are intended to go into Gaza," another official said.

Al Jazeera update reads: Four killed al-Sabra attack, bringing day's death toll to 29: Wafa

The Palestinian news agency has reported that four people have been killed in the Israeli attack we've been reporting in the Sabra neighbourhood in Gaza City.
That brings the day's death toll in Gaza to 29, according to the news agency, despite the ceasefire breakthroughs.

I didn't find out about him through you necessarily, but I do know you post about him a lot and the fact that you dislike him...let's say it coloured my judgement towards him immediately but considering what I read, that was hardly even necessary. Dude is a asshole
