I kinda want to know if I am gonna lose another place where I can just talk about comics & stuff? Be noce to know I am safe on here. @jay.bsky.team

i think it is fair to request a statement from @jay.bsky.team on TRANS PEOPLE and where we fit in on @bsky.app.

i think as a transgender journalist, it's acceptable and makes sense for me to ask this

and so, the question, am i not a person as a trans girl and do i not deserve to feel safe here?

Trans people are under attack both in real life and on most internet platforms.

If @jay.bsky.team and the rest of Bluesky is too cowardly to take a stand for the trans community, this platform will die a quick and quiet death.

You’re not going to out-fascism Twitter. Hate to break it to you.

I joined Bluesky because I thought it was going to be a safe place for me as a trans woman. There was so much promise of it being a permanent social media home.

We all deserve a straightforward answer from management if they'll protect their users from harm, or if they'll protect abusers instead.

Juno and all trans women and trans folk in general deserve safety and respect. Why are we not doing that? @jay.bsky.team

This is an extremely fair question that needs to be answered and a fair request that needs to be taken seriously. Do something.

Seems like it should be a trivial question to answer, assuming Jay does in fact support trans people and want to keep us safe.

Always bring it back to the Epstein Files.

Release the Epstein Files—seat Rep. Grijalda.

That's Trump's weakness and Achilles cankle.

He can't run or hobble away from it.

Republicans know it.

They know they radicalized their base for the past decade.

They know Trump is all up in those files.

The only time I ever get cussed at here at work is on 2nd Shift. Always for something out of my control or that I didn't know. It really just makes a terrible shift more so.

Bet you can't guess what State the man was from?

I am calling Bull Crap on that twist at the end of #DCKO issue 1. I thought it was suppose to be seeing the DC Characters fight. To add that twist just makes it another vs that one. So now we know that whoever is that one will win their bracket. I was looking forward to having a hero face temtation.

Today we need positive stuff......gonna try to do that, but honestly, the a$$hole$ leading my country will probably do something atrocious that needs comment.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
