i don’t want to see or be seen by CEOs.

This is from the TriMet website from a Jan 2025 article:

i accept your interpretation exclusively

reeeeally shows the cracks in the colonial logic dont it?

you would love the fediverse

did you know this cause i didn’t: borders and passports were an invention of the first world war. just a few generations ago, “illegal immigration” didn’t. fucking. exist.

so even THIS definition that people take issue with, is conservative!

i have a fun fact about this definition: originally Lemkin wanted to include ‘political groups’ as people who could be considered victims of genocide. the reason that part got cut was because if the UN adopted it, most or all UN members would be committing genocide. ☺️

so i’m never gonna tell you there is no infighting in fedi. there Absolutely Is. but i think what they meant by that comparison is the scale at which the network functions. fedi has a lot of little servers that you can skip around, rather than Big Tent everyone has to agree to be in.

my research was last year, and i gave both these guys heavy shit about it, so merks coulda listened and dropped them since. their contribution wasn’t that big anyway. whether lib-zio beliefs are a ‘counterweight’ to open zionism is a whole other conversation.

if you are a very poor american #healthcareWorker, who is seeking refuge or has taken refuge in #Canada, and your main need is fundraising, do NOT enter @todmaffin.com ‘s “community building” discord server as they have rules Very Firmly in place to protect their middle and upperclass members first.

All of the friends I have listed in #Gaza have been directly verified by me, as well as a dozen other people.
please show up for our Black, Indigenous, and other racialized neighbors as they receive the sharp end of the eugenics knife.

this friend needs help with paying for her tenuous housing. she was recently pushed out of a Candian discord server intended to help healthcare workers establish themselves in Canada. this server deleted her posts asking for help because their rules forbid #fundraising. which is kinda weird.

Finally, we have my friend, a refugee from #Portland to #Canada. Zara's sponsor spouse was so bad that she fled to Vancouver, BC. Zara is at the spearhead of queer refugees in Canada.
here is her interview:

I have known Ola for years now, thrown a fundraiser for her mother's medication, seen her accounts get deleted off IG +bsky repeatedly. She is a nurse, and has brothers and a little sister, Jannat.
