For all the new people here on Bluesky, welcome!

Be sure that you are adding Alt text to images here. It will help your posts be found easier and has the added benefit of helping those with vision deficiency!

You can turn on this option in settings so you don't forget as well. ✨🦆

The He Gets Us campaign is run by The Servant Foundation, which has been waging lawfare on gay and trans people through tens of millions in donations to the far-right legal activist group The Alliance Defending Freedom since 2018

This got me blocked. And that’s ok. Free to curate your skyline as you wish. But it is rather ironic that you say you want to hear opposing views and then instantly block an opposing view immediately after.

I cannot even begin to state how much of a profound failure of leadership we have seen in the last 24h re: Jordan Neely.

Virtually every one of us is closer to being in Neely’s shoes than we think. How could any leader struggle to condemn violence? Being poor or sick is not a license to be killed

see that’s just the thing. you treat social media as a game to be won, which is why you celebrate over and over when a human being ended their life, as though it’s your personal crowning achievement.

because you have no greater insights to share with anyone, just grievances to create.

Now that alt text is visible to sighted users, it's a good time to plug @alt-text.bsky.social. Tag the bot in a reply to a post that has one or more images without alt text, and then the bot uses OCR to extract the text and reply with the OCR'd text as alt text. (This only works for images of text.)

Tragically timely that we started a discussion about mental healthcare for BIPOC and I see the death of Jordan Neely being shared all over Twitter.

And worse: racist news outlets like NYP have the nerve to call him an “unhinged vagrant.”

Despite the fact that we (in many cases) know better, we're inevitably going to have some security issues.

If you find one, please send us an email: [email protected]

If you want us to, we'll publicly credit you as a contributor!

(We likely will run a bounty program in the future, just not yet.)

And let me not get into the strong Black trope that also plays into effect of how Black people don’t get proper medical treatment cause of belief we have higher pain tolerance (it’s a thing). That’s why I don’t like being called strong. I’m not. I’m a crybaby bitch and I’m proud of it 😭fk that

i wrote about bluesky, black twitter, and sex work

bluesky has an opportunity to be better than twitter ever was by establishing *early* protections for the marginalized communities that shape its culture

also got "tiddies on the skyline" published on techcrunch dot com

For Bluesky to thrive, it needs sex workers and Black Twitter
If Bluesky wants to be a genuine rival to Twitter, it needs to protect sex workers and its Black community.
