this sucks so hard we need an alternative to tumblr's format but using tech like lemmy

The audacity for them to try this when we require pronouns and display them prominently but sure, we must be really committed to the bit. So much that we have several communities and do reading groups as well.

Maybe they should join us in reading through Trans Liberation, they might actually learn a thing or two.

I'm so glad I ditched that instance for here. I might lurk a lot but I know this place has got my back. I love my comrades!

That's fair! I'm sure there are decent ones out there, it's finding them that seems to be difficult in no small due to tech culture (and especially combined with corpo culture). 😔

Hearing the things my partner has been through on various projects I gotta agree with this meme.

Great post, I'm way overdue for reading this. Also sharing the file with all my friends is praxis.

You first. Follow your leader.

I'm relatively new here, so with that context in mind... I'm glad I was able to find out this place exists after it disappearing on but even so, opening to federation like this should not come at the cost of our trans comrades and comrades of color. I'm all for defeding from all but grad (and maybe lemmy.ml), as well as keeping applications in place for the foreseeable future. People are well aware of this place by now; Those that want to participate will find a way, or lurk as they learn.

From what I remember, it goes like this: Shark is cuddly, you can use plausible deniability since sharks are "cool" and often considered a "boyish" animal (for those closeted), and its colors match the trans flag.

I hold no love for the corpo and their trying to capitalize on the phenomenon is distasteful to say the least, but in a cishetero world that denies softness (physically and emotionally) I think it's a small comfort.

Beautiful photos, thank you for sharing. What struck me most about the architecture was the use of color, especially bright or pastel ones. And lots of road space but little to no cars, just pedestrians or cyclists. It's nice. The traditional houses look super cool, too.
