Very exhausting but so are most important #justice fights against #government.
I just hope it will help more #POC & #disabled families in future from suffering unnecessary #traumas from #cops & coward #paramedics scared of telling cops to leave a #medical#crisis call when no cops are needed & only making things worse by letting #abusive cops stay around.
There's some diaspora #Asians on Vancouver Island (and several other places in Global North) who have severe #InternalizedRacism, to the point that they're not just #indoctrinated into #colonialism & capitalism but they're so self unaware of internalized racism that they don't even know when racist white folks #tokenize them to defend/justify racism & use them to push WS beliefs on their own peoples.
I lose my fu*king shit around Asians like this. They harm us Asians who fight for human rights.
Here's the thing: It's my #POC community & as I'm a part of that, some of my #responsibilities is to address it within that community. It's not #WhiteFolks' jobs to do that - calling out/calling in/educating #diaspora Asian folks suffering from #InternalizedRacism & hurting fellow #Asians.
Just like it's not POC's jobs to deal with white #racists - it's the responsibilities of white folks to deal with problematic bigots in their own communities.
Here's the other thing: Colonial governments love exploiting #IdentityPolitics. They benefit from #BIPOC folks who suffer from #InternalizedRacism. It's part of the #DivideAndConquer colonialism playbooks. They provide extra rewards to #POC people who are willing to #whitewash & defend almost anything, to non-white folks willing to sell their souls & willing to enact harms on their own peoples. They depend on both #greed & #desperation to exploit BIPOC with internalized racism issues.
@mutualaid The urgency cannot be overstateed as rent which is due in a week. Please, include 🏘️ in memo so I know where this goes. They've already dealt with eviction threats in the past and they can't deal with this again. Venmo/PayPal: @seelpah / CashApp: $SeelpahC
A critical vulnerability, identified as CVE-2024-20356, has been found in Cisco's Integrated Management Controller (IMC). This flaw allows for command injection, potentially giving attackers the ability to gain root access to systems. The vulnerability is located in the web-based management interface of the IMC, which is used for remotely managing Cisco hardware. The issue arises from insufficient user input validation in the IMC interface, allowing an authenticated, remote attacker with administrative privileges to inject malicious commands.
Security researchers from Nettitude have developed a Proof of Concept (PoC) exploit, named "CISCown," to demonstrate this vulnerability. The exploit involves sending crafted commands through the web interface, enabling attackers to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the underlying operating system of Cisco hardware. This PoC exploit is part of a toolkit developed by Nettitude and is available on GitHub. It uses parameters such as target IP, username, and password to automate the exploitation process and deploy a telnetd root shell service on compromised devices.
The release of this PoC exploit signifies a critical threat level for organizations using affected Cisco products. Gaining root access can lead to data theft, system downtime, and further network compromise. Cisco has responded by releasing software updates to address this vulnerability. It is strongly recommended that all affected organizations apply these updates immediately, as no known workaround mitigates this vulnerability.
The affected products include a range of Cisco servers and computing systems, such as the 5000 Series Enterprise Network Compute Systems (ENCS), Catalyst 8300 Series Edge uCPE, UCS C-Series M5, M6, and M7 Rack Servers in standalone mode, UCS E-Series Servers, and UCS S-Series Storage Servers. Users and administrators are advised to visit Cisco’s official security advisory page and the Nettitude GitHub repository hosting the exploitation toolkit for more detailed information and access to the updates.
Black trans people are more likely than white people or cis people to have poor experiences at their GP surgery. 19% of Black trans people have reported GP surgery staff not understanding their mental health needs (compared to 6% of white cis people and 13% of white trans people) NHS GP Patient Survey, 2021

*Very common w/many #POC cultures. It's not about $ for us either - saving $ is just a bonus.
The Heins are among a growing number of #CanadianFamilies sharing their property with different generations.
Across #Canada, the number of properties shared by #MultipleGenerations, two or more families, or one #family living with unrelated people has grown by 45% over the past 20 yrs — totalling almost one million homes in 2021, according to 2022 #StatisticsCanada.
Just launched my #MutualAid#fundraiser to get help to fund #dentures that I need to get asap (appt being booked upon raising enough to put down 50% deposit).
My insurance covers all extractions needed except for 2 & I have enough saved to cover that. I need #FinancialHelp to pay for the full set of dentures needed after - to eat & not be toothless.
Please #donate any amount you can & please share my link if you're unable to donate any funds
Can more folks please help to boost my #dentures#medical#fundraising link? I'm hoping to raise enough by April to book appointment to start getting full dentures made.
I don't have supplementals on my medical insurance to cover dentures. I only have enough to cover full extractions from dentist. I'm unable to work FT due to other medical related issues.
"The legal subordination of one sex to another – is wrong in itself, [...] it ought to be replaced by a system of perfect equality, admitting no power and privilege on the one side, nor disability on the other."
~ 'The Subjection of Women' by J. S. Mill (1869)
Did you know that John Stuart Mill was the first person in #British#Parliament to call for allowing #women to vote?
This petition also included the signature of the only #PoC, Sarah Parker Remond.
Need #AltText help on 2 images of exposed #Pretendians - one who tried doing smear campaign, when I spoke out about how she abused me, my family & using social media to con/manipulate ppl. She's dangerous & recruits naive young POC, vulnerable older POC, vulnerable white gals into sex work. 2 of my friends experienced this with her & they didn't believe my early warnings, til they were abused by her & abandoned in a town they knew no one.
If you can help me, let me know. Dangerous person.
Going public about this because 6 young #women were recruited, #abused & #exploited by this person & one other white ass #pretendian. Both travelling across #Canada because neither has any home(by privileged choice - which most of us #POC don't have). Grifting, sex working(which I'm OK with when it's adult choices) BUT recruiting vulnerable youths, giving them drugs, #pimp pulling in w/gifting mass materials & then forcing girls to PAY IT BACK. They're PIMPS.
I joke that I'm gay and homophobic but I really have no place in (usa) "queer community" of any sort and no desire to associate with it as a social concept despite basically only talking to trans ppl from other countries (mostly brazil) and one autistic japanese guy. I really dislike and have no relationship to any common usa "queer experience" which basically has nothing to do with me (or a lot of poc/disabled ppl/SWers) and I actively spite the superficial and sanitized solidarity without loyalty.
as my special bnuuy said, "you don't have to like someone to do right by them." a lot of ppl in the queer communities I've been in instead of understanding this choose to form cliques and shutter out anyone they dislike for any reason.
on a related note, I host a casual qtpoc creatives server on discord, if you want an invite.
Weirdly enough, I actually agree that there should be a white history month. Amber Ruffin brings it into perspective here...
(WATCH THE GODDAMN VIDEO BEFORE YOU COMMENT FFS!)
@TCatInReality agree! If the whites were educated the same way #POC were educated about their ethnicity we would be living in a different society altogether!
A person telling any #POC person, especially an #activist to not be so #uppidity is using #WhiteSupremist words to try to put POC people down & try to silence our voices in their own fakeass, racist & easily sussed out ways. We see, hear & know of you. You're the minority in humanity population.
