So when #MuskyTwitter was purchased I joined Mastodon, Post, Spill, Spoutible and BlueSky. Post is going belly up on 5/31. I left Spill because of members policing the way I engage on social media. If I wanted to be critiqued and criticized in my downtime I could go read my course evaluations. Now spam complaints on Mastodon?? I may need to just delete everything except the dark place. #BlackSTEM #BlackFedi #BlackTwitter #BlackMastodon #BlackFediverse #NoireSTEMinist

Seriously heard someone saying they don't listen to many black artists, because they aren't really into rap. Bitch please, feel free to share songs from Black artists from any genre. Here is one of my favorites, if you like this song please check out her other work:

Avatar really did rip off Dune, and don't get me started on Star Wars.

A friend cam over yesterday to talk. At 65 he's decided to go to therapy to deal with issues that have gone unresolved in his life.

We sat and I listened for hours about his hopes and dreams and how the pursuit of them through out his life, has left him feeling dissatisfied and empty.

I praised him for his willingness to understand himself more and his desire to be at peace in the time he has left.

It's never to late to make changes. It's never to late to find peace.

I know, I am nostalgic, but I refuse to update #twitter on my phone (anyhow, I’m not using it anymore since Nov. 2022) -

just to keep that cute old bird icon …

Wtf is going on with #Mastodon? #Tusky wasn't working, so I just un-installed and tried 3 other apps. All are slow/not working/loading.

Update: The images are working again!

We worked with Wasabi in getting the illegal content removed, and they re-instated our account.

We will work with them in getting better procedures for preventing this issue. Also we will get Premium support to get quicker responses in the future. (Donations are welcome :-), see https://lemmy.world/post/12531572)

Thank you for your patience!

"Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand.”

I'm gonna be honest y'all, it's felt dark lately, and for good reason, LGBTQ+ rights in the balance, an election coming up, women struggling to get basic Healthcare, mass shootings, SCOTUS, the environment. The list goes on and on, and the media twists everything to sound even worse, or just straight up ignores actual news. But here's the thing, I know a lot of you, and the fact that you exist in the world gives me hope. You care about the future and you want good things, and so do I, and as long as that spark is there, we have hope. So, let's focus on some good today! Share a good headline, some positive news either on a larger scale or just something personal, a nice picture you took, a funny meme or video, whatever made you feel good or at least, gave you a smile. Let's share some joy!

Don’t say insurrectionists. Don’t say there’s such a thing as #TheBigLie. Don’t say gay. Don’t say CRT or DEI. Don’t say you’re protesting (some: is illegal in FL). Don’t say immigrants enrich America & increase the GDP. Don’t say climate change… #DeathSantis & his Republican cronies have destroyed Florida. “While Florida sinks into the ocean, Republican lawmakers wanna use their supermajority to ban the phrase “climate change” from state law.” -Carlos G Smith

I’m not kidding.👇️ #ClimateChange
