Celebrating #Ace's #Glorious #Queerness This #AsexualityAwarenessWeek
#Asexual #folks are not only a #queer #minority in their own right, but they also significantly overlap with other queer minorities, with many aces identifying as #bi, #gay, #lesbian, #pansexual, as well as #transgender, #genderqueer, and #nonbinary

During my solidaristic eschewing of all #AMPTP #streaming services during the now resolved #WGA and still ongoing #SAGAFTRA #strikes, I've been relying on really bad #tv via the #RokuChannel #app.
The level of #tToxicMasculinity and low-key to blatant micro- and macro-aggressions towards various #minority groups, capped off by a guest star run by #StephenFry, finally took #Bones off my schedule.

From my (again, limit, #white perspective) I think #Facebook actually does a pretty good job of projecting a pleasant veneer to a wide diversity of people, including #black and #minority populations.
That isn't to say that Facebook doesn't harbor #Nazis and other #fascists and #bigots, because obviously they do. I just think the relationship with user experience is complicated.
It’s not enough to simply block bigots. I’m tired of folks telling me to just do that, as if that makes the problem go away. Would you close your eyes when you’re under attack, and pretend that the attack has stopped?
Telling a #minority to block their online attackers is no different. Stop telling us to ignore our attackers.
All other forms of bigotry get handled here in the #fediverse. Start handling #islamophobia the same way.
So yes, I might come over snarky once in a while, "odd", "strange", "nasty", "weird", "behaving like a troll" - which happens, when my social masking, that I'm primarly running for YOUR convenience, so I can interact with YOU, the "neurotypicals" and YOUR world, glitches, and you see the actual person looking through the cracks of the mask. Bear with it, after all, its so that YOU can feel "safe".
Mastodon is the best way to keep up with what's happening.
Follow anyone across the fediverse and see it all in chronological order. No algorithms, ads, or clickbait in sight.
