I've been totally blind since birth. I was diagnosed with MS in 2014. I'm a huge #StarWars fan and love #Fanfiction especially if it has a happy ending. I also love #StarTrek, #Babylon5, and #Dune. I love #fantasy like #PERN and #Valdemar.

@austinnix Good luck!

@austinnix It only takes ten sentences to make one and supposedly it sounds a bit better. I am just trying to figure out if that's true or not.

@austinnix Have you tried the new personal voice yet?

Anyone can become disabled at any time. It’s one of the few minority groups you can always join.

Even if you do everything “right”. Even if you’re young and healthy. Even if you “try hard”

It’s not a moral failing. It’s a part of life.

If more people would accept that and work with us, we would all be better off.

@Flight757 Gross! I'm so glad you're better now.

@Flight757 I'm glad you got out. Are you Okay?

A protest guide from #MEAction for folks with ME/CFS, Long Covid, and other chronic illnesses that cause limited energy:

meactions.org/_files/ugd/b5886

"We hope this guide can help activism become more intersectional and enable those attending events to do so as safely as possible."

@mecfs @longcovid

#USPol #MEcfs #LongCovid #POTS #Fibromyalgia #NEISvoid #ChronicIllness #Disability #Resist #Protest #WearAMask

Why?

All people deserve to have a voice and speak out for what they believe in or ways they want to seek change. Not everyone has equal opportunities to do that. Often some of our most important voices get left out of the collective. We need to ensure all people and their voices, no matter how they need to be expressed, are included.

If you're on here and hearing your friends say they're going to #BlueSky 'cause they're “getting better reach” — remind them what always happens next.

They lure people in with engagement, then shadowban, censor, and sanitize once the politics get too real — especially when it comes to #Palestine.

Investing time and energy into these corporate-lite platforms is a trap. We’ve seen it over and over: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok — now BlueSky. It’s the same playbook with new branding.

Mastodon isn’t perfect, but at least it's not selling you out the second you speak truth.

Tell your people: don’t chase numbers. Chase liberation.
#FreePalestine. Always. 🖤❤️💚✊🏽

This #Pride month, I don't want cishet people to change their profile to pride themed, or post about how they want queer people to feel safe around them.

I want them to be unbearable to people espousing casual prejudice around them. To call out sexist, homophobic, racist, transphobic comments, especially when framed as a "joke". To say this is unacceptable to their faces.

Keeping the peace is a privilege for those unharmed by the status quo. Raise hell instead.

@NightDrake You'll love them all three. I am rereading the third one, The Blood Traitor right now. I read the same way you do; in pieces

2025-06-05

@NightDrake Aw! Thanks! How far are you in the Prison Healer?

2025-06-05

@NorcalGma2 I am so glad you are starting to get better.

Today I went to Happy Harry's RibFest and got there just as they opened at 11 this morning. I do this every year if I can just to kick off my summer. As always, I ate too much and bought roasted pecans. Not eating dinner tonight.

@FreakyFwoof I have to remember there's a t in the word when I'm writing it.

This.

Comment by hisham_nm, the htop guy, to someone complaining about people being emotionally attached to the ISS and that it’s ok and that it will be replaced with something new:

“We are attached to it because it represented an era of peace and international cooperation in the 90s.
US, Russia and many other countries working together to advance science. At that same time, Israeli and Palestinian leaders were shaking hands at the White House, the Berlin Wall had fallen just a few years before and Apartheid in South Africa was finally over.
The ISS felt like a step towards a Star Trek future.
Now they're telling me they're scrapping it and want to give the next space station to a private company, in an era where the new robber barons are the techbro billionaires cosplaying as space moguls, Boeing builds airplanes with pieces literally falling off the sky, Israel has killed 40,000 people in Gaza, Russia keeps bombing Ukraine, and a reality show rapist is leading the US polls.
Damn right we're emotionally attached to the ISS”
