you're campaigning up until the very last minute for that worst taste award! 

maybe 4th grade? sleepovers at my house with my best friend on the weekend we'd play halo and tales of symphonia until 3am
first time you visited another country?

can't believe lucky starzzz is the first one out......

Lucky deserved to go further, her looks were freaking incredible in her episodes (except that last one 😭). And Joella lost that lip sync in my opinion.
 
In other news, Lexi giving top 4 and Sasha Colby like vibes. I am so rooting for her! 

This season’s very promising so far. Drag race kinda fell off hard for me for a while but these last 2 seasons were so good with such strong casts (the recent all stars seasons have been terrible though). Current favs are Arrietty, Joella and the Jorgeous one. Joella is so fucking funny to me like,,, her telling Lucky unprovoked how she’s going home during untucked like besjdjf crown her! Need them to cast more queens that are genuinely delusional

You guys I’m really really enjoying Rednote. It only took the algorithm less than 30 minutes to figure me out. I’m seeing a lot of my previous American TikTok creators + new Chinese creators who I like. The user interface is nearly identical. I’m content with this so far 

Sure hate speech is free speech but also social media platforms are not the public square. These are privately owned companies who have the right to determine what kind of content is permitted on their platform. And then there's the whole mess of advertisers who don't want their brand associated with nazis. Also there are LGBTQ people on the meta team who will voice concern and outrage about what effect on society their work is having.
So Zuck reversing the ban on transphobic hate speech is protecting free speech. Yay. Meanwhile the Vivienne is dead due in no small part to the constant barrage of conservative hate she got.
Meta is communicating their values on trans rights with this decision and believe me the message is heard loud and clear

It shouldn't be. It's doing damage to actual people offline. 
 
 
I don't think you're taking seriously what's happening to LGBT people, or at least trans people. Which sucks bc if you're gay or bi, they won't just stop with trans people. 
 
Right Wing thinkers, influencers, and politicians are using these sites to run campaigns against trans people broadly and any specific trans person they don't like. You have politicians using the deadnames of trans people to call them child predators. You have them using children as a weapon to fear monger that our existence inherently makes us pedophiles. They're doing all this with the support of Elon Musk (who is rumored to have sexually abused his trans daughter as a child and who did emotionally neglect and abuse her all the while having his fans attack her on social media and find her IRL). Now Zuckerberg, who is embracing neo-Nazism according to his now former lawyer is attacking and allowing attacks on LGBT people and religious/ethnic minorities. This is a coordinated rise of fascism. If not fascism, then still general right wing authoritarianism.

incitement to violence is not the only problem with hate speech, there's also direct psychological harassment and discrimination
Without rules and with unrestricted free speech, someone could run targeted campaigns against minority groups (as happened in the Third Reich, for example). Especially in social media where there are algorithms and numerous bots influencing political opinion, this is a major problem.

i can't stand mark zuckerberg. it's infuriating how he's allowing LGBT hate speech on meta while he continues to spread his cheeks for the republican party.
i downloaded xiaohongshu and you can actually get banned for misinformation and hate on this platform like of course the government will use this to censor things but also like, wow, it's really that easy to just make a policy?? then enforce it??

it's crazy 
i'm wondering what EU is going to do towards the more aggressive stance these tech companies are adopting now that they have support from Trump

The amount of misinformation/fear-mongering about this is driving me insane. But what do you expect on the internet.

I hope they are able to contain most of it before the winds start getting really bad again. I don’t live in LA but I visit all the time and me and my boyfriend talk about wanting to move there. I love that city so much and it’s really heartbreaking watching this. Seeing all these places and people’s home ‘s just burn away is devastating. I hope everyone in LA right now is ok. 

kim there’s people that are dying

No way we're actually arguing in the LA WILDFIRES THREAD.... 
 
I need you to be serious for a sec
