Remember, EM POC only!

This message is to my EM POC comrades: Angel loves all of you.

Especially as of late, I have truly been feeling like this community has worked wonders in keeping me stable when it comes to handling the massive jar of mayo that this site can be sometimes.

How are you all?

      Iirc there is a mastodon instance specifically for black people so I think something like that for Lemmy could definitely work!

      I don’t use Twitter or its clones because I prefer message board style formats so I’d enjoy that

      White leftists do a phenomenal job at reminding me how little daylight exists between them and their full-fascist settler brethren

      Word. I have accounts on other fediverse instances and I never fucking use them for that reason, they’re not all that different from reddit. Hexbear at large is the only place that seems decent and if it didn’t have this comm I don’t know that I’d want to be on this site either.

      If you did make a Cookout I’d join

      I run https://novo-atlantis.null.media/ which is meant to have a vibe kinda like that. We’re super tiny, the only active posters are myself and an anarchist belarussian refugee. My white friend owns the actual server hardware, but they aren’t involved in admin aside from the hosting. I threw a bunch of shit up so we’d have a TOS and to avoid the massive racism problems on the fediverse, we only do allow list federation. There’s a lot of spanglish in there and I had hoped to build some kind of border vibes thing, but I’ve been struggling just to live.

      Happy to change things up too if you want to collab. Won’t hurt my feelings if you don’t
