POV as an oldbie content creator about the US banning Tiktok


Decided to pontificate on the impending ban of Tiktok in the US, while many, many other data-harvesting and spying apps, like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and all the other mainstream platforms, continue to endanger and exploit everyone. Moral of the story: mainstream corporate owned platforms will ALWAYS betray you--stop giving them unilateral power over your online existence, and self-host your content on decentralized platforms like Mastodon, Peertube, and/or your own web server, THEN link to your content on the mainstream apps. You'll rest so much easier if you're not constantly living on the knife edge of potentially getting obliterated by a couple of algorithmic ones and zeroes, designed by misogynistic, transphobic, racist, patriarchal, capitalist tech bros!!

Made a ten-second #meme about the difficulties I have being a #freeTheNipple / #toplessEquality #activist #contentCreator who doesn't provide #sexWork content and gets pissed off when men ignore my whole mission for "highlighting the insane hypocrisy and #sexism of #gender based #censorship" by sexually harassing me in comments and DMs.
The "two button" meme featuring a muscular man sweating nervously as he tries to decide which of two buttons to press.
Button one: ban a patreon donor for sending me sexually harassing dms
button two: look the other way because the perverts are the only ones willing to send money


Content warning: Rant about how no one seems to care enough about Topless equality to speak out about it

Almost half a century ago #Portugal made a #revolution to conquer #democracy. But we're not quite there yet. The #political #power of the suburban village of #Oeiras uses and abuses power to censor what is different from its understanding. Where there is #censorship there is no democracy.

Content warning: extended thoughts about searchability on the fediverse


Lol whelp. I wanted to try #ChatGPT to see what it offered as an explanation for why the US still has #censorship that violates #genderEquality by applying inequally based on "what gender you look like" (aka #freeTheNipple aka #ToplessEquality) but they require a phone number to sign up to use it, and they won't let you use a fake virtual phone number. Fuck that then, I guess 🙃
A screenshot from the ChatGPT signup requiring a virtual number to sign up, with the caption "It looks like this is a virtual phone number (also known as a VoIP). Please provide a valid, non-virtual phone number to continue."

Content warning: feedback on setting up a discord and mastodon account for a new "outcast creator collective"-focused community


An experimental social media platform revealed that user moderation works; decentralized moderation can work well.

Related observation: Mastodon is decentralized.

Somebody reported me to myself, y’all. How’s your day going? 😀

Hint: if you don’t like my comparing Israel to Russia, go tell Israel to stop acting like Russia.

(And find out how the fediverse works before you go making an arse of yourself trying to censor me on my own personal instance.)

Pluming for freedom



Florida's governor and fervent Trump bootlicker, Ron DeSantis, sent jackbooted thugs to the home of a scientist in an effort to silence her from speaking out on his mishandling of Covid.

This is full-on fascist dictator games. They pointed guns at her kids and confiscated her PC.

You can't make this shit up.
