My thread was exclusively about culture, language, religion...<br/><br/>and yet someone decided to remind me that Black Americans can be colonizers too. 2026-02-15T21:21:10Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsf2l8xhmp4j9e3ll3vre0wp2zuasu92znnr690e9p9aq8nku80nmgzyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wkd94wqt Something that I&#39;ve noticed, both in the fediverse and other places, is that when marginalized people within the US complain about the US, non-USians arrive to remind us that we&#39;re still American, and therefore the ways we&#39;re marginalized don&#39;t matter and they don&#39;t care... in a way they do not talk to or respond to privileged Americans.<br/><br/>They use Black and Indigenous people in the US as acceptable targets for their hatred of the US instead of the people driving policy and holding the world hostage. 2026-02-15T21:17:48Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8nddggm8295sq7aln4fnkc9uz7g5xw5yxqszqzk6rhlyurxp6g7czyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wkjrzuhj Alien (1979 film) is so relatable, because you&#39;ll be trying to escape parasites in a capitalist hellscape, and right in the middle of it, you&#39;re reminded that your cat is somewhere it&#39;s NOT supposed to be 😭 2025-12-20T19:07:11Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs84fv2zy7ekc5s33ara8w6vu7lx3e2pdzvl2jgtggag5n0lz04esszyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wk9aj0je social media apps: Follow these accounts if you want to see what they post 😃<br/><br/>social media apps: We&#39;ve updated the algorithm so now you&#39;ll never see the people you follow unless they go viral 😃<br/><br/>social media apps: Also you can only go viral if you&#39;re an attractive, rich white person, or pushing far-right content 😃 Hope you enjoy racist, antisemitic, transphobic, and anti-science conspiracy theories! 2025-10-18T08:20:30Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8da8qdel4g3gqxsvkhqucy8hajp8k9rk8vl6gxeugm6p8lq57eqqzyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wk49tqne there&#39;s something really poetic about going to a prestigious university that neglected my humanities department to prioritize computer science students and making sure they landed placements at Microsoft and Meta, where they get salaries to pay off their student debt and I certainly don&#39;t <br/><br/>and now these same corporations and these same fucking graduates are stealing my work and the work of others like me to train some useless fucking water guzzling, planet cooking, community poisoning &#34;AI&#34; machine<br/><br/>and my university is still asking me for fucking money 2025-03-20T20:03:39Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsfyjkfxpz5kskaf5wsxvgnxgklz84q5m8t257zgwr5z5sgxv5znkczyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wkf0644s In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2sz6ydxqzcdd7esdpu0q55ujkr7nfmg7uczqt6e9hhttsmwkt6cspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qnxmx9l'>nevent1q…mx9l</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Donald Trump is a known abuser of women who was rewarded with the US presidency twice.<br/><br/>Cis men don&#39;t lie about being trans to get access to women to abuse because they don&#39;t need to.

I&#39;m a US citizen who lives abroad, and I recently traveled to the US for a camp workshop job thing.

They will not let me cash or deposit this.<br/><br/>Also another fun thing, because I do not live in the US, I cannot typically open a bank account in the US and I actually closed my previous US bank accounts because they don&#39;t service customers who live abroad.<br/><br/>Any suggestions on what to do? lol 2024-08-28T14:30:17Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqst9shfgxuts2mjhsh7cajfh6cjdmhdx36g9sjnkcx35yv8rw7clxqzyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wksgkg4g me: i&#39;m working on a new book that&#39;s kinda like &#34;Be My Druidess&#34; by Type O Negative.<br/><br/>me: do any of my readers like Type O Negative? if i say that my book has that vibe, do you understand what i mean?<br/><br/>a bunch of readers: you mean ....like... the blood...?<br/><br/>me: :blob_melt_sob: well that&#39;s a no 2024-07-02T11:58:02Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsyk4lz0l6cqqtn4zgsrmvjud4rjl4r33uzcmm0jh8jdck78x7tytczyp5dl82rkzajfalkqrg0xq589kmz56kkzs6drwv4lwsm9ynzey2wkz0jw8t why is Astarion&#39;s head so small compared to his shoulders? is it just me? why is everyone so invested in him, he looks ODD 😭 2024-06-09T14:06:35Z
