All I said was follow black ppl to help diversify, asked where Beyoncé was, and a ranted about still being on Twitter.

This is freakin ridic.

@ThisPlaceAgain I am so mad. I saw this before I went to sleep and I had trouble getting to sleep. It makes *me* want to quit the site, and anyone who knows me knows how addicted I am. What the hell is wrong with people.

@ThisPlaceAgain To be honest I had a little bit of a sinking feeling when I first saw your posts a few days ago because I was like "oh no, some people aren't gonna take well to this." I thought about saying something to warn you, but I felt like that would just make me the friendly face of the whole racist complex trying to quiet you down. And maybe things had gotten better? But I guess not. UGH. Damnit Mesha, I want names. Who is driving you out of here. We can't stand for this.

@misc @ThisPlaceAgain Her toot was funny af, and it was also true 😁

I liked that quite many went on and said hello, made a little confession about being a nerd, apologized, and hit follow :D

She needs to install ivory/mammoth or Mona so she can have acces to built in gifs and chase the fuckers out of her mentions. Someone would sure build her a custom auto-reply button with some “GAGF” gif.

@boby_biq @ThisPlaceAgain Honestly there should be a bat signal for racist fuckshit, and a volunteer ally brigade to come in and tell people to cut that shit out.

I mean sure yes, but the culture must change in general. And it is changing. Just veeeery veeeeeery slooooow… 🐌

Quoting will sort some of out. And again, the Meta/Barcelona.

All we need to these platforms to be finally connected so everyone can stay in their preferred cozy corner and still have the ability to see the others.

@boby_biq Yeah. The cozy corners are key. CWs are kind of a naive failed way to achieve that. Hometown (where you can write posts visible only on your instance) seems like a more promising direction.

@misc
well good luck with that on your “cozy little” mastodon.social.
Something like Twitter circles or groups would be good maybe, and to have proper DM.

Dunnnnooooo 🤷🏻‍♀️

@misc @boby_biq @ThisPlaceAgain

This is what we used to use quote tweets for back in the day

A "quote boost to friendlies" is ... sort of a dogpile, but punching up?

An underdogpile!

@trochee @boby_biq @ThisPlaceAgain That sounds almost adorable. Then again I guess dogpile kinda does too.
