       No need to offer unsolicited advice. I will let people know if I have questions.

       Looking for an Instance that is a good home for a Black queer feminist scientist who cusses and talks politics. I’m seeing a lot of places with what I would consider to be excessive content warning requirements 😵‍💫 And other instances where I simply don’t know what the admin considers to be racism. Like, are we allowed to talk about whiteness?

       not being able to quote toot sucks out some of the fun <dare people to resist explaining to me why it's actually great that we can't use one of the things that makes #BlackTwitter fun>

       I'm also thinking about how my first image upload to my fediverse TL was an image of someone calling me anti-Black and anti-semitic slurs

       People telling me to use block and report like I’m new to social media are missing the point of me posting these

       Proofs have arrived! Get your library to order a copy, and hopefully I will also be able to get my chapter up on the arXiv.https://www.routledge.com/The-Routledge-Companion-to-Intersectionalities/Nash-Pinto/p/book/9780367652654#BlackandSTEM #BlackMastodon #Astrodon #Physics

       Whether it’s someone whitesplaining to a Black philosopher who is discussing what features make Black Twitter special … or other people planning out how to “help people understand” so that they will like Mastodon more 😬 My friends asking me questions about how to use it don’t care about our tech babble. They want to figure out the fastest way to connect to other people in a way that feels intuitive and *interesting*.
