My local community would have me hanged because they're afraid I'll "trans their kids" or some shit.
Microblog Memes
A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I appreciate your shout out, having to be in bed most of the day, especially in these kinds of times, is even more frustrating than it would be otherwise. Hugs to you too, comrade.
I have gotten to know a neighbour, they help with small things when they can, and I try to radicalise them at every opportunity lol, but on a serious note I think just knowing and having someone like me to consider has had a serious impact on their views (on benefits, landlords, government scapegoating, and all sorts). Our existence is radical. The system wants us dead, and as fucking difficult and painful and exhausting as it is, every time we make it to tomorrow, it is an act of defiance.
Just be careful of Tankies trying to get you to join their Jinping and Putin cult.
What about all of the above? 😞
Thank you btw - people need to hear how they, no we, are not alone.
To anyone that needs to hear it though: get out if you can - there are many places inside the USA that are more welcoming than others. Not everyone can, and it hurts the electoral college voting for the future to not remain inside MAGA counties, but perhaps that ship has sailed regardless - take care of yourself first, you are worth keeping around!:-) 💗

I always appreciate seeing content coming from you - thank you so much for sharing of yourself:-) 😊
I think a good way to cope is to identify what you believe to be the main cause of this and then identify real actions that will fight against it. Most important is that it is something actionable where you can do real things to fight. No matter how radical.
The federal government is going to be gutted and destroyed. It's time to focus on local change. Nationwide isn't going to work for a while but focus on your city, your state, your block and your house. Live your values everywhere. Focus your attention on what matters and can be controlled
I've been reaching out to people in my life, reminding them we will still have each other, and we will have each other here too, fellow Lemmings.
