I have put my name in and am awaiting approval.

Browsing the federated timeline, I came across this post: in c/[email protected]

Just wanted to point out, homicidal fantasies are relatively common among the mentally ill, and it's one of the things we just don't talk about because of the stigma, because people react this way when you mention it to them. I glanced over the first couple paragraphs, and he repeatedly states that he is on medication right now, is not actually planning to murder anyone, and understands why he should not act on the impulsive thoughts.

I'd have to look at it more closely, but a mentally ill person talking about a symptom of a mental illness, on its own, doesn't feel like it merits a block. It feels like a mentally ill person talking candidly about what it's like to have that mental illness.

Saddened to find out today that apparently #Cohost, an indie nonprofit blogging site that was popular among artists, is shutting down. There was a lot of good content on there, and I know how it feels (techhub.social)
 

Saddened to find out today that apparently #Cohost, an indie nonprofit blogging site that was popular among artists, is shutting down. There was a lot of good content on there, and I know how it feels to see the place that you've been posting your thoughts and art for what could have been years suddenly evaporate, and for some people, I know it's just as they've been getting established there.

A shut down like this hurts everyone.

If anyone is coming over from co-host, or any other site that is going down, or a country like #Brasil / #Brazil that has banned your previous #SocialNetwork, or just needs help getting established on here in general, feel free to reach out to me. I am always an open volunteer for expanding the #Fediverse.

I also encourage anyone who has a Cohost account to go post on there to try and help the users find their way here.

We have until the end of the month to get them all over here!

So, before beginning my 4 months of parental leave in June, I wrote an article for @heiseonline describing, why one on #Threads should activate federation with the #Fediverse. I did this in in c/[email protected]

This is what I keep saying when people get distraught over it here. They keep talking about it, but so far, all we've seen is a handful of accounts that we can follow one-way. We don't know how much they'll actually do here.
