Hey, #activist types, now that #ACLU has decommissioned their Mobile Justice app, what is Plan B? The basic idea of recording law enforcement activity to document abuse is an important one. What’s the next best option?

A story of a #trans #activist's escape from #Crimea

#LiliyaKhvylka was under house arrest with an ankle bracelet. From Crimea she navigated her way through #Russia and #Belarus

The entire #LGBT community is an "extremist organization" in Russia and in the occupied areas you can be disappeared

She participated in the 2014 #Ukraine#Euromaidan protests

She is being tried in abstentia and faces 15 years in Russian prison

Won't get as much attention as the #murder of someone I'd never heard off in #Utah, but this suspicious killing of Vian Ruma, a young #environmental #activist in #Indonesia deserves as much, if not more, global attention.

We're losing too many of our future in #Asia.

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇵🇸💻🌱

I'm looking for a single #room from the 1 of September, anywhere in #Brussels. I am a native Italian speaker and I fluently speak English. I work remotely for a software company.

💡I have been a #techworkers #organizer 🤖 and #climatejustice #activist 🌿 for the last 5 years and I really look forward to meet people that can introduce me to the Brussels #grassroot political scene.

🗓️ I have 11 years of coliving experience. I am able to take care of myself and to keep shared spaces clean and in order once I'm done using them. I love to spend time together but at the same time, I strongly value boundaries and alone time.

💕 I am looking for a community with empathy and good vibes.

I sometimes smoke but it's no problem smoking only outside of the house. Budget between 600 and 700, utilities included .

✨New #introduction for my new Mastodon home:

Hi, I'm Emily! I'm interested in the human side of the web—using it to connect, not consume.

Among other things, I'm...

— an #artist, #activist, #writer, educator, speaker
— #ActuallyAutistic#AUDHD (#Autistic with an #ADHD booster pack 🚀)
— seeking community (human-to-human stuff!)
— excited (and terrified!) to be here

🖥️ I have an "okay enough" #website that would be thrilled to see you (it has BIG feelings, like me!): https://fromemily.com

Y’all. Andrea Gibson lost their battle with cancer this morning. About five hours ago, in fact.

They leave behind an unjust world with a little bit of magic from people like them. People who make the human experience worth fighting for.

Here’s a quote I posted from them earlier this year.

I welcome you to read a poem or listen to some spoken word from Andrea, to honor their life.

Rest in power, Andrea.

A quite nuanced expert investigation into possible #activist applications of #AI ☺️🤖 https://www.juniperbevensee.com/musings/does-ai-suck #LLMs
Personally I am in the anarchic "hate it" camp but even so, https://bsky.app/profile/juniperbevensee.bsky.social illuminates a lot about how bias and censorship are encoded into #ChatGPT & other commercial tools.
