#fedibirthday — Public Fediverse posts

Oggi é un anno che sono arrivata su mastodon! Mi piace ogni giorno di più. Ho trovato un sacco di bella gente e in un intero anno non ho avuto interazioni negative, anzi! La mancanza di algoritmi continua ad essere una ventata di aria fresca! Il lato bello di internet :BlobCat_Love:

Update: I received over 40 pro-mask messages of people wearing N95 or similar respirators! I think there are even more, I lost count a few times. Thank you SO much to everyone who participated and helped take care of themselves and their communities.

For my birthday & Stonewall Riots anniversary tomorrow (June 28), I would love if you would wear an N95 or comparable mask! I especially invite allies, friends & family of disabled people, and anyone who attends work/school/hobbies/etc where someone else wears a respirator to wear one. (A respirator is the technical term for masks with N95 or comparable protection ratings.)

It would mean even more if you wore your well-fitting respirator in public, or told some friends about it! Please join us at #SaltingTheVibes or #YallMasking across the internet. I can’t wait to see the top part of your faces or read what you have written, posted, filmed, etc.

As for the Stonewall tie-in, Queer people are higher risk for Long Covid, and yet pride events are often inaccessible to many queer & disabled people. If you’re going to a pride event this weekend and wear a respirator, you are actively helping protect your communities from developing chronic health conditions, severely worsening existing chronic illness, and frankly, death.

I’m only asking you to wear a respirator at some point on or near June 28. If you only do it for the photo, at least you learned where to find one, and practiced wearing it again. But who knows, if we’re lucky, you might find it more comfortable than you thought, or even remember how great it is to not have people see your facial expression, and wear a respirator a bit more frequently.

Actor Matt McGorry says:

My asks are very simply masking, at the very least, in places where disabled and immunocompromised people have to be: grocery stores, medical settings such as doctors, offices, pharmacies, hospitals, and transportation like planes, trains and buses.

Even as an act of solidarity, picking a couple of those places, making a commitment to that and making that known is incredibly important. As someone who feels extremely isolated and abandoned by the rest of society, I don’t have the capacity any more to ask individual people in my life if they will take this on. That’s what the video was for.

And that’s what the art is for. Thank you so much.

If you’re able and would like to, you can buy me a matcha or two (ko-fi).

Happy Birthday to us

ibe.social is 2 years old today. Our little #Sharkey instance feels all grown up.

Thanks to everyone who joined and stayed, or moved on. You're all part of the Bumble family ​:beewinking:​

Bloody hell, I've just realised that I have been on Mastodon, (with this account) and also not had a Xitter account for 2 years today.

That's kinda cool :)

@_elena happy #fedibirthday ;)

For my complaints on the Fedi, design, politics, academia, and evironmentalism, follow me, I've plenty of rants to come :reviewer2:

You can also follow me for my drawings and art, or updates on my craft-led ethnoGRAPHICS PhD.

You can also not follow me at all, that's fine, I also get tired of myself sometimes.

Today I'll be also posting my first #weeknotes post, so check here later if you're curious to know what I've mumbling over last week.

For now, happy #FediBirthday to me

Today is my #FediBirthday , so here a little thread to resume my first year here.
To be fully honest, my very first account was opened a couple of days before on a different instance, but since I consider Mastodon.Design my proper fedi home, where I really started to be actively part of the community, I think is more appropriate to celebrate the day I joined here.
As every human aggregation, the #Fedi has its share of drama, racism, and polarism, but my experience overall has been positive

Ich habe mein #FediBirthday verpasst. Seit genau gestern bin ich 4 Jahre schon dabei. Danke an #Mastodon und der vielen lieben Mitbürger hier auf dieser Instanz.

@milan - seit wann gibt es eigentlich diesen Service schon?
