Honour Run update. All but my Tav (an orc barbarian named Hobb) were killed fighting the Githyanki in front of the mountain pass. He was one hit away from a TPK when the final enemy fell.
I went to the Creche, but totally forgot how to do that bit and nearly got obliterated multiple times.

so the official bluesky policy position is that you can't tell someone to kill themselves but you can tell a protected minority category that you hope that state kills them. Am i getting that right.
Are they threatening trans users directly? No. Trans folks in the US have been targeted repeatedly. That's awful and you have my sympathy.
Within the context of a single post we wouldn't consider it a direct threat or targeting a protected category. Ie send trans folks to concentration camps.

"Is this user toxic?"
So the metric you wish to use is based on middle school social politics.
So the metric you wish to use is based on middle school social politics.
Let's address a couple of questions here:
1) is this user toxic?
2) are they making a threat sending trans people to camps?
3) how do you address harassment?
4) how does toxicity currently work? How will it work?
Apologies, this should be a blog.

@aaron.bsky.team hi Aaron, sorry to bother you but can you explain why it's not against ToS/Community Guidelines for cis people to threaten trans people with concentration camps? People have been actioned for less than this - why is this not also considered toxic discourse?

When I was very small I saw a children's show where they said cereal is bad for you because of sugar.
Food is fuel and sugar is a fuel that burns too quickly.
They illustrated this by pouring a "magic fluid" on the cereal to "activate" it and then set it on fire.
I was shocked.

it’s wild that the heritage foundation wrote in text that the assault on trans woman particularly in sports is their first step in their efforts to completely abolish all Title IX protections and liberals still don’t believe it’s about more than trans women in sports

I'm a white Arab American. Most ppl would never know that's my background by looking at me. The day after 9/11, family friends, who did not know, where at the house and openly talking about how all Arabs and Muslims in the US should be rounded up into camps. I was 12 years old. We were never united.
This is the "Charlie Brown had hoes" of the center now.
You didn't experience this. It didn't happen. This wasn't real.

But that feeling of a shared bond among all Americans in the early weeks after the attack is something I’m so glad I got to experience. Because it’s the thing that I think we’re missing the most today.

A lot of my fantasy stories are inspired by songs from Laura Veirs.
Also, a lot of a Bird for a Heart is inspired by Am I Evil? by Diamondhead. I go so far as to swipe a line or two from that song.
