a man logs on to mastodon.
he takes a sip of coffee, and then spits it out.
"wil wheaton got chased off the fediverse?" he yells. "i must express my disappointment!"

Also, very much not here for your “there’s room in the fediverse for everyone” takes, as if these people don’t suck all the oxygen out of the room. See my earlier toot about not engaging with missing the point bad takes, just move on, or get muted. 🖤 Your choice.

If, when you say, we should treat celebrities like everyone else, you mean we redistribute their wealth, hold them accountable for their actions AND inactions, and expect they use their platform to amplify oppressed voices until we dismantle celebrity culture entirely? Then yes, I’m with you.

But if you mean give them tabula rasa when their behavior, including their inaction, is a matter of public record, and treat them as if there is no massive power differential? No.

It's only possible in pleroma though, because mastodon haven't all those anti abuse features.

I guess everyone has its priorities.

the pleroma.site policy of setting problematic instance posts always as unlisted is pretty good.

like blocking but people can still itneract if they /really/ want.

Some people tend to get depressed because their brains are biologically tuned to be better at perceiving and focusing on negative information in the environment.

Living in a hostile environment is particularly bad for these people. Interestingly, there is some evidence that living in a supportive environment is particularly *good* for these people.

Many "risk" genes for mental illness may be more accurately described as genes which make people sensitive to the environment, for better or worse.

as an unexceptional, alien orangutan just opened a dusty library book and the first page reads "Don't trust barbecue"... in the Twilight Zone.
