🚨Please don’t scroll past this. I lost my main support recently, and everything has fallen apart. I’m struggling a lot, and asking for help is not easy. No one around me sees or understands how deeply I’m hurting or what I’m going through. I feel invisible, Please don’t overlook me‼️ #mutualaid
My name is Shaun, I’m a Black, neurodivergent (ADHD/Dyslexic), & nonbinary young adult beginning their journey after recently losing a parent, who was my greatest source of love & stability. I was adopted & had to graduate without them by my side after they passed away.

“It’s hard to imagine a clearer example of greenwashing in this world,” the environmental campaigner Bill McKibben told Unearthed. “The oil and gas industry – which is pretty much the same thing as the plastics industry – has been at this for decades.”
The big petro companies have been running a high-profile campaign to "end plastic waste." A new investigation shows that, during the campaign, these companies have produced 1000X more plastic than they have cleaned up. unearthed.greenpeace.org/2024/11/20/a...

it's true! they don't call it "ragebait" for nothin
ok one more "how we do it on bluesky" re: "block, don't engage." it's not that anybody wants to tell you what to do -- it's that we collectively realized that this is what works. it works really great! zero, zero response needed. just block! don't argue at all with dickheads! try it! you'll see.
