3 things I want to see for instant followback:
1) Your pronouns. Indicates you respect the pronouns of others.
2) Masks. I want to see that you give a shit about not spreading an ongoing pandemic and thus TRULY care about intersectional values.
3) ALT tags. You can set an autonag for it. No excuses.

If I could, I'd give each and every one of you a personal, therapeutic holodeck. One that doesn't allow safety protocols to be turned off or fail, doesn't accidentally generate uncontrollable new lifeforms, or threaten you in any way. Just a nice one to bring you peace. 🖤💙😷🥄

Not only am I glad that you exist, I wish for you to have all the support you need to continue existing and intend to do my small part towards keeping you here. You matter.

Don't approach women ever at night/dake places
Stop making jokes that appear as threats
Stop being creepy

Our combadges have an "unavailable" setting and I frequently have to remind crew to use it. Everyone needs downtime. It's not only okay for you to refuse to take calls or read social media when you need space, it's essential for your overall health. 🖤💙😷🥄

Anyway so this is a post about masking up.
You can do a lot to undermine evil capitalism in your era simply by being kind, compassionate, and protective towards yourself and others.

When we live through difficult times, it's easy to turn on ourselves and imagine we're failing because we can't fix everything. Be gentle with yourself. Your high emotional reaction indicates your goodness, not weakness.

Hugs are always available in my sickbay for those who want them, especially for anyone who has been treated badly by other health care workers because of your race, weight, gender, sex, place of origin, etc. If you can get to my sickbay, I will shower you with kindness. 🖤💙😷🥄

Just because I applaud you for striving to be more doesn't mean I am not also proud of you for being enough as you are now.

It's impossible to "cheat" on a diet or be "guilty" of eating some foods or even to have "guilt-free" foods because food has no moral value. Eat food that works for you. Fed is best. 🖤💙😷🥄

Dear fellow bsky users: please stop assuming you are immune to spreading disinformation, or failing to recognise AI, or free from bigotry, or not complicit in the harm of others in some other way. There's nothing about being on this site that washes you of any of this. You still need to be vigilant.

You are allowed to refuse any social interaction that takes from you more than it gives, especially when it comes to your medical safety. Even major holidays. 🖤💙😷🥄

When problematic people shun you, that's simply efficient waste extraction ahead of time. Or as your era puts it: let the rubbish take itself out.

Strive for quality, not perfection. Perfection is usually unattainable and thus both inefficient and exhausting to pursue. Quality is relative, flexible, and more useful.

Everyone's limits and needs are different. Stop beating yourself up because you have health issues that other people don't have or understand. I'm proud of you for whatever you were able to do today for your own needs, within your own limits. 🖤💙😷🥄

The activism you do towards social justice is important, even if it feels small to you. Change requires an abundance of small actions towards a better tomorrow. I'm proud of you for all that you do.

Being loved and being useful are two different things. Separate those entirely in your mind. You deserve love even when you are unproductive, and you cannot "earn" love by making yourself useful to others.
