homosexual individual

thhis polll is nuts to me bc in 2020 during the portland wildfires and the pre vaccine era of the pandemic, i tried to sign up for a "mutual aid n95 giveaway" list, via my twitter account, and they banned me for having an anime girl pfp (it was rakka from haibane renmei) and having a locked account (i had a job and was closeted). i messaged them like "is there any way i can appeal this?" and they said "no" because apparently my anime girl icon and locked account meant i was either "fash or a creep or both." anyway they approved my roommates so they both got n95s but didn't share them with me. because i had an anime girl icon on twitter and didn't want my boss to find out i was trans.

I'm just gonna throw them out. They're too frightening.

Bluminarmour Project Update (sorry for the croaky voice)

Hey folks, it is with great sadness that I need to let you know that it looks like the Bluminarmour Project on Kickstarter is going to have to take a backwards step. Due to some communication issues with one of the people I was working with on the project, there has been a copyright dispute that has resulted in its suspension.

Unfortunately after several days of communication with Kickstarter and the affected parties, it seems like the best way to proceed will be to first ensure that Kickstarter refunds all backers, and then cancel the project and begin again. Obviously I will update you all if anything changes but for now this seems to be the best option.

I do have an armourer that I’m very excited to work with moving forward, and I still want to do this the best way that I can, but that means I need to take a different approach for now.

If you are in this country and took the job, which I hope you didn't, now is definitely the time to look into a pro-bono labour rights lawyer. You're definitely eligible for back pay of any tips withheld and probably more. If you're in any progressive state there's a good chance your rights go beyond this. Regardless, federal regulations:

On a personal note I am seeing red over the situation. Fuck them for the audacity to pull this shit. Fuck them for being manipulative, abusive bosses.
