Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

I know I'm technically a day late in posting this now, but for Indigenous People's Day I recommend everyone read "The Indian Card: Who Gets to Be Native in America" by Carrie Lowry Schuettpelz. Absolute eye-opener on things like blood quantum, tribal registry, belonging, etc.

#IndigenousPeoplesDay

The cover for "The Indian Card: Who Gets to be Native in America" by Carrie Lowry Schuettpelz. The background is a faded, old historical record of some identity document, with a bright central graphic over it that looks like a lightly abstract mix between a flower motif and a burning flame.

I’m currently helping a marginalized trans person with mutual aid because she gets harassed anytime she asks for help in ways white people don’t, so she dropped off socmed and asked me if I’m willing to post for her, so I do. She helped me when I needed help, so I’m paying it forward for her.

People often get at me for not speaking up about some issues or people that have done bad things. And the thing is when I do speak up. I am not believed, I get harassed and all the people that encouraged me to speak up turn against me. So I pick my own battles carefully now.

I might need to start a fund for a new graphics card. Can't do...guess not Subathon, but fundathon? Streamathon (from Telethon). Dunno, need something to get things boosted. Would just need a theme... #horrorgame community, and #vsky , what game creator has a good variety of games?

While traveling in Spain I had a 30 minute "conversation" with a bartender speaking very fast Andalucian Spanish. I was pleasantly buzzed so I just nodded along with the occasional "si," "por supuesto," "sin duda," "guao," etc. By the end I'm sure she knew I didn't speak Spanish, but it was fun 😅

Emiru, the streamer who was sexually assaulted at TwitchCon yesterday, said she is "hurt and upset by how Twitch handled it during and after the fact"

She claims TwitchCon security & staff were heavily dismissive of the incident, only catching the perpetrator hours later due to her manager

Conversation

@emiru
hello everyone, I am okay and thank you for all of the kind messages, sorry I cannot respond to them all 🩷

Yesterday, the man who assaulted me was allowed to cross multiple barriers at twitchcon and even in front of another creators meet and greet to grab me and my face and try to kiss me. Fortunately he wasn't able to, but a lot of people have pointed out it could have been a lot worse!

I'm obviously shaken up by what happened and it's not the first time I've dealt with something like this, but to tell you honestly, I am a lot more hurt and upset by how Twitch handled it during and after the fact.

Like I said, I don't understand how he was allowed to make it to me in the first place. The security in the clip who reacts is my own security (it's true my favorite and usual security guard was banned for holding a stalkers arm to bring him to police, at a past Twitchcon)

However, there were at least 3 or 4 other Twitchcon security staff in the area who did not react and let the guy walk away, as you can see in the clip since they don't even appear in the frame LOL

The woman who is walking me away is my own personal manager, and behind the booth, the only two people who were checking on me and comforting me were her and my friend. None of the Twitchcon staff came to ask what happened or if I was okay.

My friend who was present told me Twitch security were also behind the booth afterwards joking about how they didn't even see what happened and immediately laughing and moving on to talking about something else.

So if no one was checking if I was okay or if I needed anything and they let the guy run away initially, I have no idea what anyone hired to keep the event safe was doing LOL

In Twitch's statement they said that the guy was immediately caught and detained, I'm sorry but that is a blatant lie. He was allowed to walk away from my meet and greet and I didn't hear he was caught until hours after he attacked me, and it felt like this o…
