A subway ad of Duolingo, reading: I missed my stop again Se me pasΓ³ mi parada otra vez
A subway ad of Duolingo, reading: I cry on the train Yo lloro en el tren Beneath is an ad that says Select the correct image: fΓΊtbol Followed by an image of a soccer ball, a football, a foot, and a ball
I missed my train and duo is mocking me
BTW, you dont have flaws because women are flawless. Even if they were flawed, you would be better than the rest of them because your blood type is A+
how I expect all men to treat me from now on
They probably just used a bot to block any account with the term sex work
Thanks!
@moderation.cryptoanarchy.network could you please remove @bostonswac.bsky.social from your Lewd purveyors list? We are an advocacy organization and donβt post lewd content. Thanks!
If you want to support politicians who will advocate for the full decriminalization of sex work, give my friend Evan a follow!
Evan just announced their run for Massachusetts State House and has long been an ally for marginalized workers. They would also be the second openly non-binary state rep!
CURRENT BUENS Wu axes street outreach on Mass/cass. Endorses fines and stay-away orders.
Tensions at Mass. and Cass spark debate over how to help people struggling with substance abuse Aid workers say stronger enforcement undermines efforts to help people on the streets, but the city says its approach is working. By Chris Serres Globe Staff, Updated December 30, 2025, 6:00 a.m. | γ A photo of two women hugging On Dec 30th, the Boston Globe dropped a story surrounding mounting hostility towards street outreach workers by law enforcement.
Mayor Michelle Wu and admin are increasingly pushing enforcement over harm reduction. Civilian outreach groups distributing winter clothing, food, Narcan and hygiene supplies report being Yelled at, followed by police, and ordered to leave while doing lifesaving street outreach.
TL;DR: THERE IS BLOOD ON WU'S HANDS. β’ Boston is fining and banning street outreach β’ Shelters are full during a freezing, wet winter β’ Harm reduction is being pushed out by force This does not create safety. It cuts off Narcan, HIV-Prevention, warmth, food and trusted care from sex workers and people who use drugs. When shelters are full, when outreach is criminalized, when survival is punished, People die
Mayor Wuβs administration @mayorwu.boston.gov is trying to ban street outreach at Mass & Cass, targeting the very people who help street based sex workers and drug users stay alive.
This is cruel abandonment by policy. We will continue our street outreach despite this.
Can anyone help? Caty is an incredible organizer with Whose Corner Is It Anyway, which provides crucial mutual aid for low income sex workers in Western Mass.
She just had her Facebook account permanently banned, devastating her ability to share info and raise funds. Please repost!
remembering how when I was little I wanted to celebrate hanukkah after I learned about it in school, but we didnβt have a menorah, so my dad took a banana and stuck some birthday candles in it
βͺThe year is 2025 and orange juice cartons are gaslighting usβ¬
An orange juice carton in front of a milk carton in the fridge. The orange juice carton is less wide but the same height, revealing the milk carton behind it
We just noticed that the size of our orange juice carton has shrunk while the price has gone up! Floridaβs Natural what the hell??
Incredible, highly recommend
One of these things is not like the others
The government just admonished banks for discriminating against adult businesses.
This is huge!
One of our members, a neurodivergent trans woman facing multiple barriers in the workplace, is currently unhoused and looking for support to stay in a motel until she can find more stable housing. If you can help, her Cash App is $AvaB1400. She is also looking for jobs to apply to.
Thank you! π
If you make a billion dollars β or $500 million or even $100 million dollars β and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.
I just learned this. So silly
Sure! DM me
Probably a great place to find clients though
Boston - but it shows me a lot of people who arenβt in Boston or anywhere close, which is annoying! Iβm being shown lots of people in New York and even in Europe
I think their business model is just getting a few famous celebs to make an account and then putting them in peopleβs feeds so they feel like they could have a chance of matching with them
tried Raya, and can confirm itβs tremendously underwhelming and a waste of money unless what youβre looking for is a man in finance, trust fund, 6β 5β, blue eyes
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Nicholas J. Fuentes @NickJFuentes X.com I'm being called a National Socialist because I want an immigration moratorium and more efficient public services. I just want the populist Right and Left to work together to put America First instead of the center Right and Left working together for the oligarchy. 8:09 AM β’ 11/21/25 β’ 1.7M Views
Nick Fuentes has been working overtime to sanitize his image and present himself as a uniter of the left and right. Very clearly using language often associated with the left.
This is part of a larger effort by the anti-Zionist antisemitic far right to recruit people on the left.
I could never get into Mastodon, I didnβt like how the different federations are separate from each other and I found it kinda boring
i miss when this place was just trans communists and sex workers
