Hey folks — I’m currently looking to potentially transfer ownership of this community.

I originally created it to help bring people together and hopefully serve as a space for folks migrating from r/QueerDefenseFront.

It’s been great seeing it take shape, but lately I’ve found myself stretched thin — I moderate a ton of other communities here on Blahaj and across Lemmy, and it’s become a bit much to manage.

My Mental Health has taken a dive, as well.


To be clear: I’m not leaving! I still plan to post, comment, Moderate, and stay active — I just don’t have the time, energy, or capacity to continue owning the community.

If you’re interested in potentially taking on ownership, and helping guide the space forward, feel free to reach out via commenting down below.

Solidarity and thanks 💜✊🏳️‍🌈

Hey comrades,

Quick post to say: I’m currently looking for more moderators to help run this space.

I started this community with the goal of building a strong, supportive, and resilient community for queer folks — especially those who believe in organizing, mutual aid, and standing up for one another, as well as (hopefully) bring r/Queerdefensefront to the Fediverse, in case something happens/happened to the Subreddit.

But right now, I’m stretched pretty thin.

I’m already moderating a bunch of other communities across Blahaj and other instances, and it’s getting a bit overwhelming.

My Mental Health isn't doing so good, either.

If you're down to help keep this space active, safe, and focused, I’d really appreciate it.

You don’t need tons of experience — just a commitment to the values of the community and a willingness to check in when you can.

Feel free to comment below, if you're interested or want to know more.

Solidarity always ✊🏽 – Teknevra

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to remind everyone that this space is open for ALL of us to share our thoughts, experiences, and discussions. As the creator and a mod here, I want to assure you that there is no gatekeeping. Everyone, whether you're a user or a fellow mod, is encouraged to post freely.

I've noticed that I'm often the only one posting, and while there ARE comments, it would be wonderful to see more activity from all of you. Your voices and perspectives are what make this community vibrant, so don't hesitate to start a conversation or share something you think is important.

Let's work together to make this space as lively and supportive as it can be!

Thanks, and looking forward to seeing more posts!

This has been something I have wondered about for a while, and while bigots and accepting people can exist in any generation, I just cannot help but notice how this is so prominent amongst a lot of Gen X.

From J.K. Rowling to Ricky Gervais to Dave Chappelle, I notice how people seem shocked that entertainers and creators that promote themselves as progressive turned out to be bigoted assholes, but when looking back in retrospect, it seems that there were a lot of red flags, or at least signs that they were fakers.

And yet, they got away with so much of just being "a product of their time", but when looking at the bigger picture, it's hard not to realize that it seems like it was so easy to pretend to be a progressive ally, and way too easy to be accepted and worshipped.

I mean, look at all those "brave" stories of writers going through so much just to have a vague 5-second moment of a gay kiss and being seen as some sort of revolutionary.

Of course for something so simple, they could easily hide their bigotry if standards are so low.

Why was this, and why such gullibility?

Far-right instigator Mark Fitzpatrick spent over $85,000 to host a "hetero awesomeness festival" during Pride month to troll the left.

Only a few dozen people showed up, and it was a complete failure

The author announced in a Saturday post to X, formerly Twitter, that she would be founding the J.K. Rowling Women's Fund, using her personal fortune. The website for the group states that it "offers legal funding support to individuals and organisations fighting to retain women's sex-based rights in the workplace, in public life, and in protected female spaces."

"I looked into all options and a private fund is the most efficient, streamlined way for me to do this," she said. "Lots of people are offering to contribute, which I truly appreciate, but there are many other women's rights orgs that could do with the money, so donate away, just not to me!"
