Boostin' Toots & Tootin' Boston. Slow growth, small instance. Northeast United States of America.

Blatantly cribb'ed from rage.love's CoC:

We have enough of all the systematic bias that destroy lives.
We had enough of the patriarchy.
We had enough of the colonialism and the racism.
We had enough of the capitalistic system.
No TERF, no SWERF, no Nazi, no Centrist
We care for each other
We care for the living
We care for the land
We remember who we lost and what they fought for

Rules and Etiquette

Welcome! Please feel free to join us here, if you do, know that we ask everyone to keep a few things in mind. The following list is not exhaustive, and will be modified and expanded over time. Look, if you get it and you you're good with it, great. If you don't get it, figure it out - we can help! If you don't want to get it, maybe find somewhere else to hang your hat.

Be you

This is a space to celebrate our diversity. Here you don't need to be a brand, be true to yourself and let others do the same.

Cultivate a Safe Atmosphere

Harassment will not be tolerated, oppressive behavior will not be tolerated, and while failure to recognize the boundaries of others may be met at first with a gentle attempt to educate you, repeated failure will not be tolerated.

Share Things

Talk about what you are up to! Talk to other people about what they are up to! Make things! Share you patreon! Post your art! Share your knowledge! ask the questions that keep you awake at night.

Banal Bullshit Unwelcome
There's nothing interesting about homophobia, transphobia, racism, sexism or any of the other unexamined default settings some people grow up with. Being a nazi isn't an opinion, it's shitty and aggressively boring - take it somewhere else. You can feel free to disagree somewhere else where none of us have to hear you. Similarly, cryptocurrency and NFTs are bullshit and considered harmful. Keep 'em out. Enforced strictly.
Elon Musk Apologists will be tolerated but expect to be mocked.

Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
