A step in the right direction... We need a bunch more of these around here!
Victim of the Meta banwave of 2025 (hundreds of thousands [or millions?] of accounts being randomly permanently suspended by Meta's moronic AI for bogus reasons)...

What are you supposed to do when everyone and everything meaningful to you has been stolen away from you? When everything that makes life worthwhile is gone?

... because i was an active member of a number of cat groups on FB that had many experienced rescuers and local members. These kittens would have been rescued weeks ago. But now they are dying because of the sociopath tech fascists of Meta who cut me off from all the resources I had.

[1/2] So far two of the kittens have passed away, and another may not make it through the night. If my Facebook account hadn't been fraudulently suspended by meta a few months ago, i could have found rescue assistance to get these kittens into safe care, [cont'd]

I mean, if you do a search online for moontwin mel garside you will get plenty of results from webpages posting reviews of their releases, and there is the Bandcamp page moontwinmusic.bandcamp.com showing releases since Jan 2020 ....
Dire Deparra (@lunarpollen.bsky.social)
I know I'm just yelling to the wind, as nobody I know is on this site, and nobody will even see this post, but if Moontwin have been a thing since at least Jan 2020, why is there absolutely no trace of them on discogs.com, and why is there no mention of them on the Melanie Garside/Maple Bee website?

The kittens eyes started to open a few days ago, but they are still in cluster mode, staying in a pile for safety

It's possible that my central nervous system compensated for the overall diminished ability to smell/taste by increasing the severity of my reaction to unpleasant smell/taste triggers.
Dire Deparra (@lunarpollen.bsky.social) reply parent
For those who ask if I've experienced loss of sense of smell/taste - - I still have those senses, but they are dulled in some ways, sharpened in other ways. Dulled as far as my overall limit of detection is concerned, sharpened in that certain foul scents/tastes affect/disgust me more acutely.

This pretty much describes a lot of my current physical/medical state. I've been in the "mild" (but gradually worsening) category for decades, was getting toward "moderate" level, but then post-infection "long COVID" immediately thrust me far into the moderate category, with no relief in sight.

Just discovered a mother cat and 5 newborn kittens along side my house today

I am going to try via a complaint to the California Attorney General, as soon as I can figure out what subcategory I need to select at the AG website

I'm new to this platform so I am still feeling my way around. But a 300 character limit is ridiculous and depressing.
Dire Deparra (@lunarpollen.bsky.social) reply parent
Can people see these comments? I haven't been able to view comments on other people's posts, it only shows the main post and clicking on the comments button prompts me to enter a comment but doesn't show the comments from other people.
Dire Deparra (@lunarpollen.bsky.social) reply parent
This 300 character limit thing on here really sucks. It stifles free expression. I can't even begin to write anything meaningful or informative. We need a platform with no character limit to posts, with an event listing feature, and no intrusive AI bullshit.

My FB account, which I had for the better part of 2 decades, was fraudulently suspended by Meta a few months ago, instantly cutting me off from almost everyone and everything I knew. Friends, acquaintances, bands, small businesses, museums, support groups/communities, all stolen from me.
