Xenia, the fox girl mascot of Linux, was first designed in 1996 by Alan Mackey. She was meant to be an alternative to Tux, the official mascot.
She had fallen into obscurity, but was noticed by a Twitter user in 2019 and was redrawn as a fox girl. But as it turned out, Xenia was originally meant to be male! The original creator, Alan, was cool with this, saying "It matches the transition of a lot of the smartest, nerdiest Linux users I know" and "And sure, you made her trans!".
So now we have a trans Linux mascot. And I think that's neat.

fucking white queer libs i am so fucking done i was on this nice ace kink server, with my partner partner notices a sus profile, and i autotranslate the hebrew on it, and it's a clear zionist. i even asked my friend who speaks hebrew and he told me it was an israeli nationalist slogal. i alert the mods about this, and the mod i speak to says they'll talk to the other mods.
they tell me to suck it up and they won't do anything. it's not a political space after all (LIKE FUCKING HELL IT ISN'T). this was already too far but i didn't do anything, except privately explain to the mod that this was the wrong decision and why, and ask they convey that to the rest of the mod team.
next day a mod shuts down a conversation that drifted into politics.
so i just fucking posted a song in solidarity with palestine, announced i was leaving because the server is tolerating zionists, and left. wish i'd posted screenshots of the mod convo before i left but hindsight is 20/20 i guess. i was told afterwards by a member that this guy had been much more vocal about his zionism on another server and caused a whole drama.
just. how hard is it to not include reactionaries in queer spaces? this place would boot out anyone who came in with fascist profile shit. zionism is a form of fascism but somehow that doesn't count? like no fash but sure, you support an ethnostate actively committing genocide, why don't you come into our safe space? well great, now there is no safe space. i loved that place. it was the only social space i felt safe in a sexual sense.
does anyone have a recommendation of a queer kink discord server than does not include zionists?
Confronting Zionism as a fascistic movement means coming to terms with Settler Colonialism as a fascistic movement, and liberals aren't comfortable with that because they are live in those states. It's perfectly okay to feel bad about Settler Colonialism after the fact, and it's actually awesome when they all die off (to the Liberal mind) because they can't correct you and you get to claim them as the ideological founders of your state that makes it distinct from Europe and distances you more from the ongoing project of Settler Colonialism. Being anti zionist is the Sina Qua Non of real internationalism - it's one of the perfect crystal clear deliniations between the labour aristocrats and proles, the ones the international bourgeois can count on to defend financial imperialism and its rougher forms in the metropole and the ones who will be a problem to the system of Empire should they ever gain power.
Anyway, no sorry I don't like discord. Hope you find one. Or just do munches irl I guess, might find a good space if you go to people in the lifestyle
ty, i think that is a pretty excellent explanation of why these fucking people can't get their heads around it.
we are gonna try and go to munches eventually, but it's not really a replacement for that space because both me and partner are disabled, live in the middle of nowhere, and my partner doesn't speak spanish yet. but maybe something online will turn up.
