Dear all,
I regret to inform you that I have been banned from Omni in retaliation for
my safe space ban of Robb after multiple pleas for support from BIPOC and
women who've been harmed by his policing behavior and continual habitation
of the space.
As I am officially Sudo Room's Director on Omni's Board of Directors, we
will need a new Director.
I also have been handling Sudo Room's finances for many years. We will need
someone to step into that role, as well. I am happy to onboard whomever is
consensed-upon to take on this function.
It's been a good ride, and I've learned so much! Much love and solidarity
to you all. You can find me across the internet as tunabananas :)

Jake has accepted my nomination of him as Sudo Room's new Director. We
should have a formal consensus process on this in a Sudo Room meeting -
shall we call it for next Wednesday? Cel, could you help coordinate the
time and Jitsi/wtvr link?
Still need a finance wizard, tho :) We only have like, three expenses (Omni
rent $2K/mo, Digital Ocean and Gandi, iirc) and everything except rent is
autopay. I'll send along a quarterly financial report later today - but FYI
we are still not making enough to pay and still need to make a formal
proposal to Omni for partial rent forgiveness/work-trade for the electrical.

This is literally not how the ban process works. I believe it's clearly
written down in the wiki somewhere.
So Rob is now not banned but Jenny is?? If so, this is Omni not honoring
Omni's own process.

Thanks for the vouching, Carl & Cere - but I'd rather not make this into
a whole ordeal. It's fine for me - I've literally been by the space a
sum total of three times since last March and am mostly wanting to
cement precedent here re: our processes. AFAIK, Robb is not really
acknowledging my safe space ban, however he did submit his "resignation"
at Thursday's meeting (in a similar fashion to how he withdrew from sudo
room and the Liberated Lens in the midst of being held accountable for
shitty behavior).
IMHO, AB/Asaad should also be banned pending mediation wrt his continual
domestic habitation of the space (a major reason behind why he
reciprocal-banned me) and lack of any consensus process in FYE
Collective (which he unilaterally asserts authority over). My two cents
- but I am done, at least for awhile.
I love y'all and please reach out to me 1:1 - this is a ruff transition
and I am appreciating the DMs so very much..

This really pisses me off!
That is not an acceptable reason to ban someone, especially you Jenny.
