weirder.earth mod team has agreed to block the account womensart1@tooot.im. It forwards tweets from the Twitter account womensart1.

This account deliberately excludes trans women, & misgendered an agender artist even after corrections were offered. The person behind it hasn't responded well to requests for change, & made very transphobic tweets on a personal account.
