I once had to fix someone's heater. Went up a stairs around some corners and this apartment was just.. so different from anything I had ever seen before. It was like entering a movie set.

I am talking pink fluffy walls and crystal beads hanging in the doorway. Like just imagine the gayest possible and multiply by 10.

The craziest part was that this is in a tiny village, very conservative and religious even compared to the area it's in. We are talking bible belt in the bible belt kind of territory. We had a freakin polio outbreak! Because vaccine bad. During corona a corona tent was burned down.

This guy just didn't give a fuck and I love him for it.

It's good for all of us to be privacy literate, given that things can take a turn for the worse in many places, or already are bad. There was a post a few days ago that highlighted how the vast majority of trans people rely on internet access 🤔

I'll start by saying that matrix seems to be a solid solution for communication, and tor for accessing information. It's worth it to get familiar with them before you need them yourself, but also to understand them as a community so we can support each other globally 🏳️‍⚧️

I am also wondering if any of you are familiar with getting around network restrictions. For example a DIY mesh network? 📡

Don't give up. Eat your breakfast. Be ready to open the door. Sometimes I just can't take it anymore. A shoe lace here, a shoe lace there, all tangled up and poor.

I ruminate in the deepest point of darkness. In the eye of the singularity and at the heart of warmth. Thuds of fire strike upon the distant shore.

I pull and I pull, but I cannot free my neck. And my face runs pale, and my experience runs thin. I gasp for air, and I let it in.

An oasis in my breath. The orange of orange juice. And I, and I can be found in the blue sky, by the grace one cannot lose.

When last night I lay in pain, I snapped this just for you, as the moon came.

Hey lovelies, open question: Are any of you into self defense and do you want to share something with the rest of us?

Many game companies specifically target vulnerable people, who end up spending their entire pay check every month, and are called Whales.

I mean, whenever I hear an alarm I ignore it, because I just hear it so often. But what if instead we used these types of alarms for real emergencies? For example a personal alarm to protect yourself.

As far as I'm concerned this is a free speech comment section. Just don't forget the people who might be reading this and the beelaw.

Slightly unrelated but it kind of reminds me of a guest room I used to have.

I had this tiny but amazing little room in the center of an expensive city. Walking distance from station. Large balcony. Large windows with sun. Blackout curtains. Silent. Pretty wooden desk. Ample storage space. Mirror. Shiny clean. Lots of features, basically!

Couchsurfers were always so deeply thankful and I've never had any real issues. It was fun and rewarding.

Airbnbers? Oh my god there were some entitled guests. And it was just eur 25 a night! There's even emotional labor involved because you have to take it with a smile or you might end up receiving a bad review and drop out of the search.

I can't for a second imagine a surfer acting that way. Just like this article says it's like they assume there's this capitalist alienated relationship going on, whereas actually it's simply a gift.

You should really be careful with that as you might just invoke some ancient powers through an obscure string of characters. I'm not saying cthulu.

You'll receive a letter to remind you.

Wasn't it Sony that released an album that'd root your system? Bunch of criminals if you ask me.

I wish there was a more standardized open format for documents. And more people and software should use markdown/.md because you just don't need anything fancier for most types of documents.

My mind was blown when I found this little plastic ball in a sports store which you can put between your back and a wall and you can massage yourself. It works wonders within even seconds of using it. It's only a few euro and I used to waste hundreds of euro on massages. And you can take it anywhere because it's small and light.

I use Jitsi professionally. Never had a problem. I send a link over and they hop on via the web interface and get it working quickly without prior knowledge of the platform. Oh ya, minor detail: it's FOSS.

Apparently my brain compiler does hang. Where's that whiskey.
