How thick are European pancakes?
My friend has meowed at work so many times that she’s regularly asked if she’s a furry
Just following up – could I please get an invite? I sent a DM a couple weeks ago but didn’t hear back
I’m a politically active anarchist (Boston US). The extent of my political activities is giving food to people, but the cameras have completely changed my threat model.
Under current directives, the FBI considers me a domestic terrorist and violent extremist because I am trans and against fascism (not because of my actions – I am not violent). Legally they can’t just randomly arrest me because of our right to free speech, but they can arrest me for something entirely unrelated and punish me disproportionally, so the cameras have changed the way I act in the city and online. I am now much more cautious about everything; I worry about simply putting a “scam” sticker over somebody else’s sticker promoting a scam. I am constantly aware of law enforcement around me. I scan my surroundings regularly to make an updated escape plan. I notice every person walking down the street I’m on. I carry a knife and pepper spray. I regularly ask myself what would happen if a cop pulled me over / stopped me at this moment, and am well aware of the varying rights and legal obligations in those situations.
It’s not possible to avoid the cameras when driving, so I can’t just change my route. I have to simply accept the fact that they know my routine and location and they know what I do day-to-day. I am very careful about what I say both online and in person so as to not appear like I might ever do anything beyond giving food to people and broadly complaining.
And the worst part is that I’m just a 19 year old who has big ideas but won’t do any harm. I just so happen to be several minorities, so the stakes are much higher
Make sure to cover the T of the bridge of your nose and the eyebrow ridge, and your ears
On a related but more serious note, I know many have found this helpful: God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason God made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine, so that humanity might share in the act of creation. [source]
servers.joinmatrix.org has a good list of public servers, and it links to their privacy policies and codes of conduct
Fair my bad. I meant because of the situation with your friend – I might know people who can help
Actually Matrix rooms aren’t hosted on specific servers at all! That’s why room and user ids are
:example.cominstead of@example.com.Matrix federation works differently from Fediverse federation :3
I have a paper calendar on my wall. It’s really nice because I find writing things down helps me remember, and also because you can get ones with different pictures or jokes or facts or recipes on the other side, so you get a new set each month.
Also if you follow two calendar systems it’s particularly nice because they can both be on the same calendar. (For example mine is a combined hebrew gregorian calendar, which is much nicer than just having the computer tell me when holidays are)
Don’t continue to try to hang out with somebody who bullies you. You deserve better than that
Curious if
f(){;f|f&};fworks in fish. The version in the image is bash specific, but iirc fish isn’t posix compliant so idk if posix version works
Proton also has a free tier on their VPN
