So if you're looking to run away from Proton Mail following their recent "opinions", you have a sense of adventure, and you want to take pride in maintaining your own communication, may I suggest taking a peek at @mwl 's "Run Your Own Mail Server" book?

Yes--it's a lot of work up front and looks very intimidating at first, but having gone through the process long before the book existed I can say it's an amazing feeling to take back control of my email.

Elon Musk and deradicalizing people 

If you see someone who’s questioning Elon Musk for the first time because he obviously lied about having a top account on Path of Exile — do not mock them, do not shame them, do not complain that they should have figured this out years ago. That would just be pushing them back into the radicalizing environment they’re currently standing on the edge of saying “wait a moment…”

Radicalizing environments and cults pull people away from their friends and family and tell them that they’ll be mocked for embracing the truth but it’s worth it. The mockery then pushes them into the arms of the ones saying “shh shh, we understand… don’t worry, you’re the smart one here, they’ll be sorry.”

Yes, obviously lying about Path of Exile doesn’t even make his top one hundred worst sins. That’s not the point. The point is that this one is clear as day to the exact demographic he’s targeting — lonely young men. Once you conclude for yourself that someone is irrefutably a liar, it becomes easier to revisit what they said before and reevaluate it.

PROTON STINKS.

The claim that republicans will be able to tackle big tech abuses glosses over the fact that an unelected dictator wannabe is pulling the strings here.

Useless shitheads.

@avon_deer I saw his vids a few months ago but forgot his name until seeing your link. Opened me eyes on a lot of economics

In my 20s I was a werewolf and I was so happy; some of the best years of my life!
When I got to my 30s I developed a loathing of myself and everything I liked. Turns out this was 100% dysphoria and the reason I hated everything was because it was all me being male.
But now I know I'm trans and I'm getting medication it's kinda like everything's rewinding back to then; feelings I haven't felt for decades have come flooding back!
Part of that is being a werewolf! 🐺

@tryst I had a similar things a few months ago; hope you feel better really soon dear 💜

Werewolf DONE!
Name chosen: "Riveclaw" (pronounced /ˈriːva/) which comes from an old norse/Icelandic/Yorkshire word meaning "to tear/rip".

I am so incredibly happy with how this turned out. People who've known me a long time will know that werewolves are important to me, but dysphoria and gender confusion pushed that all away, but I'm glad that it's coming back with a strength I haven't felt before!

This is a side of me resurfacing. 💜 🐺

Werewolf self redesign is done and I am SO HAPPY

but now there's the problem of a name "Graafen" doesn't fit, but also I want something that's related to the history of where I live/grew up; Yorkshire/Danelaw historical influences.

Time to make a list of names, haha

Out in the snow, 2017.

(one way to tell if it's an older photo or not are the gloves - those have been retired)

Fault report: "2nd monitor on desk doesn't work; gives an error that there is no cable connection. Checked all cables and settings but fault persists so must be faulty cable."
Me: "Visited desk. Monitor was not plugged into the docking station. Plugged it back in and tested working."

Starting my trans journey is one of the best decisions I ever made. 💜💛
