Technical debt collector and general hype-hater. Early 30s, non-binary, ND, poly, relationship anarchist, generally queer.
Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
Feel free to flirt, but if you want to actually meet up and/or do something with me, lewd or otherwise, please tell me explicitly or I won't realize :) I'm generally very open to that sort of thing!
Further boundaries: boosts are OK (including for lewd posts), DMs are open. But the devil doesn't need an advocate; I'm not interested in combative arguing in my mentions. I am however happy to explain things in-depth when asked non-combatively.
My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

uspol, a perspective from an Egyptian who fled
Liberals in the US need to contend with the fact that their empire is the biggest threat to democracy everywhere.

vreemdelingenhaat, nieuws
Wat een vaag verhaal is dit. Het geld is opgehaald door derden specifiek om kinderen naar de Efteling te sturen, dus waarom zou het COA hier uberhaupt iets te zeggen hebben over hoe dat besteed wordt...?

I posted this on twitter ~3y ago and it struck a chord.
Still relevant?

@Shrigglepuss sigh, I guess I'll have to do it now *adds "husband, father, Christian, free software developer" to my bio*

If everywhere defederates from Fosstodon who is going to stink up your mentions to talk down to you about using Linux

The internet can be good
(Not sure if it's relevant for the hashtag question, but I'm *not* looking for 'lowest possible price' here)
I want to pay an artist to create some activist art. I don't have any particular artist in mind, and would like to post an 'open request' to which interested artists can respond with eg. a portfolio and quote.
Is there a hashtag for this?
Oh hey, Storybundle is finally sending me the bundle announcements I've been trying to sign up for repeatedly! It stuck this time!

Has anyone seen a study about the effect of handwashing on Covid spread?
(Yes, I know it's airborne. It's just the 'wash your hands for 20 seconds' thing is very persistent.)

love that when your former partner moves out after a breakup that the government just sends you a bunch of letters saying like "HEY YOU'RE SINGLE NOW? DAMN, ANYWAY HERE'S THE FISCAL CONSEQUENCES "

i got tired of seeing the meme with the ai-art otter (i don't even remember what the meme was about) so i quickly sketched an otter holding a sign. i didn't use the original for reference, so the sign proportion is totally different. also i don't often draw otters so this might not look very otterlike. also it's grumpy
feel free to use it however you like

Fediverse. Where would I find a royalty free, or CC recording of ode to joy ?
Needs to be as a file download, so MP3, ogg, flax, etc...

I would just like to say that these signs in the DFW airport bathrooms are peak social engineering, and I do hope Dan Patrick enjoys all the phone calls from people upset about the government photographing their hairy bits.

'Each man thought: one of the others is bound to say something soon, some protest and then I will murmur agreement, not actually say anything. I am not as stupid as that, but definitely murmur very firmly, so that the others will be in no doubt that I thoroughly disapprove, because at a time like this it behooves all decent men to nearly stand up and be almost heard. But no one said anything. The cowards, each man thought.'

pspol, eupol, uspol
Another article talking about how the Freedom Flotilla is being treated in international waters. I CWed it with eu/uspol in addition to pspol because there are both eu and us citizens aboard this vessel. They still have their conscience and just wanted to deliver aid to starving people. Israel is reacting horrifically, as always.

Re. https://mastodon.art/@Curator/114400044441100499 , it's been a week and we've seen nothing to indicate that Fosstodon will be changing for the better any time soon, and so we have defederated from the instance.
This has severed all existing connections between people on mastodon.art and fosstodon.org, and will prevent any further communication between our instances (e.g. you won't be able to find or follow people on Fosstodon, and they won't be able to find you).

I hate how "expecting <person> to do <thing>" can mean two completely different things; believing that they will do a thing, vs. holding them accountable if they don't.
I also hate how much more effort it takes to talk about collectivist ideas and responsibility, than it does to talk about individualism and personal benefits, because people just aren't used to talking about it and so constantly misunderstand/misassume things
