So, my life has gone full tilt. I requested separation from my partner of 21 years. I've started open-relationship dating and need a job. I never thought I'd be in this position... yet here I am. I'm scared, hopeful, and nervous. Started running again. And all I want is a good snuggle and […]

It's a #colonialist #racist holiday that needs to be shown up for what it is.

I got to read an advance copy of The Chaos Apple by Thumper Forge, and it was an absolutely delightful read that gave me some new ways to think about my magickal practice (and drastically improved my opinion of chaos magick and Discordianism). I highly recommend […]

So I live on a #boat now and everything gets organised through one Meta product or another - seemingly mostly Facebook and WhatsApp.

I have grudgingly joined some WhatsApp groups, but I refuse to book face.

So I’m trying some hashtags. Is #fediboat is a thing or maybe #boatstodon? #boatlife? […]

OK so instead of random polls, I decided to do some proper grown-up market research. Please fill in this survey if you're interested in supporting my self-published work. I need numbers!

one fun fact i love is that bunnies and cats will often be friends because their behaviors for social hierarchies are inverted. if a cat grooms a bunny, the bunny thinks it's getting special attention, while the cat is establishing a dominant/protective role, so they BOTH think they're in charge lol

- Internet relay chat (IRC)
- Early blogs

Then corporations arrived with money and lock-in, turning the internet into centralized ad farms (Meta, X, TikTok). Users became […]
