Revised #introduction thanks to recent events:
My name is Valerie Grimaude-Valens, but you can also call me Freya. I am an 8 foot tall Squirrel Werewolf who rejected heaven. I'm a sister to @AliceGrimaude and a mother to a few adoptees.
I am a former fascist who had reformed into an anarcho-syndicalist and a supporter of antifa. I sometimes talk about my time in the AltFurry cult to help people avoid falling in with that bad crowd, and to demolish the rhetoric they use to poison the community.
Fat people are beautiful, if you're fat and struggling with self-image, just remember that you are fine just the way you are, and nobody can take that away from you.
The only real concern should be about physical health, but honestly, that's nobody's business but yourself and who you choose to trust. By the way, dieting comes with greater long term health risks.
If you're fat, you're beautiful too, and there is no need to qualify it, and you deserve to be loved.

Also while I'm here: put fat people in your games you cowards. Put fat women in your games that aren't jokes or villains. Put fat men in your games that aren't bumbling goobers. DO IT.

re: Music | Synth | Potential Overstim Image
If you're curious what that sounds like, I included a quick and rough performance with it.
FSF bullshit
The fact the FSF is doubling down on RMS and effectively saying "we need him" is telling. It means they have a cult that can't survive without him, not a sustainable and vibrant organisation.
One day, RMS is going to die. This isn't an ominous threat or something, it's just what happens to everyone eventually. It could be tomorrow, or it could be 40 years from now. Realistically, the guy is 68. He is probably going to die within most of our lifetimes.
If the FSF cannot survive without RMS, then the FSF has no long-term future, by this simple fact alone. Not that open source or FOSS needs the FSF. It will survive with or without them, and continue with or without them.
If people can't accept that, then that's just too bad.
Racism, colonialism and war are fundamentally linked. It's no accident that open anti-Muslim Bigotry ballooned in the lead-up to the Iraq War, and the new enemy of China coincides with spiking anti-Asian racism.

Climate change and people who just do not get it
Hiking through forests and small german villages, I see two things: Lots of trees are damaged and dying, apparently from drought and heat resulting from climate change. Then, leaving the woods, single family homes in small villages with SUVs in front and banners protesting against wind power plants, because the windmills would “spoil the landscape“.
trans lives in danger
Activists warn than the surge in legislation targeting #transgender youth (which looks far too coordinated to be anything but a conspiracy) puts the lives of those trans youth in danger https://www.cbsnews.com/news/transgender-rights-legislation-surge-youth-mental-health/
i'm getting a pinephone.
chinese gov started forcing everyone to install surveillance app.
We are Valerie/Freyja and Julayla Grimaude, two members of the three belonging to the Manibrandr system. We share this account because we are in an intra-system relationship, and enjoy the proximity to each other.
We are highly empathetic trans nonbinary otherkin artists and composers, and we are antifascist anarcho communist agnostic animists. Valerie is a panromantic gray ace, and Julayla is a pan lesbian.
The third, and our intra-system sister Iselyn can be found at @DemonISM
