@cinnamon ohayou! ^^
@codl it seems like the servers are going to be given to someone that the staffers don't trust and a very large number of channels are moving to https://libera.chat/
someone at freenode actually made ChanServ quit from the network with the message:
ChanServ (ChanServ@services.) has Quit (Killed (grumble (My fellow staff so-called 'friends' are about to hand over account data to a non-staff member. If you care about your data, drop your NickServ account NOW before that happens.)))
i've written in it almost every day for about a month and a half now, and it's interesting how it managed to turn into a thing that i don't find particularly difficult to just settle down and write in
acme is open 100% of the time with a few text files; it feels quaint, in a comfy and aesthetic way
recounting the things each day i thought were emotionally important is actually really interesting, and lets me meditate on ideas that let me become more in touch with myself and my goals
putting a pi 400 with a tiny screen next to my bed has actually managed to get me into the habit of journalling
it has plan 9 on it and is still pretty esoteric to use, but the novelty of it all actually tickled the part of my brain that wanted to actually use plan 9 for something useful
so now i have a tiny plan 9 journal
@SuricrasiaOnline ooh! this is a neat way to distribute things on masto~
@cinnamon ooh! agree!!
abdl
turns out, while not super high, "diaper" is on the wikipeda list of common passwords
i can't help but wonder if this is on the list because of abdls with bad infosec, or some other reason

@haskal ah yes, "not all $x"
a technically true but completely unhelpful way to dismiss the problems of the marginalized, and to ignore the power dynamics that cause it to be a problem in the first place
it just screams not recognizing the privilege of not having people with more power than you having the ability to make your life miserable
@monorail i like how this is like...a weird ping for all the peeps on your timeline who will interact with stuff you post~ ^^
@monorail bless you!
this legit, is probably the main reason i haven't really drawn on my computer for the last year or so =w=

@cinnamon hee, thanks! ^^
and i realize others think this way too, which is why it's weird to me that i can't seem to shake my inclinations to just silently hang around like i do~

i love the idea of just going nuts on the topics i like, and i keep convincing myself i'm gonna do that
but i always seem to fall back to turtling once again
mh (~)
it's possible that being hyper-interested in things people surrounding me weren't caused me to internalize that passion is bad, actually
but spaces like the ones i'm worried about are largely opt-in
oh hi! i do computers, and sometimes draw stuff~ i like lo-fi things and cute aesthetics!
i also probably like you
(also, tagged #abdl ahead, soooo 🔞)
