In the time I've been offline, I've been doing a lot and feeling a lot more mentally healthy. I've been exploring nomadnet a bit, looking at reticulum. I'm definitely going to go back to my break and being online much less regularly.
I actually totally forgot about the anniversary of the shooting, which is the first time that's happened since... uh... the shooting, I think.
I've definitely realized that, on some level, I've definitely used Mastodon (and formerly Twitter) as a coping mechanism, often in order to deal with the stressful things that I've found out about on Mastodon or Twitter.
But, again, none of those things really change our core job: build community. And that's part of what I've been neglecting, and what I can focus on more when I'm not spending as much time talking to people all over the world indirectly. Like, I can just chat directly with folks and talk about this shit.
Yeah, I do think there's value in this community. I don't think it's really screaming into the void (at least, not most of the time). But I know that I need the balance to be way farther on the side of direct engagement with comrades doing and building.
So that's what I'm gonna go back to. I feel as though it's a good sign that with all the writing about getting shot that I've been doing, and all the thinking about that, that the actual anniversary of the shooting I'm actually just thinking about bread.
And that seems like a good note to leave on. I'm gonna go back to some hacker shit.

”My argument is that the current structure of public conversation has the same effect on human cognition that a botnet has on a web server. It's simply exhausting you. And an exhausted mind defaults to heuristics and tribal allegiances, aka whatever position allows it to conserve the most cognitive energy.”

”What I do know is that the feeling of being overwhelmed, of never being able to keep up, of having strong opinions about everything and confident understanding of nothing, is n…

This is "interesting" - In a civil trial in which Elon M. is the defendant they are having difficulty finding enough unbiased jurors to empanel a jury:
Well, that's one way to evade liability: become so hated that there aren't enough people who don't hate your guts to form a jury.

Trump’s intensifying standoff with European leaders over the fate of Greenland
prompted a sharp response from investors Tuesday morning,
with the value of U.S. stocks, dollar and government bonds all falling.
The S&P 500 dropped over 1 percent
as investors reacted to Trump’s increasing threat of higher tariffs on European allies unless they supported his plans for America to take control of Greenland.
Tuesday morning’s decline was first time the index has st…

On Sept. 21, the police came for Larry Bushart.
They handcuffed him and hauled him away in the dead of night.
He spent 37 days in jail while held on a $2 million bond
— an amount the retired police officer could not afford.
It’s the sort of treatment one expects for accused murderers and thieves.
But Larry’s only “crime”?
In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, he posted a meme on Facebook
quoting President Trump’s remarks about a different …
