there's nothing in the rules of the internet that says you can't share a
mastodon account with your 18 closest friends.
you'll only find such a demand in the EULA's of websites that you probably
shouldn't be spending very much time on, anyway.

Or, if you're scared of strangers, then try talking with a friend.

I know you don't want to hear this, but there is a chance that there will come
a time where your life depends on your ability to debug a computer without the
internet. To set up an SSH server. To install Linux. To program in C. To do
something else that I'm not prepared for... If StackOverflow didn't exist
because network connectivity has been lost, could you remember syntax? Maybe
it's a good idea to set up a local LLM that can answer basic questions about
technology. Maybe it's a good idea to set up on your parents computer, just in
case you have to hide out there for a couple months. Maybe it's a good idea to
download wikipedia, just in case.

That happens a lot with online people. You can only see one side of them, the
side they present to the camera, and so it's difficult to find new ways of
looking at them. Hopefully you can find the brighter sides of this person! I'm
sure they exist, unless the person is spiralling. Then they'll often be
pushing themselves first one way, then the next, but both directions point
down... And that produces the ":(" feeling. Good luck!

I personally like cyber-sexual exploitation more than cyber exploitation. I
wouldn't have thought about it unless you said something. there are a lot of
ways to exploit someone in a digital medium, and adding "sexual" focuses the
term to specifically the non-consentual sharing of sexual digital media -
which is exactly what the term "revenge porn" describes.

it's good to be ethical,
it's good to be kind,
but there will always be assholes,
and sometimes you're not having a good time
it's okay
it's fine
assholes deserve life
times deserve others to be kind
life is not always interesting
and that's often by design
the moments of clarity,
the moments of heart,
these are what define you
and display your own spark.
trust in yourself.
be kind to one another.
you are braver than you know,
and always a bit wiser.

I'd say "content warning: fear-cursed-if-true-not-politics" that way people
who had "Fear" or "cursed" on their filter list wouldn't see it. Things that
are commonly content-warning'd are also commonly content-filtered by people
who tend to be the biggest beneficiaries of healthily designed
content-warnings. so putting keywords in there that filter out people who
don't want to see intense or damaging things to their psyche can avoid it more
easily.

if you'd like I can give you a lua script which will take your fediverse
archive and turn it into a pdf which you can edit or print or whatever. Might
be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add
clarifications, change some things, put things in a new light, add context,
etc... before you know it you'll have something printable. Could even pull out
your best stuff and make zines.
should require just a little configuration to suit your setup. That's part of
how I stay "productive" without posting all the time.

why would I want other people using my computer? They don't know how to use my
computer! They might break something or mess something up or automatically
read/edit my files that are stored in standard locations through the usage of
a script which automagically scans and ransomwares machines on the internet
who store their files in specific standardized locations! no thank you.

have you ever noticed the people on Mastodon who used to have cool and
interesting ideas but now just kinda repeat the same basic things over and
over again?

capitalists want you to use their products. they prey on your humanity to get
you to do so. They don't care if you want their products, they just demand
that you use them.

An important aspect to friendship is "loose" time together - like, at a party,
you might interact with a dozen people, or you might spend it all with one
special someone - but the time is "loose" you can do with it what you will.

... Dare for the Bright Age, though "don't forget to be awesome" works too I
guess.

or nobody sees it, because you post the things you say on the internet in 2024
which is so siloed and echo-chambered that the only people who hear it say
"tru tho" and "she just like me fr" and never change because of your words
... wait that's just what you said, but made more specific, isn't it?

all media is an echo chamber, between the screen and you.
social media just lets you talk back.

okay just to clarify: if anyone is recording me or storing data about me, I
would really prefer if you didn't delete it just because I realized it was
happening. I like data! It's cool to know such things!

post until you can't anymore
capitalism wants to drown your voice
do not let it
speak until you cannot speak
then go do some pushups
then find some friends
then pitch a tent in the park
then explain to the cops that you're not actually homeless and living there
you're just trying to do this as a social statement because someone on the
internet told you to
then use your phone call to call your representative and complain about how
much funding the police get
then study law for 30 years because that's how long the government decided
your life was worth
by then you'll probably have figured out a better plan moving forward, so, use
that one instead
