true homies give their pals nicknames on Discord or whatever messaging apps so
it's slightly less likely they'll be compromised if their phone is yoinked
while they're walking down the street and looking at directions to get to the
bakery down the street which was closed darn it okay let's see what's around
... slightly... Also helps against screenshots I guess. The profile pic can't
be changed tho so that's fucked.

trans people long ago figured out that a great way to avoid rude comments is
to change your profile picture to an anime girl or something abstract like
mine. It's kinda fucked but it's whatever.

if they can't get into your phone, they can at least record all of the
received notifications.
meaning they already know who it is that you know...

oh yeah true
okay new plan how much do you think it'll cost to buy a hotel
[this is why the socialists invented buy-in]
"I don't think socialists did that??"
buy in, hmmmm, what's that? oh yeah it's when you say "hey what if we X'd" and
they said "yes I agree with you because you present a reasonable estimate on
reality"
{uh hi I just got a message from "some-nowhere" here ya go: "oh my god she's
fuckig instane}
[ugh cursing-mentioned, that means there's fewer characters to transmote.]
[no because then I'd run out of steam and it'd be incomplete. Plus sometimes I
like the distraction of a reasonable limitation.]
(okay, but are YOU worth it?)
leave her alone she's working her charms, this is how witches d-do.
"so, isn't the point to give yourselves the coverage of a location

as I rode my bike around yesterday, more and more I started to see a city full
of badasses. you can tell from the look in their eyes, the way they walk, the
things they say.
unrelated, but
the only reason the cops win at fights is because of their equipment.
the closer we get to parity, the more fucked they are, and they're already in

so others get a hint of hope
then they start doing as you do

then you start getting more out of life

idk I think riots are good actually, that's always been my position. like,
they're bad because they're break stuff, but they're good because they get the
message across. "don't fuck with us. give us what we need."
haven't been to a protest in a while tho, ever since moving where I am now.
I'm currently of the mind that protests are great for meeting people to work
with, and I don't know anyone...
I guess I'm just not very trusting of strangers, but if I know you then I'm
100% open and honest and I'll do anything you need me to. I like being helpful
to everyone around me but I don't know what to do when I'm terrified of hidden
enemies.

think they're like, endless gauntlets of death to-the-death. no, it's not
really like that, more like "stick around as long as possible and try to get

plus some general orders from the guys on horses like "start moving toward the
sun" or "move onto the high ground"
'cause like, if you hear something like that then you better follow their

true but someone could walk in while you're away! the locks on doors aren't
THAT useful if someone already knows where you live and what your room looks
like and that you use linux. If you leave for a night they can just, copy the
hard drives and scan through them at home.

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,

washing dishes without a dishwasher is a pain in the neck.
nobody cuts down trees with an axe anymore, a chainsaw is better for your back.
It's nice, fun, and helpful to be able to abstract away your spheres of concern
like typing with a single button instead of writing characters with multiple
brushstrokes. Easy to erase, too!
bikes are better than walking, but, with some extra concerns. where are ya
gonna put it when you get there?
"oh no I forgot how to walk because texting my girlfriend is bicycling or
something" what? oh dear, she's run off track again, let's pick her up and put
her upright again..:
oh huh weird where was I - oh yes computer code can often be impenetrable to
the layperson, but if you describe a program in complete detail in english
they can usually follow along. Especially if you have several layers of
meta-descriptional documents so they can say "oh uh-huh so that's what a
vector_implementation_container is, tell me more about combinatrix" or
whatever ppl say, idk

true, but much the same way people will rebel against inconvenience by writing
passwords on sticky notes, so too might they put SSH keys onto the nearest
