@Iuckyduck Good morning ☀️

@eloisa You know what? As soon as I found out that the number was from Portugal, I actually wondered for a second if you had my phone number 😅

Yesterday I received my very first notification from #Signal. It was a secure session reset from a Portuguese phone number.

I don’t think I know anyone from Portugal in meatspace 🤨

I don’t like it when user interfaces (in either apps or websites) do not allow me to change their language and force me to use Italian:
1) Translations are terrible and unusable most of the times, so I have better chances to understand the meaning if I switch to the original language.
2) If I need to look up the documentation for a specific functionality, or even just to google it, I’d prefer to have the name in English rather than the translation.

A perpetual state of propaganda – not just limited to the electoral season – is a staple of authoritarian governments.

Even after getting his seat in the cabinet, Salvini is still pushing forward his xenophobic rhetoric on social media – it doesn't matter to him (nor to Italians) that there are 629 migrants' lives at stake, and that his decision to close the ports to the ships helping shipwrecked people is a violation of human rights.

@eloisa Whoops… I didn't say anything!

@eloisa Oh wow the blobworld has become a scary place now

@eloisa I can't say I have a favourite, they're all good blobs

@eloisa Nope, can't find it

I just noticed that #Octodon has adopted a lot of blob emojos!

Oh yesssss

Good morning everybody! May this Sunday bring you happiness and serenity

Today, for the first time in my life, I openly confessed and discussed my mental issues with a friend of mine. I felt much better afterwards, regardless of his reaction, and I appreciated that he listened, tried to relate, and asked me to follow up when I get professional help.

He might not have been the *best* person to talk about mental health with, but he was there at the right time.

If you need to talk to someone, don’t wait for the perfect circumstances: Do it now.

@steko Buondì! 🌺
