So, I have decided to keep pretty much all of my activity at Octodon for the time-being. ^-^;; It's too much work to maintain a consistent presence over multiple instances at this time, although I have set up a number of other accounts for whenever I wish to branch out. ^_^

I will admit this was a part (a small one, but a part nonetheless) of why I wasn't around as much.

Thank you to each and every one of you for your patience and understanding. <3 I love all of you.

"FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (Reuters) - The Florida Senate rejected a proposal to ban assault weapons, and voted for a measure to arm some teachers, weeks after 17 people were killed in the deadliest high school shooting in U.S. history."

I'm not sure how to deal with living in a world where The Onion makes more sense than Reuters and the AP. 😢 🙁 😠 😦

Money is not speech.

Corporations are not people.

Something being legal does not make it moral.

What we don't do, generally, is talk about school as an authoritarian environment and what happens to well intentioned people in a system that values the maintenance of order and the status quo. You get a culture where it's much easier to be a petty tyrant and to enforce the system's expectations than it is to "make a difference". You get, in short, something that looks a lot like what cops do.

As a kid, I grew up online due to the bad life situation I was in. My online friends saved my life in more than one way, and I turned out decent thanks to them.

I still believe in the power of the Internet to connect people and change lives. So if anyone in the Mastoverse needs a weird online friend, I'm here and I care about you.

QOTD: "Don't pigeonhole me. I don't have feathers."

It's okay to have too many hobbies. You are not a machine.

Boost if you want a better world.
