My #introduction or #reintroduction (I moved from mstdn.ca)

Born in England, it took 38 years to realize I was really a Canadian!

It took far less time to realize I was gay.

I work in post-secondary education and spent two notable years as a political staffer in Ottawa & NS. Proud of my progressive values.

I am grateful to live in Mi'kma'ki.

I live in Truro with my family (husband and two grown up sons). The Mi'kmaq name for Truro is "Wagobagitik," which means "end of the water's flow." 🦣

(re)Introduction: I'm Todd, a father, husband, Linux professional, and despiser of hypocrites. I'm a music lover, particularly The Beatles & numerous Canadian bands such as Sloan, The Killjoys, and Limblifter. I'm a wannabe amateur professional amateur comedian who uses humour as a coping mechanism. Aspiring shitposter, self-deprecating to a fault, and physically unable to let a good dad joke go un-posted. My kids got me into Minecraft, and now I think I like it more than they do. Immersed in tech, but I secretly think it's ruined everything. I'm a recent migrator from mstdn.ca, having first joined the Fediverse on November 3rd, 2022. #Introduction #Reintroduction

Qué interesante este documental sobre la reintroducción de #castores en Reino Unido y su papel para restaurar la biodiversidad, prevenir inundaciones en ríos y también sequías.

Alright. I've bounced around instances for a while so I think I'm overdue for a #reintroduction

Hello, I'm Gabriel, my website is gabe.rocks. I'm fascinated and inspired by the free and open web and have really enjoyed my time on the Fediverse. I'm passionate about decentralization and censorship resistance, and like to put what I learn to practice.

Over the last few years, my gears have shifted to an intense (natural) weight loss mission. I'm down almost 280lbs down from 570. Being so large was very difficult and I've learned a lot getting to this point. I regularly record walking monologues and the occasional video update as I make progress.

On the bigger picture, I am highly motivated to learn from others. I think the big problems of our time require us to actually spend the time to meaningfully understand other perspectives. This is what I love the most about being on the fedi, because authenticity is rich soil for both meaningful depth and variety.

Gabe Rocks!

Hello again! Thanks to those who have followed my travels around the Fediverse, (even running my own solo Masto instance for a bit) but I'm settling back into this account, as my home.

I tend to use Mastodon for the things I love and to connect with others.

Also I'm neurodivergent, genderfluid, and my pronouns are she/they.

Sharing my full profile pic to highlight my comfy Dustrial hoodie.
