Old white guy living in the #wetlands of #Polesia (#Polesie in Polish) in #EasternPoland. Surrounded by #bogs and #forests, trying not to fuck up surrounding nature too much.

Taking care of a small pack of #dogs (most of them rescue dogs) – #IdąPsięta.

#RuralBroadband provider by accident. Starting a small #LoRaWAN project to monitor our wetlands. Now also learning #Meshtastic. Coding, mostly in #Python. Luddite.

#Atheist. I don't *believe* in #science – science is our defence against belief.

I try to check facts before I toot.

Fuck nazis.

I sometimes toot in Polish – jebać nazistów.

Zdolny, ale leniwy.

A hugely underdiscussed effect of the creeping fascism of ICE is that debt collectors and landlords are filing more cases against immigrants, even when they're inflated or outright falsified, because they know immigrants are too fearful of deportation to show up to court to fight them.

anyone got any tips for helping someone escape an abusive situation with no financial resources

in canada for regional advice (would probably end up moving interprovincially to escape)

i'm being intentionally somewhat vague here but any support would help

Taking one of our #cats to the vet for a steroid injection.

We found a #covid conscious vet a couple of hours away and were very excited to go to a vet where masks are required, however we had multiple bad experience with them.

Thankfully we have a local vet who will do curbside pickup/drop off of our pets, wear masks for us, and even did the shot in the parking lot for us. Some people suck, but others are truly awesome. #CovidIsNotOver #COVIDisAirborne #MasksSaveLives #maskingiscommunitycare

I genuinely love this solution because it looks so weird at first glance, but it makes so much sense when you think about it

it’s a very good solution to a very significant problem, but one most people won’t ever have to think much about

occasionally, living in downtown toronto, I’ll end up walking past a film shoot

and sometimes, when I do, I’ll get to see one of my favorite solutions to a problem
