I'm in this weird limbo using this account. I'd like to post more, especially about opinions, thoughts, personal struggles and so on, that I usually don't talk about that much openly. Every time I want to though, I think about each post making it easier to personally identify me in the long run. I don't want all these sometimes personal things I post, suddenly being matched with my person. Maybe I'm just too paranoid, but things like mentioning your birthday and home country can add up.
How would you really define yourself? Political ideas, hobbies, your job, what you consume, not consume and so on only get you so far. Do they even define you as a person? What does it mean to be you?
My personal quest:
“To leave the world a bit better [...]; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived - that is to have succeeded”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
These interests don't define me, but my brain seems to enjoy investing time in them:
- Programming (Python, BASH, Java, Clojure)
- Bouldering, Yoga, Cycling
- Reading (See https://bookwyrm.social/user/burgess)
- Philosophy, Design
- FOSS, GNU/Linux, Privacy
