Heraus zum Internationalen Frauenkampftag!

Yup, saved my ass.

(Still FX mourning content. 🕯️)

It is remarkable just how loud some Psytrance is produced. -0.72 LUFS is absurdly high. For comparison, streaming services are asking for about -14 LUFS.
Stabil wie immer. #39c3
Frühstück!
Mal was ganz anderes.
Unsere Kinder sind so zuckersüß!
Wondering whether @taviso would pull through. Because Perri Adams is on stage for the #OffensiveCon keynote for CVE-2023-25136, sketching an exploit idea.
You might not like it, but this is what peak compiler performance looks like.

What happened at ElaCon stays at Elacon. But here's some declassified information.

This was an event that by far exceeded my hopes and expectations. It had everything: reuniting with old friends from back in the day, forming bonds with new friends, interesting talks and workshops, sunshine and walks in the forest, a seed exchange, antifascist direct action, good food, good music, cuddle piles, and finally a party that Dionysos, god of fertility, ecstasy and wine making, would have approved. Ten out of ten, no notes, would do again.

My heartfelt thanks go out to all of you who made it there. I was only wishing this into existence, making it happen required all of you to come and contribute. I can only echo what many of you reported: these days with all of you brought me from a realm of despair to the place of hope, from the feeling of gloom to a renewed sense of agency, community and a future.

For a few precious days, I was your queen, the most beautiful woman, and I was wielding what the darkness fears most: the flaming sword that brings joy to your faces, that makes children dance and sing, that puts hope into people's hearts.

A wise person once noted that one should never underestimate the ability of a small number of dedicated people to change the world - because nothing else ever did. My hope is that we planted a seed here, not just having a few days of joy with friends, as valuable as this is, but also painting a way forward, out of doom scrolling, into effective actions.

I will end with two pictures. One is from a presentation, and I think it speaks for itself. These are the times we live in, and we need to form strong communities to face them. The other one was a present for me, an actual painting on canvas, called "Metamorphose", by Wayra, a.k.a. Nora Teichert. It literally made shed tears of joy, because this is how I feel, and it means the world to me that my friends see me like this as well.

I have reached my true form. I have never felt happier, more beautiful, or more powerful ever in my life. And I am blessed to call so many of you my friends and lovers, and I am grateful that you have gifted this experience to me.
