I wrote another thing and am particularly proud that I managed to include a short paragraph about chickens. The blog entry is not about chickens. It’s another post about politics and life stuff.

Writing is my form of coping — art as therapy, art as resistance.

Silence (a note to myself) – [E]lektrojung[E]

Went to the @jamesdempsey and the Breakpoints show. Met all the people I met in 2019. Felt the same warm fuzzy feeling I had then. Still a safe space. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️Still the best community. Let’s continue to #makesomethingwonderful #wwdc24 ( @shloka absolutely kicked butt!)
Heading out to # #wwdc24. See you in Cupertino. I’m excited to meet coworkers and friends again. It’s always exciting, fun, and humbling.

It’s been a minute since I posted here. Not sure I will have the spoons to post here regularly but here’s a post about my most recent read:

“Red Paint: The Ancestral Autobiography of a Coast Salish Punk” by Sasha taqʷšəblu LaPointe

It’s raw and educational and I am enjoying the read a lot.

Time for a celebratory glass of whisky. I picked the Ardbeg Smokeytrails l up in Germany last week. :)
Big day at work today. This year‘s run up to the conference has been an intense one and I can’t wait to learn about all the amazing things. #wwdc23
Since I don’t do much except work right now, here’s some puppy content. ^^
Time is such a wonky thing. I’ve joined Apple four years ago. Time to celebrate with a selfie now and French food later tonight. :)

It‘s been a very busy week but let me stop by to say:

I‘m here to fight alongside with women, female-presenting/-identifying people, trans people, LGBTQ+/queer people, Drag queens, Black people,… and if you are not an ally to us, here‘s my bisexual middle finger.
