I just saw two crows fly in to scare off a hawk that was camping by a bird feeder.

Just screaming into the void
ThibYour irregular reminder that
- Not everything has to be activism all the time
- You are allowed to use the fediverse for fun too
- You don’t need to burn out on every struggle in the world to be a good person
It’s okay to take care of your own mental health and relax.

Social media affect me more than I thought
I've struggled with focus earlier this year. I felt pulled in all directions, overwhelmed by the world, and generally miserable. I decided to abstain from using social media for a week to see if anything would change. The Joy of Missing Out was so strong that I ended up staying off social media for 3 whole weeks. I realized that engaging with social media harmed my mental health, and I could develop strategies to improve my relationship with it.
Mullvad VPNMass surveillance and censorship are escalating in many countries right now. There is a global attack on secure encrypted communication. Often, authorities, politicians, and tech companies work together to push for new laws. One example: when Ashton Kutcher (yes, the actor), through his tech company Thorn, tried to introduce total surveillance of all EU citizens through undemocratic and corrupt methods.

Mr.Mark "The Sharpie King"“If you are using undocumented immigrants' tax records to find and kidnap them, then it was never about them paying taxes.
If you are showing up at their place of employment, then it was never about them not working.
If you are showing up at courthouses, then it was never about getting them to "do it the right way".
If you are kidnapping women and children, then it was never about criminals.
If you're refusing to give them due process, then it was never about the Constitution.
If you are building concentration camps in Florida to keep them here in cages, then it was never about the border.
If you're spending billions to do this, then it was never about the economy.
And if you're doing all this in the name of a 34 time convicted felon, then it was never about following the law.”
