Here for Raspberry Pi, Linux, and occasional Audio Chat, these are hobbies, I am not an expert, I don't try to speak like one, and although I'm fairly smart and capable I'm really not into snotty and/or over technical responses, show me where the science is and I'll read it in my own good time, thanks, it's appreciated x

It's no wonder that I and too many other survivors are doing battle with depression. #EpsteinFiles #CPTSD #PTSD

a very important lesson from #FormerBlackPantherSpeaks about us all having #agency

#GifsArtidote: this wise man explains exactly what's happened to me from day one: #NoAgency, but i haven't stopped fighting & questioning #authority. i am going to follow the whole series of his videos, & hopefully find the strength i need to tackle this one.

As a person with very severe PTSD, I'm really happy that I think so idiosyncratically about things and don't just swallow whatever drivel passes for social justice on TikTok.

It was so easy for me to fall prey to monstrous, inhuman people. For nearly two decades, I was stuck and unable to escape the folks that unmade me.

Fortunately, I've since realized these people also tend to be deeply regressive and opinionated in the same way evangelical Christians are. And no matter how much they claim to support your "kind," that support evaporates the second you try to say that what they're doing isn't helpful.

I'm safer for their rejection. I have wonderful people around me now, and I can tell because "advocates of disabled people" have stopped attacking disabled people, which means only the real advocates of disabled people remain.

Thank you for seeing us.

I have a TRMNL OG and I really love it. I have it cycling some phrases from therapy that help me, and recently it's been this one:

"how did i do today advocating for myself?"

That's been important in this job search. So much of this is not my fault, not mine to optimize or rewrite.

There have been a number of times where the red flag was brighter than my ability to temporarily explain it away in order to move forward in the interview process.

In one case, my ethics were too disturbed. In another, gatekeeping interviews. In all of the cases, I recognized them early and bowed out as soon as I knew it would be a one-sided compromise for me to go any further. Like, if you tell me it's going to be four courses of leet coding from easy to very difficult, that's a "no thank you" on that team culture - forget the impossible test!

But keeping my agency is how I got there. Recognizing what I am worth, and rising above a situation where what will be seen is not the best me I can offer.

after listening i am more determined than ever to publish my story, which i think might be related to this global kabal of exploitation, abuse & murders.

unfortunately i have been too unwell to even dig it back up, #MeToo has buried my trauma deep in the deepest corner of my memory. and i don't think i will ever find out how close i came to being captured for good by these sadistic pedophiles.

i resume my work to fight these bastards tomorrow & build a life worth living for my self, my kids & all my human family

Took the day off work and slipped into a tub filled with water almost too hot to get into, epsom salt with eucalyptus and arnica, added my own vetiver and lavender essential oil on top, and my favorite Sigur Rós live fan recording (2024-09-21 Chicago orchestral show) on the bluetooth speaker. My self-care game is strong, because it has to be

Hello February - Content Warni...

Moving forward, I am driven by the knowledge that the worst part of any of life's hardships is silence. Silence amplifies suffering. Silence alienates us, creating the bedding for shame, doubt, and fear.

I will continue to fill the silence. #silence #survivor #chronicillness #trauma #cptsd #heal

this is what narcissistic psychopathic behaviour IS: frump is deliberately re-traumatising us so we are physically, mentally & emotionally debilitated to such extend that we can't rise up.

my artidote is: ignore them, set limits & boundaries to how much you listen to & watch this kind of #news, & focus on your #self & your #LocalCommunity.

off course, we need ppl to be on top of this but please ⛔️ & think whether you are resilient enough to take it in.

in my own toxic relationships i learned to first take #responsibility for my #self, & not sacrifice my life for any fucker's delusions of self-importance & privilege.. and believe me, i learned the hard way.
