I believe reporting about events as accurately as possible helps move the world in a positive direction.
I believe voluntary mutual aid is better than imposed mutual destruction.
Resistance to oppression is inherent to all life.
Liberation can not be imposed no matter how well intended, as that only changes whose will is imposed on others.

Visually impaired. Thus, I do n̲o̲ alt-text image-descriptions. Please feel invited to contribute such as an @-reply to any of my toots you feel should particularly have such.

You probably heard about me because I am the founder of the Twisted python networking engine open source project. But I’m also the author and maintainer of several other smaller projects, a writer and public speaker about software and the things software affects (i.e.: everything), and a productivity nerd due to my ADHD. I also post a lot about politics; I’d personally prefer to be apolitical but unfortunately the global rising tide of revanchist fascism is kind of dangerous to ignore.
