Posting habits: ~60% #Monsterdon, ~20% #Python/#tech, ~20% funny/uplifting/entertaining content. Rare politics-related posts, always using popular hashtags so they can be filtered out. I typically don't boost posts with images unless they have #AltText.

Hi,

Autistic. Please remember that if we ever have a conversation.

Finally retired after working 51 years. Still not sure what I want to do when I grow up.

Left school at 16, worked various jobs for some years then in IT in various places from 1985 until 2008.

Bought a franchise for a lawn care company in 2009, just after the financial fiasco. Found out that was a bad time to start a business.

Did other things.

I use Arch Linux with Gnome and the Vivaldi Browser

Proud to be Antifa, like my grandfather, who was killed fighting fascism in WWII, and was posthumously awarded the Air Medal and the Purple Heart.

What Orwell feared were those who would ban books.
What Huxley feared was that there would be no one who wanted to read one.
