I was referred to read the book "They Thought They Were Free" by one of the bees here and it's great. I have a copy of it on document and my library has the audiobook version. I am studying Spanish and sometimes I think I'm such a hack at it but today's lesson with my sweetheart Argentinian teacher made me feel like I'm making progress. Some dickwad at a karaoke bday party gave me covid last week. Today is the first day of being covid negative. Paxlovid sucks, though. I finished building an RSS for myself so I can pick the good newsources and let the shitty ones be. I also finished studying pixelfed and cherry pick last week. Old friends are reaching out to me because the state of this country (the US) is scaring the shit out of everyone and they are coming to me to teach them about decentralized socials and because I worked as a human rights journalist/analyst for over a decade.* I guess they find comfort in talking to me. I donated money to archive.today and uhhh sh.itjust.works. Will donate to beehaw. My cherry pick instance is worried about being hosted here in the US and I told the mod I'll try and help them figure out a move. So any thoughts on that would be great.
