Hi, guess who's back to scream about a book they just read only to completely disappear from Tumblr again immediately? Yup, it's me.
In other words: I just finished The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood and oh my god, I can't believe we live in a time where perfectly tropy romance novels hit the best seller lists. This story is a blessing and it warmed my heart and I blazed through it so quickly!
If you're a sucker for tropes such as fake-dating and "the Grumpy one falls in love with the Sunshine one" - this book is for YOU!

Soooo basically, I know I'm late to the party, but I've got Covid. Day 3 of isolating, still feeling feverish and having developed a really mean cough. My days so far have consisted of watching Netflix or Youtube Videos, moving between my bed and the couch and sleeping a lot. I did find out that our local pharmacy delivers (if you order early enough) but the grocery stores don't - so it's bread, noodles and delivery pizza this weekend.
I just finally watched Bohemian Rhapsody so I know what y'all have been yelling about what feels like ~ 5 years ago... I know I'm late to the party but FUCK YEAH WHAT A GREAT MOVIE!
Hi, I'm writing an article on cool new projects on public transport / mobility in Europe. Mainly stuff such like the Barcelona superblocks, bike highways in Copenhagen or free public transport for all citizens in Luxembourg - do you have any other cool projects I should look into? Maybe even smaller projects for rural areas?
A good book makes you feel at home. It’s like, you pick it up and start the first chapter and you feel so welcomed and present in the story - I just finished Wayward Son by @rainbowrowell (yeah, I also can’t believe it took me this long…) but I immediately was transported into the story and the characters felt like family and friends who no matter how long you haven’t seen each other, you just feel …. seen. And understood. 💛 the first time I finished a book in less than a week for a loooong time!

Using the most entry-level open messaging software is fascist bc I have heard Nazis use it. To fight fascism please restrict yourself to proprietary client/server social media managed by oligopolistic Silicon Valley corporations known to cooperate with the US intelligence community and algorithmically expand the influence of genocidal rightwing dictators around the globe
The fact that you see this rhetoric of “telegram is the Facebook Messenger of [evildoers]” on both the left and the right should tip you off it is not a partisan or factional issue. Everyone willing to employ surveillance and censorship will treat e2e encryption as the tool of the enemy bc they can’t aspire to control it
Telegram does suck tho pls use Signal or, better still, Matrix/Element
Ok, I have no experience with this kind of thing, but I’ve been aspiring to have better infosec practices lately so I should probably try one of these. I’m a layman with (basically) no network security knowledge, so can someone tell me how Signal/Matrix/Element differ from Telegram and why they’re better? Also, without having the know-how to verify the security of these platforms myself, how can I know they are safe? E.g. I heard recently that TOR was (partially?) compromised.
Signal is the go-to secure platform, it's Open Source and has a well audited encryption mechanism and it's openness makes it difficult to backdoor. Most journalists recommend Signal for secure tip-offs and so on.
Telegram has the option to encrypt communication but it's closed source, and generally not considered to be a good choice for security.
Matrix is a protocol for integrating a ton of different chat platforms via federated servers, also open source. The encryption seems fine, it's based on Signal's mechanism, but it's not as heavily audited as Signal, it's more intended as a generic chat competitor than a secure chat app so while you could do much worse it's not where I'd go first. In particular one thing Matrix does that you may not like is bridging, linking a matrix room to an external chat service. While this is isn't a huge concern, it means that Matrix rooms might be mirrored to or from a less secure service.
Element is a matrix protocol client, so it'll do everything matrix does. There's other matrix clients of varying quality, I haven't checked in on Matrix in years but last time I was there the client situation was pretty dire, Element looks like a significant improvement usability wise but I won't say more.
I used to use Tox, and that uses a well-audited encryption library called libsodium for high security peer-to-peer communication, so as long as you trust your first peer (who you could set manually) you're mostly good. libsodium is widely used and well audited, but very few people use Tox so it doesn't have as many eyes on it as you might prefer.
You can look for security audits of communication software by security experts you trust, places like the Electronic Frontier Foundation are typically a reliable source which cares about encryption, this is their anti-surveillance tool help page, and you can check the blogs of people who work for them
Tips, Tools and How-tos for Safer Online Communications
TOR is messy because TOR is immensely easy to compromise at multiple levels through no real fault of your own, and requires extremely healthy paranoia if you intend to do anything risky without exposing yourself to a dedicated attacker. If you're just browsing the clearweb through TOR your overall risk is low, but a malicious site can use all kinds of tricks to unmask you and the only real protection is sticking to sites you trust, and even then, darkweb sites that get seized by the FBI or whatever and used as honeypots exist and you can't really do much about. If your threat model doesn't involve being actively surveilled or doing something that would invite active surveillance, TOR is very effective, if you're being actively surveilled or doing anything that would draw attention, caution is required.
If you're considering using Tor and you have not used it before, I strongly recommend learning about Ross Ulbricht and the various things he did that got him caught, which include posting his email address "[email protected]" while using Tor, and using it inconsistently.
It's important to remember is that Tor is not just for avoiding government surveillance, but is also a good tool to protect your identity from non-state actors.
If you are, for instance, creating an account on White Date to flirt with fascists and try to figure out if they're cops or active duty military, it is probably best to ensure that your traffic to the site is anonymized.
If you are, for instance, pirating textbooks on your school network, it is probably best to anonymize the endpoint of that traffic.
If you are, for instance, the parent of a teen in Texas researching how to provide them gender affirming care, you might want to anonymize your traffic.
With ALL of these things it's important to figure out your risk profile. If you're doing something that you think a national government wouldn't like you have to be a LOT more careful than if you're doing something that your school wouldn't like.
Hi, Matrix is super cool because of you have a basic understanding of programming, you can easily host your own matrix server on a raspberry pi! So all your data really belongs to you, not to any intermediate provider company. Get all your friends to join your server and boom you‘re independent from WhatsApp/fab messenger or anything else.
Mittagspause mit dem Kolleg:innen, wir sprechen über Essgewohnheiten bei Kindern und dass bei uns früher das gegessen wurde, was auf den Tisch kommt - ohne Extrawurst.
Eine Kollegin erzählt dann, wie schwierig es als Mutter im Restaurant ist: während ihr Mann sich aus der Speisekarte was leckeres für sich selbst raussucht, geht sie im Kopf ständig durch was die Kinder (1 und 5) essen könnten - und ist total überfordert, wenn plötzlich schon der Kellner kommt und sie für sich bestellen soll.

We let ourselves be bullied into coming home for Christmas and it’s already more than we’re comfortable with. We should have stuck to our plan and stayed at our place but K suspects his dads girlfriend will throw a tantrum if we don’t come?? Idk but we’ve already seen more people in the last 6h than we did in the last two weeks because our parents generation just can’t manage to stay the fuck at home.
Der Nachbar kam gerade hoch und hat rumgeschrien. Wir wären zu laut und würden ihm ständig auf dem Kopf rumtrampeln.
Wir waren gerade ne halbe Stunde draußen um Essen beim Italiener abzuholen. Und saßen danach mucksmäuschenstill am Esstisch. Und dann am Schreibtisch. I don’t get it.

Man, being an adult is really just working, eating and sleeping, huh? And then you cram yourself into a supermarket on a suaturday afternoon during a pandemic for fun and it’s not even fun.
Alternate universe where I literally just to go to school forever (for free) so I can just learn about art and literature and history and languages for 100 years. No job skills. No credit requirements. No student loans. Just learning.
