Thaddeus @Thaddeus@occult.camp
Ze/hir or ey/em pronouns. I'm a nonbinary butch lesbian. 25.
I'm an #animist and probably something in the realm of #pantheist, though I haven't sorted that as well as I should. I attend a #UnitarianUniversalist church when I go at all. I worship gods from the #Norse and #Hellenistic pantheon because that's what works for me. I consider myself a #witch and I'm looking into whether I think #druid might suit. I'm a #hearthkeeper and a #storyteller. I can't separate #naturalhistory from my faith and I belong to whatever land I call home.
I'm Thaddeus and thought it might be a good idea to repost an #introduction now that I'm on a new instance.

Yesterday I finished everything but weaving in the ends on a pair of socks I've been working on for over a year. I think I'm going to forever more mentally refer to them as my Solstice Socks. #fiberarts #knitting #socks #SummerSolstice2018
June 30th protests are still *on*. Keeping families together but permanently detained is unacceptable and we must keep pressure on the Baby Prison Party.
And we need to remove them from office and try them for crimes against humanity.

The most frustrating part about not driving at this point is that I'm about to move to Spokane and I don't even know what I think of it there. I've only been there about four times and it was always with a specific goal and the people I was with weren't ever willing to just look around. So I won't know what it's like to try to walk there until I've moved there, and that bothers me.
I'm coming out of hiatus for a few minutes to give yinz a heads up:
To my fellow photosensitive epileptic friends: DO NOT go see the Incredibles 2. Apparently, there's a lot of scenes with strobe lights -- and, from what I understand, one clocks in at about two minutes solid. At no point are there any warnings.
It's hard to believe that, in this day and age, stuff like this is still being made, and without warnings, at that. But here we are.
Anyway, that's all the information I have.
Please know that if I fave your negative toots, I'm not delighting in your struggle, but quietly expressing my support and solidarity; I'm often terrible at using my words to do so (the operative words are "awkward" and "trite").
Please let me know if I can help!
Izzy would like us to consider the many joys that could be found in throwing her ball for her. Please ignore that it's 5am and that we live in an apartment, so there are people sleeping on most sides of us.
someone buy a mall with me so we can turn it into this amazing commit resource center with counseling, career counseling, shelter for homeless/houseless people, legal aid, etc etc etc
maybe even a community garden in the vast amount of parking spaces
My partner's emotional support dog knows we go to play frisbee in the morning. Now, you may not have guessed this, but Izzy.fucking.loves.frisbee. So here I am, trying to eat breakfast, and she keeps bumping into me and nosing at me because she knows that when I'm finished with all this nonsense, I will take her out for The Best Part Of The Day.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”
― Malcolm X
This is so true:
"Check on the caretakers, your stoic friends and lovers, the rocks, the healers and the one’s that are “just fine.” Remind them they are seen."
PSA: if a user habitually boosts stuff you don't want to see, you can turn off boosts just for them without unfollowing them
view their profile in the regular masto UI and you'll see a "Hide boosts from X" in the hamburger menu
this can make the whole experience a lot less annoying, but it's not well-known!
hello everyone please look at my beautiful #cat #cats #mastocat

The Elves listened from the forest.
"Is that humans?"
"They're singing. I like it."
"It sounds horrible!"
"And still they sing."
"Oh. Yes."

1. I am definitely a sucker for Indie games with cute graphics. 2. My Steam library is getting quite developed for someone who does not yet have a gaming computer.
I deleted my github account. It didn't have much on it, but I'm cranky about companies consolidating and gobbling each other up into one giant frankenmegacorp.
I want the internet to be a network of villages with weird yurts and converted school buses, not a few highrises each with a zillion sterile apartments. It's a silly metaphor, but you know what I mean.
