I've said it before, so but I'm one of the Fediverse's box ticking members.Neurotypical, Cis gender, Hetero, "able bodied" (for now), male, with very little knowledge of computer touching, windows user, never been inside a fursuit, even for school productions. And I like football (soccer).I realise you all only put up with me because I tick a lot of inclusivity boxes. That's ok. I'm still glad to be here as your token normie 😉Reverse woke.(For those that don't know me so well, there's a big slice of sarcasm here. Nearly every word is true, but I'm included because we are inclusive, even to people like me).

I want to share something that happened this week at camp. We have a mixed gender scout troop (basically, if you have (or don’t) a gender, you are welcome). Five of my scouts went on a whitewater rafting trip, a 2 hour bus ride away. On the way up, a young scout with some impulse control issues from another troop was misbehaving. My scouts tried to stop him and alert adults who eventually separated him, and gave him more supervision.1/4

The best way to get around censorship is very dependent on where you are, and what types of censorship you're running into. https://ssd.eff.org/module/understanding-and-circumventing-network-censorship

Every men's room should be stocked with tampons and pads at all times.After all, tampons and pads are very useful for treating gunshot wounds. Gunshot wounds are very manly. Let people be manly.

Just visited an online PC mag on a different phone, it has a adblocker detector which swaps away from the article to a page that begs you to turn of your adblocker. Unsurprisingly, it works fine when I have all JavaScript disabled, like I have by default on my main phone #privacy #adblocker

La Ley KIDS avanza en el Congreso de EE. UU. combinando KOSA con otros proyectos de ley. Aunque dice que no exige verificar la edad, en la práctica empuja a las plataformas a comprobar la edad de todo el mundo, vigilar el discurso lícito y debilitar la mensajería cifrada. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/06/kids-act-would-require-age-checks-get-online?language=es

Season 4 of The Button starts on 24th July (19:00 UTC). Chat opens a few hours earlier. This has been a massive change and upgrade to previous versions, including a host of new features and architectural changes. It took a little longer than planned as I hit a bit of general burnout but I’ve finished most of the changes and it’s all ready to go! You can sign up now at thebutton.social if you want to get notifications :)

EFF helped expose Texas' use of automated license plate readers to track down a woman suspected of self-managing an abortion. Our friends at Mayday Health helped make sure pregnant people were aware of the surveillance risk. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/07/we-want-texans-know-their-rights-qa-mayday-health-impact-surveillance-abortion
