Initiate the Protocol: Nova Online Now Federating!Over the past couple of months, or, since the beginning of the year, I've been tinkering around with moving, completely, toward ActivityPub. From taking my Twitter activity and killing it in its entirety so that I can run my instance at mkultra, to replacing Instagram with my Pixelfed, to replacing...

You've Been SeveredSometimes I struggle to think of topics to write about on my blog, and as anyone reading might see, the topics are all over the place. In order to continue that tradition, but to keep it in the same kind of theme I've been rolling with lately: Liminality. I wrote...

New at AyaSys: The Howler!For years, and years, I've had a secondary store in Second Life. It was first named Horcrux Business Solutions, when its only products were some adboards and an online indicator. Sometime a few years ago, I noticed that, although small, and mostly unknown, it does make sales here and there....

New at [REVOSA]: Nano Nexus (Void Edition)Brand new at [REVOSA] (my Second Life store), and after quite a bit of time, the Nano Nexus line of shorts has received a "void" edition!

The Toll it Takes: Isolation, Transness, & the Disappointment That Are Other PeopleI wanted to write a story here, in as much a condensed manner as I can, about things I've grappled with, and had going on years ago, and am dealing with the fallout from, even today. But it's complicated, it's messy, it's not fun or happy; it's not a road...

The Backrooms: Fact, or Fiction?We've all been there. The gas station on the side of the road in the middle of the night, the mall near closing time, your own living space at three in the morning. Liminal spaces. A concept that was a sensation on Tumblr years, and years ago. And then it...

Prompt: What’d You Learn in High School?Describe something you learned in high school. I don't always jump into the Jetpack writing prompts, because most of the time they're kind of "Eh." Kind of boring, etc, etc, you know what I mean. But this one is interesting, because you could answer this a few different ways. I...

A Protocol, in the WorksBefore I switched positions and location at my offline job, I was pretty heavily into writing this book. I'm not sure why I've been on a cooling-off period for a couple of months in regard to writing it, but that's how it's been my whole life. Took me three years...

Neo Machina, Offline, for NowSo this has been a thing since the beginning of the year. I had planned to bring it down, but couldn't really stomach it and decided not to. But another month or so of the server bills came in, and it's got me feeling very tight on cash. Especially with...

As Google Increases Predatory Practices, Should You Switch to Peertube?If you've been on the internet for the past five years, or even the past ten years, you might remember that moment on Twitter where someone noted that the people at Google's headquarters in California took down their "Don't be evil" sign and/or removed it from their CoC, as if...
