A curious human being focused on creative disruption and making change for the better.

A "seasoned" campaigner and community organizer. An anxious Canadian 🇨🇦 adjusting to living with a #disability (inner ear issues/ sometimes vertigo).

These days i can be found working remotely, exploring decentralized decision making, coordinating a grants program and spending time with my dogs.

Writing a book called The Monkey Flower Experiment, it's about a group of people trapped together at an off grid university on the side of a mountain after a terrible storm. It could be described as a #SolarPunk Lord of the Flies. Stay tuned.

This is now my primary account.

@pixelpop3 @admin happy to send you an invite if you want one. Especially if it helps you leave the bird site. DM me

The fediverse is way better. Interesting to check out what people are building... at least a bit. I find myself wanting to come back here way more than any of the other options.

@drwho @xoggy yeah eh. Maybe it has such a unique footprint it just opens up more tracking opportunities through fingerprinting. 🙃

@dark_stang yeah good call, at least the battery is reverse compatible for powering your home

Wild that the F150 is the biggest selling automobile in North America by a long shot. Would be great to at least get these folks off fossil fuels but...

@CanadaPlus @SpectralPineapple Ive been using Plenary on Android which does a pretty good job of pulling full articles when available. Don't think its FOSS but its seems to be focused on privacy to a certain extent. I love that it can create a custom widget that can replace the google surveillance oriented click bait feed.

I've been experimenting with a few different options on desktop. @thunderbird has been the go to for me for a long time. Since playing with Google Reader lifetimes ago.
