@cwebber I really like "I can but it's not convenient," as a response because it lets the other person make the decision about how important the request is, rather than you trying to make that decision - you, as the person not needing the thing, probably don't know best how urgent or important it is! (My partner and I give each other the "I can but not easily" answer often.)

My new computer setup.

As of today, the constitution does not apply to me. I do not have rights. I do not live under a presumption of innocence. I have no guarantee of a lawyer, or even a court date.

I, and so many other political dissidents across the country, now have no more protections.

As of today, the feds can detain anyone who can't prove their residency. Due to actions the state took against me under the last administration, I cannot prove my residency.

I've been arrested, detained, and SWATted all before. I'm not worried about it happening again. What I'm worry about is this time, so many people are being detained that I won't have as easy a time getting out. 1/n

@cwebber Thanks for asking! My free time the past week went to developing an encyclopedia about the world of #Teraum, a satirical fantasyland I've been developing since I was a wee un, in preparation for some companion projects, like a tabletop RPG ruleset and two podcasts:

(There's been some talk with @AceNovo about looking at using it for something AP/MUD-y, too.)
