(As noted in the article, CDE isn't really secure to use anymore as a daily driver due to lack of development, but it's good for some nostalgia purposes)

I have the #creativity but again now that I am somewhere I feel safe, and have few restrictions on what I do.

I think I'll make some #videos at night as I like the atmosphere of one I posted about #tariffs trying to explain them again.

I am always scouting for backgrounds, lighting and settings. I never cared for green screens or a white-walled background.

Outside is where I belong, and my #art will always reflect that.

I never expected anyone to notice anyway.

GUESS WHAT GUYS!

Did you know #racialprofiling is a #crime?

I mean #maga didn't. We had to have a whole court case about it in Southern #california to tell Mr. TACO and MAGA it is wrong. Especially when policing or arresting people.

Guess they forget the #usa was built on #immigration. The first colonists were.

So far I have made 30 dollars with the #scoopz creator fund.

I need to start making more #videos as it occurred to me that I have reach now, and I've cultivated a small community that I enjoy.

This means a lot to me as I want to share a much info as I can about my condition, and the situation of being #homeless from something you cannot help combined with #addiction.

Thanks for following me on this.

I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing :)

I’m sharing my experiences with my newborn blog’s traffic.
Two weeks into foodculturebites.com launch #flipboard remains the best source of traffic.
Also worth mentioning is the traffic coming from the #Fediverse.
I can see the metrics in Google analytics => traffic source => first user manual ad content= shows which magazines are sending traffic.
I am following activity on #Surf and publishing feeds to #Bluesky
#publishing, #blogging, #contentcreation, #flipboardmarketing

Aby--not fast, just furious

I'm so tired of leftist content creators who are men being outed as fucking creeps.

I don't deify content creators, or leftists, or other human beings at all for that matter.. but it's so disheartening that every fucking time I find someone who's content I enjoy and learn from, they end up leveraging their online popularity in predatory ways with young women followers.

Be better.

"Don't be a fucking predator" is a low fucking bar - why can't you all get over it??

Mastodon (official) mobile apps and mastodon.social, mastodon.online web UI will include easily dismissable donation banner:
news.itsfoss.com/mastodon-in-a
(Some people often get mad if a project asks for donation within its software UI, but I think volunteer devs also deserve to get some payment for their work, it's fair to include a donation notice, if it doesn't annoy users with its placement.)

Brave and AdGuard will block Microsoft Recall:
brave.com/privacy-updates/35-b
alternativeto.net/news/2025/7/

Bluesky introduces age verification (using payment cards, ID scans, or face scans) for accessing adult content and direct messaging, and content controls for UK users:
alternativeto.net/news/2025/7/
(Yeah we're heading into a dystopian future, where you can't use social media without giving up sensitive information... Or can't send messages because a small portion of predators also use that feature... It shouldn't be the responsibility of governments and social media platforms to protect children, it's the parents' task to protect their children. If governments would really care about protecting children, they would rather push campaigns targeted towards parents to raise awareness of the importance of paying attention what their child is doing online. But nah, this "protect children" thing is only pushed for emotional manipulation, so that the governments can cover their arse, while building surveillance infrastructure.)

YouTube discovers that Pandora's AI box is harder to close than open 📦 Their Partner Program accidentally created a gold rush for algorithmic garbage, and now they're shocked that creators are mining digital fool's gold. Policy updates won't fix what engagement algorithms broke 🤖

Tis done 🎉
My #youtube channel, formerly known as BlindlyCoding, is now named ViewpointUnseen. This allows me to broaden the content on that channel to include a lot more different types of content, from tutorials for the #blind from a #blindness perspective, tech reviews from that same perspective, #gaming streams as well as reaction content when I find sufficient things to react to.
I think there's a lot of value I can offer to the world at large with stuff that's currently locked inside my head and having a bit more time during the work week allows me to spend more time on #contentCreation. Screen reader tutorials? Hacking streams? Videogames? Reviewing pieces of tech and supplying #accessibility recommendations to users AND developers/creators? Yes, all of that and more. Stay tuned!
