Canadian, watching from the north. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Into history, science, futurism, tech β€” anything that turns into a 2am research rabbit hole. Politics, current events, and occasional chaos. Views are my own.

Grew up in Kenora, Carleton U BA1981. Gypsyed around NWT, Northern AB, BC, settled since 1990 in RMH (AB).

Fun me: Dad joke dispensery. World builder and Dungeon Master. Raising kids to be geeks, gaming with a close knit crew and wilding out about damn near everything. Ultimate wife guy champion.

Serious me: Tech Support facilitator. Union Steward. Antifascist and Luddite. On the front line of the war between human and capital. The boot will never lick you back. Fuck big tech in new and interesting ways at every opportunity.

I'm an old Canadian and an old Phart too. 😁 I take life as seriously as the current situation requires. I block cross-posts from X, Truth Social and Bluesky. Not interested in them. Any toots I post, that are not in English, are via online translator.
I do *NOT* DM with with anyone I haven't interacted with in public. Saying "Hi", without anything else, doesn't count.
