Something that has bothered me for a while... A lot of people use LinkTree for creating a profile with all their #socialmedia #links... The problem is #LinkTree is a data harvesting / tracker site.

Thankfully @eposvox pointed out another service to me (via his profile) today: https://bio.link/ - it's a free to use alternative, that doesn't track personal info beyond click throughs (no IP, no cookie, etc.)

It's from the Buy-Me-A-Coffee folks and looks really really good.

I was explaining Mastodon to my wife and how it's different from other social media sites. I explained that I find it to be an inclusive, welcoming place. I explained that nearly everyone I follow is either gay or neurodiverse or trans or disabled. I explained that it's the first place I feel like I can actually really be myself and that people here are welcoming and supportive of me being myself. And that's why I've been so happy lately. She said "why don't you tell them that?" and I said ok!

After a long slew of odd coincidences, and finally being stared down by a pair of ravens while holiday music blared down the street, I give up; I understand when someone's sending a message.

So I am proud to announce a special project for the holidays, Óðinna Álfar (Odin's Elves)! We are a small set of antifascist mystics, pagans, punk philosophers, and witches inspired by Food Not Bombs to create a decentralized gifting network for the Yule season.

How to participate? Simply do an act of good will for those in need between now and 21 December, tell us about it in a post with the hashtag #odinnaalfar, and incorporate the attached symbol in the post in some way. These acts can range from setting up a food drive, handing out warm clothes to houseless folks, or going full Santa Claus and dropping off gifts to kids who could use 'em.

To join a private telegram chat for organizing, just send me a message and I'll hand off the link.

Happy Yule, and happy gifting!
