Contrary to popular opinion, I'm not dead. Sorry to disappoint.
Where was I? I decided to do an experiment. For the past year, I have used a different account, on another instance, under a different name. There I had a policy of not following anyone unless they followed me first, and following back anyone that followed me, no matter what. I wanted to see what's the worst that can happen, how toxic Fedi can become. I wanted to see Fedi unfiltered. I guess y'all didn't disappoint.
Some of you, I've stumbled upon again. Some I got the pleasure or displeasure of following again (because you followed me first). Some of you I barely got to talk to, and some not at all.
The experience started decent enough, the first half of the year was ok, but later on, the experience became unpleasant enough that I started opening Fedi rarer and used it less. In a way, that is a positive in itself, but there are better ways to quit social media. Turns out, if you just follow everybody on Fedi, your timeline has the potential of becoming useless trash very fast.
If you're curious about my alt identity, I'm sure you can find it. There are enough clues out there and I'm not planning on deleting that account or erasing any of my posts. But I will not name the account myself, and don't expect a confirmation from me if you confront me with it. Personally, I'm amazed no one made the connection already.
What will I do going forward? I don't really plan on coming back here, nor on continuing with my alt identity either. I might be here for a day or two, but I'm moving on. Where? Who knows. I'm not planning on telling anyone anyway.
I've met interesting people on Fedi, and I don't expect to forget them anytime soon. But, I don't see much usefulness in Fedi anymore. It was an exciting platform because I met people with views different (mostly more extreme) than what I've seen before. But this has grown stale. And since I prefer anonymity and fading away in a crowd, let's say that too many people for my tastes, on either account/identity, have come to know me.
So I'm gonna start from scratch somewhere else. I haven't even decided where yet, so don't ask.
I laughed with some of you, and I fought with others. I bear no ill will to anyone. I've seen plenty of you burdened with too much hate, so I hope you guys find enough happiness in your lives, so that you forget about hating. I hope all of you get to be happy.
Thank you Igel, @Awoo and BigCums for introducing me to this world. I shall continue to awoo, drool over Asian waifus, and make big cums for as long as I live.
Goodbye for now. Have a good 2024!

Silly dream for a silly day
So I dreamed that a Serbian military airplane invaded my country's airspace, and it was all up on the news.
Concerns that we were being attacked, confusion, all that. So we tried to tried to send our own plane, to get close and establish radio contact, and figure out what was up. It took a while, both planes were shitty old Soviet models, so not very fast or maneuverable, but they eventually got close enough together for our pilot to ask "what's up, you invaded our airspace".
The response we got from the Serbian pilot: "I know, I'm just trolling you guys. Bye!". And then he turned around and flew away.
If you're Serbian, a military pilot, or especially both of these, please don't do this.
Update on this: there's a backup.

Well... if our power grid drops out due to "extreme temperature variations", I have my ebook reader charged, I have a good amount of AA and AAA batteries, I have an old MP3 player ready (the kind that runs with AAA batteries), a simple portable radio, a few roms loaded in my phone's Retroarch, and a bluetooth gamepad that has a surprisingly long battery life.
I'm fairly confident I'm not at risk of getting bored. Though I can't rely that much on gaming on my phone. Still, it would hold longer than a laptop. And I could probably charge it a few times over from my laptop and power bank.
