I’ve been working to get a bit more engaged online this year, but my activity on the fediverse has been constrained.


Five years ago today we visited Katican Island (Pearl Island) in Guiuan, Eastern Samar, Philippines. It was a beautiful place and I enjoyed seeing the life in the water.

I put my devices together to charge them and my geeky interests become obvious.

Today I received this email reminding me of my first awkward days being social online and using the frozentruth handle I’d use for years after. LiveJournal was a vital place when it was at its peak. I made friendships that lasted long after we stopped using LJ, including my second girlfriend and people in fandoms that stayed important to me. The fediverse feels like the closest to that experience now.
