Bonjour tout le monde!

Name: Rina.

Age: 41 years.

I mostly post about: My everyday life, my thoughts, the emotional turmoil I am going through day by day, music (A LOT OF MUSIC TALK; this is more than just something I am interested in, it really is my passion :D!), lyrics/quotes/etc references, movies & books (When I can), struggles in my psyche, career talk *__*, spirituality, and also sometimes politics.

I'm looking to meet people who: I'm looking to meet people who don't tame their souls! Who are authentic beyond words, who stand up for their ideals, who are open-minded, kind, creative, intuitive, etc. :D

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Ableism, animal cruelty, animal testing, anti-semitism, arrogance, body shaming, elitism, fascism, fatphobia, homophobia, ignorance, islamophobia, racism, religious fanatism, sexism, transphobia.

Before adding me, you should know: I struggle with my mental health (ORLY?), mainly in terms of C-PTSD, BPD, EDNOS/OSFED, and severe depression, and while I try not to overdo it in terms of expressing what this means, there could be entries in this regard... I will put potentially triggering entries behind cuts, though. Also: I'll be gone from Sunday (2nd) until Saturday (8th), so it might take a bit in case you comment then to answer you or add you back. If you have any more questions/comments, please let me know.

Database maintenance

Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

Ta for now!

Question thread #145

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

There is more to the information battlefield

I have been thinking lately about how the abstract idea of the "information battlefield" actually plays out in practice. You know, the way raw facts, stories, visuals and algorithms get pulled into campaigns that aren't just about truth vs falsehood, but about influence, disruption, trust, identity. One case in point is the war in Ukraine and how it's become as much about narratives as it is about tanks.

On the surface, you see shelling, troop movements, geopolitics. But underneath all that there is a parallel front where messages are being shaped, amplified, twisted. For instance, according to recent research, false or misleading content tied to the Ukraine conflict has surged across social platforms, often using visuals taken out of context, recycled images/videos, sensational claims — all woven into a larger campaign of influence:

AWS outage

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.

tipping my phrygian cap toward you in a cheerful greeting

Before adding me, you should know: that i am open to making friends with people who are very different from me! i think it's wonderful and healthy to be friends with people who have a different worldview from me, and i always try to be nice and respectful, even when i don't agree with someone.

basic info:
tombstuck, mid 20s, missouri usa
 
gender and sexuality: bisexual, poly (not currently open to new partners), trans, enby, femboy, they/them
 
other identifiers: alterhuman, gnome/elf otherhearted
 
my vibes: silly, horny, friendly, excitable, odd and unusual

I mostly post about: daily life, my current exciting interests, music, and fandom
 
My fandoms are: I read widely in any fandom if the summary and tags catch my eye, and if the author is a friend! my fandoms in particular are supernatural, homestuck, and marvel stuff (specifically spider-man right now). But I have a lot of other fandoms I'm less active in too.
 
I'm looking to meet people who: are interested in my writing and will listen to me yapping about it (i will do the same for others!), people who will interact with my journal entries... um, not a dealbreaker by any means but it would be nice to know some other alterhumans, therians, otherkin and things like that, because my brother is a therian, i'm otherhearted, and i don't know any other alterhumans at all.
 
My posting schedule tends to be: very sporadic! i just created my account recently so it's up in the air, but i plan on being here every day for the foreseeable future.
 
When I add people, my dealbreakers are: i'll add anyone who adds me, but i will probably remove them if i have personal issues with them after that.

i hope to hear from some of you soon!~

Name: Agnes

 

Age: mid 20s

I mostly post about: personal stuff and fandom equally, also my creative projects (I'm a huge writer and artist!) I also talk about my tech projects and such. Health struggles & disability/mental health activism and destigmatization. Cooking. Life goings-on. My OCs. I'm trying to get back into using dreamwidth more, so I'd love to make some new friends!

My hobbies are: writing, digital art, watching tv, making video games, playing video games, crafting, thrifting, technology (mostly self-hosting and personal websites right now), cooking...

My fandoms are: I'm a huge science fiction fan, so right now it's Babylon 5, The Orville, Star Trek (mostly lower decks and star trek online), etc. Also super into Yellowjackets and Psych at the moment.

I'm looking to meet people who: don't mind my journal being a little all over the place, are kind and accepting, love science fiction, art, writing, tech, or making OCs, or creativity in general. People who are spiritual but queer-affirming, pro-choice and open-minded. People who like to talk and don't mind if I'm awkward. People who share my fandoms, especially my special interest which is currently The Orville. Other neurodiverse folks. Or anyone who is cool with the things I mention here!

My posting schedule tends to be: sporadic

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, fatphobia. Please don't be a bigot. Also, I don't wish to add anyone who identifies as an "anti" or believes certain types of fiction should inherently be censored, and will unadd for this kind of behavior. 

Before adding me, you should know:  I have autism and dissociative identity disorder. These things make it a little hard for me to communicate, but I promise I always mean well. I also have memory issues.
