I am so happy to be here at Beehaw (beehaw.org)
 

First of all, I am speaking to all of you in a non-official capacity. Hence, why you are finding it in the chat community.

Secondly, I am very grateful and humbled to be in the position of a Beehaw administrator. The other four Beehaw administrators are a joy to work with, each with their own superpowers that they bring to the table.

Approximately 13 years ago, I kept waking up every morning feeling overwhelmed with thankfulness. That may sound strange and I never expected to have this sort of problem. Weeks and months of this feeling, with no relief in sight, I came to the end of my rope. I cried out to the universe: “What am I supposed to be doing?!?!?!”.

The answer came moments later in a telepathic whisper inside my mind: “Bless others as I bless you”.

To some, this may sound like I am schizophrenic. I assure you that I am not.

I started by simply being as generous and kind as possible with everyone around me.

And now, I am continuing with this trend by blending it with my professional background. Namely, information technology. More specifically, beta testing (e.g. Orkut, Gmail, Imzy, Tildes to name a few), web development, social media and the like.

I am honored to be in the position that I am. I am, incredibly, fortunate.

Beehaw’s ’Northern Star’ (e.g. guiding principle) is to be(e) nice.

I hope that all of you find it in your selves to carry this torch through the rest of your lives.

Bowel movement?

This is absolute insanity. Hopefully, the entire Russian LGBTQ+ community will move from that awful place.

It also basically undoes all of the security and privacy features of Signal.

I'd like to have a source for this claim, please.

Long time Primus fan here. Saw them in a small bar in Trenton New Jersey in the early 90s. One of the best shows I've ever seen.

I have an invite link that may get you in faster. Let me know if you want it and I'll send it to you in a direct message. I've already sent it to @UntitledQuitting@reddthat.com

I don't believe there's a wait list anymore. You should be able to just download it from an app store for free. In the future, they'll release a premium version that will require payment.

They spent around $750,000 building that iMessage bridge...shame...However, there are many people self-hosting and still using iMessage on Android...that will, likely, get smacked down soon. I've used Beeper since the early Beta (a little over three years now) and I love it.

A friend of mine is having trouble finding prospective relationships in a rural area of America (beehaw.org)
 

I have a young gay friend who is at their wits end trying to find others in their community. They are, understandably, reluctant to use the Internet for this purpose. We live in a very rural and conservative part of America.

If you have any practical guidance for them then, please let me know. I will be very happy to pass it along to them.

Thank you.
