Thanks everyone I appreciate it I kinda really needed to hear that I’ll try not to shut down or silence or up play whoever is me at the moment and I’ll try to get back comfortable in my own skin

I’m going to finish this, even if you never see it. And if I return, yall are 100% going to get to see it.

Very informational, thank you Oh, I did have a question about #2 (the 45GB one). Wdym by that?

DARKNESS AND LIGHT MEAN DUALITY

Who knew my name was so pun-able lol

I am here to save the day. not sure if that's the file, but eh. Looks like it. Yuri do be fire.

A Ryn's a Ryn however a Ryn Ryns You're both the chaotic, energetic woman and the more serious and mature woman And we all think you're pretty storming sick whatever your mood or tone

*hugsss* we love you whether your a chaos gremlin or like uhhh like who’s someone serious idk like a ceo or smthin we love you for who you are and your personality changing doesn’t change that i don’t miss ryn the chaotic or ryn the anything else I’m just happy that ryn is still here

naturally, if you were to look at my past on the shard, the way I talked was... kinda so different that it feels fake we see how different I am now. we all change over time. we become different, as our experiences shape us. people will miss the old you, so cherish her. but do not attempt to replace the current person you are with nostalgia of the past

maybe I should start a blog...

I think the beautiful thing about music is that people are open to interpret it how they like

Can you give a blog post on reverse image searches? I know it's not super crazy relevant to the blogs theme, but I only have google as a good reverse image search, and was wondering if you had any recs.

Ever heard of stream-of-conciousness style writing? I think you'd be very good at that. I'm happy you're doing better. One thing I'd like to address: "How can I think, How can I speak, When I question everything? I constantly double-check, I continuously re-assess." To this, I'd like to share a small bit of writing. I don't do this often, but here it is: "To act? What does it mean “to act well?” To make good decisions? To act on instinct is folly. To act on volition is folly. For instinct is by nature flawed, And volition is by bias flawed. “To act well”, is to act minimally, is it not? “To despise”; Each act of despicableness is perceived by a thousand eyes. “To act”, is to be a fool. “To act well”, is to avoid doing so. But I ask you, who does this benefit?" Something I wrote when I was a bit younger. I was typing my immediate thought processes, so it isn't very coherent. To elaborate: Double-checking, reassessing, etc. all of your actions, thoughts and such: This is analysis paralysis. It's always good to keep a close eye on your views. Ensure that you let them change. But you need a balance, I think. As the above points out: It's impossible to make an objectively "good" decision. The alternative is to do nothing at all. Are you willing to do that? Strip away your ability to act and change things, take away your own humanity, for the purpose of consistency? Make your mistakes. Look back at them, and never regret. Live with the knowledge that whatever decision you made, was one made by you and because of you. Funnily enough, in my opinion there is little worse than not being able to take responsibility for a decision. Because that means YOU weren't really the one acting. Another, in one way or another, forced your hand. Who's life are you to live, if not your own?

Can I just say these are amazing and it always makes me really happy when I log on and go "aha, today's yuri!" Because this is genuinely awesome

We all just start morphing into the spider-man pointing meme wait explain this one to me my brain tired and is not functioning to its fullest potential

That is legit genius yes I’m on board We still have a running theory that we’re clones of each other so I believe this YES

YES Ryntribution

I like pale mint green!

I just saw this I don't know how I missed it. @Keteᛕ, if you still want to, that would be great. @Verdance, if you ever come back, I would love to do it with you.

My favorite shade is Emerald Green

oh yeah I do too (recently)

Nature is mundane until you look at it

You're welcome So lets say that I download a documentary over the Tor network. The documentary is 45GB, that information has to go through each of the nodes before it reaches my computer. So if someone such as the NSA or another government organization in another country has the ability to watch global or near global internet traffic, they can see that this website sent out 45GB worth of data, at say 3:26PM. They can also see that my ISP sent 45GB worth of data to me at the same time. Now for most users the amount of data moving is small and will blend in with everyone else's. However if you're doing something like downloading a three hour documentary your government is suppressing because it exposes a politician's corruption, if they are paying close attention you might stand out.

I will point out that many times, free third-party vpns (third-party as in not associated with official/big business) are actually a significant danger to personal information leakage. remember, if the product is free, you are the product and this can take a few forms but if they’re a larger company usually this means that using their free services makes you more likely to use their paid services

Stream of conciousness is like french: The author is under no obligation to make the reader understand their intended meaning. That is the reader's problem. It presents the transient nature of thought, as best one can: And I think you do so quite naturally. And in a way that is far more understandable than other variations, mainly due to formatting. An example of stream-of-conciousness wriiting is Ulysses, by James Joyce. A novel written entirely in that style. Massive headache of a read, but I think you might want to check that out.

Also I didn't say but uhhh it was nice to see I helped, or at least was part of your journey/stuff

Hey, I'm so happy for you! 🩷

Idk if you need to figure out right away like if you just figured it out maybe take it slow start by just getting some femine clothing and coming out to close friends then you can go from there

sorry forgot to follow the post *hugs* *blinks* *blinks* *blinkblinkblinkblinks* ah… i have no idea i thought about coming out to my friends, and I knew it would go really well. but there’s the minor thing that the few friends I have, I have no way of contacting, and i decided to come out the day after school was out. so… … what do you suggest?

HI WE LOBE YOU

Now what?

Ah, I see. There is another. Mozilla VPN($59.88/yr) https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/ And a built in Firefox VPN(free) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/built-in-vpn Looks like the built in one is free, but it's just for the browser, not your entire computer, though they claim to not log your traffic other than the amount of data used and if a connection was successful or not, not the actual sites you visit. That'd probably work just fine for you.

Okay, I got a little more information. Looking into it Mozilla VPN is a fork of Mullvad VPN https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/resource-center/vpn-servers-around-the-world/ Which is funny because the Mullvad Browser is a fork of the Firefox Brower, so the two of them are doing the spiderman meme The differences are slight but interesting. Mozilla VPN offers a cheaper yearly subscription than Mullvad's monthy subscription does, and comes with some interesting features if you use the Firefox browser, such as allowing you to use different servers for each tab. Mullvad VPN doesn't require an email to sign up and allows anonymous payment via cash or crypto, however Mozilla VPN according to some sources I've found is a bit more user friendly, though Mullvad has a greater server selection. I'd say that ultimately which one is better is up to individual preferences, though which browser you want to use Mullvad or Firefox is probably a good way to pick between the two of them, though any of the other VPN services will work.

There are 6 characters in the ketek -Maker -Weaver -Creator -Art -Needle -Made

Yeah, but when I try to take a break, I end up farther behind, and then people pester me about getting work done, which draws negative attention, and then I'm back where I started. But also: *hugs back*
