Direct messages (DMs) on #Mastodon /#ActivityPub / the #fediverse are not end-to-end encrypted (#e2ee) and you should never include sensitive/private information in them.
Until they are e2ee, this is all we should be telling people. Anything else is irresponsible and could cause vulnerable people harm.
Specifically, it doesn’t matter:
- if your instance admin is ethical or not
- whether Elon Musk can read DMs easier on Twitter
- etc.
It’s not end-to-end encrypted. It’s not private. End of.

Vampires, Queerness, and Shadow Work in “Tarot of the Vampires”

The World Divination Association holds online summits. And they recently held one on Lenormand. One of the great things about these events is that everyone is so supportive. The speakers get to present from their own space, with volunteers supporting them with any IT issues, and it’s open to anyone to speak. The vibe is positive and relaxed. It’s great to see speakers you wouldn’t usually see share their experiences. More details on the blog: https://www.jonesdavyslocker.com/reflection-on/reflection-on-wda-lenormand-summit-2023/
What’s been the best investment for my understanding of Lenormand?
Buying a 60cm x 60 cm folding table that I refuse to take down. I can fit a GT using my larger decks like the Gilded Reverie and the Burning Serpent without having to overlap the cards.
Playing more with GTs is really changing my practice.
I do need to sew myself a reading close that fits rather than just folding some fabric on it 😅

PARENT: "Have you finished writing your letter to Santa?"
CHILD: "I'm don't believe in Santa anymore. Now I believe in a decentralized network of independently operating elves who federate using an open protocol called ActivityPub to share information about children's Christmas wishes and source gifts to fulfill them"
