#FamilyMan been married for >15 years and have two daughters. Those three girls are my greatest love on this planet.
I consider myself a #GNU Evangelist. Learning about what #FreeSoftware was, including GNU/Linux, opened my eyes to so many things: governments aren’t the only ones stealing individual rights, I know so much less about computers than I thought I did, the idea of code, I can make a difference without having to know anyone particular.
I’m employed as contract Engineer in the Metal industry. My workplace is not yet unionized, but I’m hoping to fix that. #Union member of the #IWW IU440. I don’t have an engineering degree. After discovering Free Software I took my political scientist butt and found a call center job that paid for me to go to Community College to study Software Engineering, where I learned that I liked the idea of coding a lot more than I liked coding. The blessings of God put some great opportunities in my lap at just the right time.
I’m a #Libertarian and have been for over 20 years. The love of libertarianism is what lead me to first to a BS in #political science and later to falling in love with Free Software. These days I lean toward the left side of the libertarian spectrum including being a member of the Libertarian #Socialist Caucus of the Libertarian Party (LSC-LP). Sometimes I call myself a #LibSoc.
I’m a huge #sports fan, but don’t following any particular sport/team super closely. Lately I’ve been getting into #Cricket in addition to my other passions of Professional #Wrestling, Lower Division North American #Soccer, NHL & College #hockey, #baseball #olympics & #rugby (union and #RugbyLeauge). My whole life used to be American #Football, but now-a-days I can’t stand it anymore than I can basketball.
I’m a #BornAgain #Christian, accepting #Jesus as my savior at age 9. Received #Believers Baptism at age 18. Received the baptism of the #HolySpirit as evident in speaking in #tougnes later that year. The #Spirit lead me to the #Catholic #Church at age 20 where I was confirmed at the Easter Vigil. I am a grateful believer in Jesus Christ in #recovery from lust. #XA #SA #CR Currently in the very early stages of discernment for joining the #Ecumenical order of #Fransicans (#OEF).
@abbadon420 @Flatworm7591 but pirates are anti-facist too.
@Jean_le_Flambeur @Flatworm7591 maybe you should have voted for them.
@GeekFTW do they have a kid who isn’t in the pictures? Usually Chuck E. refuses entry to adults without children.
@GeekFTW I find it incredibly humerous that this is the comments I have seen on an issue since I started following this group
@ImADifferentBird particularly as he spent most of his career in late day wcw
At least AEW dodged one bullet.
@GeekFTW [quote[Wrestling in another place for eleven years, I felt very restricted. Since going to TNA, I’ve felt that creative freedom, it was insane to come to the table with an idea and for them to just just go “Yep, let’s do it” and run with it.”[/quote] I wonder if Ash said “just” twice like that or if Sam typo’d it.
@ArugulaZ oh that was my profile pic until earlier today. Did you mean Mr. Data rather than Mr. Putin?
@FlashMobOfOne I agree with you on a personal level. If others want to volunteer to do such I think they have a right to, even if I would recommend against them personally exercising such a right.
@awwwyissss @FlashMobOfOne if a cause is just it should be able to be taken care of voluntarily.
that’s the way to cross post from Friendica
@JackFromWisconsin I feel like back in the 90s these types of conversations happened nearly weekly in our High School Chemistry class with our regular teacher. Substitutes, woa nelly you better hang on!
Nobody hates Star Trek as much as Star Trek fans.
@GeekFTW yeah, lets not do that.
