- Comment on Theoretically speaking, if one wanted to sail the seas while being not very tech savvy – is using a VPN (Mullvad) enough? I would never, of course… but theoretically? 18 hours ago:
She uses it just fine. They also say they block FaceTime, but we have used it without an issue. Russian government and their technology is not the best. Although who knows, they are getting better, so maybe they will finally succeed.

I am not sure about the actual numbers, but what you describe absolutely happens, more often than people realize. These fucks go after vulnerable people.
- Comment on Would you ever call your son a disappointment? 1 day ago:
No, like others said I might point out his behavior is disappointing, but never him.
- Comment on Would you ever call your son a disappointment? 1 day ago:
Thank you for saying that. I have worked with MAPs (minor attracted people), and majority of them do not want to offend, and understand they can never act on their desires. They were actively seeking treatment and felt suicidal because of their attraction.

As a bisexual woman, yes please. Fat titties make the world go round.

Ok, so there are people on Facebook who believe that many celebrities and politicians are being replaced with doubles, like robots or clones or some shit. I am not even kidding, it’s a mainstream enough opinion on there that you will see it expressed in comments without having to look for it.
I wonder if she is one of those Facebook people.

That’s neat! As an animal lover, I also love the mole in their logo. Not that the logo has anything to do with the quality of the service… but it is cute.

Awesome, thank you for typing all of that out, that’s really helpful. And I subscribed to the community so I can learn more.

You’re welcome! And I’m sure your ass is at least of average intelligence. I mean, how smart does it really need to be to fulfill its functions?

Thanks! I am learning a ton today. I’m googling every term I don’t know. Feeling very “galaxy brain” right now.

Thank you! And let’s hope it’s never made illegal, so we can continue to do things legally while respecting our internet preferences…

I am not the best source for that because my mom avoids watching the government channels. But what I do know is they only report “positive” stuff about the war, like how Ukraine is being “liberated” and how Russia is valiantly fighting for its life and values. It’s sick. They never report on true casualties on either side and just say they only hit military targets.
When I lived back there in the 80s and 90s, we experienced a temporary reprieve from this kind of bullshit. For a short period of time, people felt free. The economy sucked, but it actually felt good to know you had a semblance of freedom of speech, comparatively speaking.
Now it’s back to fucking Stalin times. Like they say, all of Russian history can be summed up as “and then it got worse.”
If you want to learn more about Putin’s rise to power and how it was back then, I highly recommend The Man Without A Face by Masha Gessen. It was written in 2012, and it shows exactly who Putin is.

Awesome, thanks. I’m learning all kinds of theoretical things!

Do you know what a “safe word” is? I’m asking seriously because if you don’t, I’ll start my explanation there, but I don’t want to assume you don’t.
It’s a joke about kink and the safe word being impossible to remember or use plus a play on tech security with the cat o’ nine tails being made out of wires.

Such a hilarious movie! Perfect reference, A+.

Thank you - I believe that’s accomplished by setting Mullvad as the network interface in the client, which I did :D. But I will double check to make sure, theoretically speaking.

Brilliant.

Thank you. Yes, it sucks. She is 81, and chose not to come here (USA) because everything she knows and her friends are all in Russia. It was really tough for her to be anti-war and lose friends over it, but at least she has not fallen for any propaganda like my dad did. I’m really proud of her, she uses a VPN and knows how to do a lot on the internet for her age.

Ooh, this is exactly the kind of stuff I need to learn how to check, thank you!

Sweet, I’m doing something right, lol. I got my mom using Mullvad in Russia so she can get normal news and stuff, and I just top her account off with my American card cause she can’t. Such a great system.
