Uhm, is something wrong on MY end or YOURS..?

first time seeing this weird notice (brave browser on intel windows 11 laptop).

@oscarfalcon Probably the anti-DDoS shield (deflect.ca) misfiring.

Turned on my VPN, fixed it it seems.

I wish I could attend one of your readings. The quote about what your parents taught you of resistance resonated with me, because that's how I've always felt. I appreciate your efforts, Cory.

@pluralistic
I listened to your interview with Robert Evans last night. It was pleasant and quite engaging to actually hear you.
