Good Morning Digital Neighbors! Hello all you Friends & Refugees at Rubin Report, Phamily & Dawn Patrol at Phetasy, Triggeratti, Fascinating People and Bigots at the Nometry, Seekers of Sanity & Civility at Tusli, Quarterlings at the Quartering and of course our own homegrown ADD Irregulars and Weird Shit Niche' Vagabonds at Padre's. I thought that introduction might serve as an illustrated guide to communities where I roam when I visit Locals.
Among these communities, I have been with the Rubin Report the longest, since it earliest days as I waited for @DaveRubin to found it after the while Patreaon fiasco. I joined Phetasy and Triggernometry during the early days of the Shamdemic when I needed a laugh and some perspective on how upside down our society when overnight. Yes, yes, I know the death were real and the illness is too, the SHAM is how the government handled it and the mostly "safe & effective" supplement everyone was expected to take to remain a contentious citizen. I tend to really appreciate @BridgetPhetasy "this is my vaccine passport" shirt. I joined Tulsi's community when it first opened, but left because I found my time stretched too much to attend to all these communities, but I think I am just going to accept that Locals is a good way to support Content Creators I appreciate and visit them as time permits. I hope to make the best of my return visits to her community. I wish the best of luck the all the Qurterlings in the founding of their Locals and wish Jeremy @TheQuartering good fortune in not waiting to be canceled by the "Rightthink" communities of the Enemedia and Legacy Tech Oppressors.

Today marks the three hundred and thirtieth birthday of the Frenchman François-Marie Arouet, better known by his nom de plume, Voltaire (1694-1778).
Born into a bourgeois family during the reign of Louis XIV, the “Sun King” (r. 1643-1715), Voltaire suffered tragedy at a young age when his mother died. Never close with his father or brother, Voltaire exhibited a rebellious attitude toward authority from his youth. His brilliant mind was fostered in the care of the Society of Jesus, who introduced him to the joys of literature and theater. Despite his later criticisms against the Church, Voltaire, throughout his life, fondly recalled his dedicated Jesuit teachers.
Although he spent time as a civil servant in the French embassy to the Hague, Voltaire’s main love was writing—an endeavor where he excelled in various genres, including poetry, which led to his appointment as the royal court poet for King Louis XV. Widely recognized as one of the greatest French writers, and even hyperbolically referred to by ...
