Brad and I are celebrating our 18th wedding anniversary today, September 14, 2026, in New York City. Brad and I were married on Sept 14, 2008, at the Democracy Forum of the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles. We have been together for 40 years, but we couldn’t get married legally as “husband & husband” until 2008, thanks to a ruling by the California Supreme Court that found the state ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional.

Here are the results for my two favorite posts of yours from recent times:

Nun sind die FediDays leider vorbei. Es war total inspirierend, und ich habe mich sehr gefreut, so viele Menschen mal in echt zu treffen.

Dank @_elena habe ich sogar zum ersten Mal ein #Plushtodon getroffen

Habt alle eine gute Heimreise, bis hoffentlich nächstes Mal!

Tonight at 18:30 at FediDay Berlin, I’ll be presenting and running a workshop about LeaveX.

If you’d like a preview, or want to contribute before we even start, everything is already online:

📊 Slides: https://slides.eza.link/leavex-fediday/

📌 Session: https://ctalx.c-base.org/fediday-2026/talk/UA7NE7/

📝 Collaborative pad: https://pad.okfn.de/p/leavex

🎥 Live stream (added)

The workshop is meant to be participatory: we’ll work together on concrete actions that can help people, organisations and communities reduce their dependence on X and other Big Tech platforms.

Feel free to start editing the pad already with ideas, examples, comments or possible actions.

If you’re at FediDay tonight, come take part in the workshop, not just the presentation. 🙂

Leave X: Protect Democracy FediDay 2026

Leave X is a civic project that encourages European politicians and political institutions to reduce their dependence on X and transition to healthier alternatives. This session will introduce the campaign and explore the democratic risks of platform dependence. It will also ask how people across the Fediverse and Bluesky can collaborate to reduce barriers to leaving X and take action.
