#Identity
I always thought it was interesting that I felt the need to define what a "gamer" was when I was a kid, and it was because I wanted to peg my identity on something that I thought was cool at the time. I wanted to define it based on experiences that you needed to have in order to really be one. Think a desire to exclude "fake gamer girls." (It's a good example even though I never wanted to do that.)
So if you want to define membership in a group based on common experience, you immediately run into the "problem" that there are infinitely many and increasingly diverse ways of experiencing interaction with that group. How could you possibly overcome that for a definition but to abandon the project of an expansive definition and choose, instead, minimum qualifications?
So what was my minimum qualification definition of being a "gamer"? It was "You can't call yourself a gamer if you haven't played Mario 3." Remember I'm discussing my (conscious and unconscious) thoughts as a child in the 00s, so Mario 3 was old and felt a little exclusive because I had a hand-me-down NES and my friends got to play with PS2s. And it's fun. I used to say it was the best game ever when I gave a damn about that sort of thing, which was another factor in this.
But the point is not necessarily which game I chose. It is why I chose a particular game at all, and how I came to that one. I chose a game because it was a minimum bar, as I explained, but I went into this idle thought trying to define membership in a group that I already believed I was a member of, right? So I chose a game that I had already played. Because I believe I was a member, I never would have defined myself out.
A significant part of my personality was being propped up by having an answer to this question of "what does it mean to be a gamer?" It mattered a great deal to me then because I wanted an identity. I would have been devastated if my process revealed that I was not, in fact, a gamer because I did not do something yet or did not appreciate an experience that a gamer would (such as going to a con, which I dislike now but had literally never done then). I needed to feel comfortable in knowing that I understood membership in the group and that I was a member, so I would accept nothing else to the contrary.
So, anyway, let's talk about why you feel the need to define "creativity," "artist," and "author" at all. Furthermore, let's discuss why your desire to keep people out of these groups based on experiences you expressly do not wish to understand is the same as the movement to label "fake gamer girls."
(Minus gender oppression.) (Although probably not "minus gender" because the typical stereotype of an uncreative artist, a mediocre artist, or especially an AI artist is certainly masculine.)

She's Not There by Jennifer Finney Boylan
A story of growing up transgender and in denial, this book is unremarkable in a good way. It's a coming of age story where the protagonist is married with children. This is the kind of book you should read if you're finally feeling up to the task of imagining yourself in the shoes of a transgender person. This is the story of trying to choose a lie for forty years and finally giving up.

According to this essay (see link), neoliberalism is impoverishing us and homogenising us to such an extent that all we are left to do is preserve our identity.
At the same time, we are navigating an (economic) system that shuns uncertainty (and science) and provokes a strong hatred of the distinct, even a fear of it.
Trump, Putin, Musk and Bezos all contribute to this loss of identity, horizon, and health, generating hatred.

I often woke up and lay there in the dark. Usually, this was about a quarter to four. "I'm the wrong person," I thought. "I'm living the wrong life in the wrong body."
To which, I would respond:

Québec's hobby of #language squabbling and fear is something I am deeply jealous of on some level.
I know it happens in other places, and among other languages too, and I am jealous there as well.
Making a tool of communication into a centerpiece of #identity would make so much stuff easier.
Possibly entertaining, even?
It's the same jealousy I have for people who are really into a local sports team or NASCAR or whatever.
And like those things, it just doesn't move me. I am missing out.

Is the future of Identity Security AI or is this just more comments on the latest tech craze 😳 I understand the sentiment but it assumes the basics are mature and that data is available and of a quality to leverage. Companies generally are still struggling with the basics of Identity and tooling still isn’t plug and play and simple to implement. My feeling is that most are 2-3 years away from being ready to use AI but I suspect poor data quality and governance will delay real value.

@joshuafoust the web is breaking because it hasn't evolved. Mainly, #identity still isn't a first class component in standard web publishing, so you have to use aliases like email or sign in with FAANG. Provenance should have had draft recs 20 years ago, and no, embedded metadata isn't going to get you very far (Adobe 👀).
#Identity politics everywhere.

I recently boosted a post quoting from this essay - https://neuroclastic.com/the-identity-theory-of-autism-how-autistic-identity-is-experienced-differently/ - about how autism affects the way a person defines their identity.
The more I reflected on it, the more I understood why I often seemed a poor fit within an organization of which I was a member. Most seem to view "loyalty" as being loyal to a person (the boss) but I realize I had viewed it as being loyal to the values and mission of the organization — and that often led to problems.

#feminismus #identity
'I asked people one question: Who are you?
Almost unilaterally, non-autistic people began describing themselves in terms of their relationships to others– if they were a parent, a spouse, what their career was, where they lived, what their religion is, and what their roles were related to others (sister to a Senator, military brat, pastor’s wife, soccer mom, etc.).
And, almost unilaterally, #Autistic people described themselves as what they loved to do, what their values were, and what they had experienced. Many even said this, having intuited the basis of the theory. Among the answers were, “I am a verb,” or “I am what I love,” or “Who I am is what I do.” Autistics would answer, “Lover of Justice,” or “Dreamer,” or “One who values autonomy.” Some would describe themselves as a “lover of” or “obsessed with” an intense passion, like trains, lichen and fungi, or theoretical physics and black holes.'

I have never had such a loving community. Never have had a community like this online. I would just drift alone in the cyber ocean. It now feels like I am traveling with some of you.
If you have other social networks, please repost to those. I do not use fb, insta, whats, tic, twit, snap or generally anything other than Youtube and this.

Because I overthink whenever I set up a new social media bio and did actually have this problem during an ERG call a few weeks ago:
At a family picnic ~15 years ago, during a break after a rough game of horsehoes, one of my great-uncles starts a conversation with his brothers (2nd gen Americans): "So my grandson came to me the other day and asked, are we Mexican-American? And I said...🤷♂️sure(?)"
This started a conversation where every term that we've used in the last while was listed: Chicano, Latino, just Mexican, Hispanic, Spanish (a New Mexico thing).
What should me and my second cousin be calling ourselves? 4 generations in, barely speak an Spanish, etc. Mexican-American? Chicano (if I'm chicano I'm like the indoor cat of chicanos)? Nuevomexicano, really? I usually just said Hispanic which usually means a few generations in here, but I really don't know outside of that, and I also didn't used to work with any Latine from outside New Mexico to have to worry about it.
A brief detour into "but we're supposed to check white on the census, no?", then finally, as many family conversations go, which cousin's balls to break for being the most Chuppy (Chicano-yuppy) because they golf so much and wear polos for fun.
I tell this story to let you know that I think I'm entering my tio era and it doesn't matter much what I call myself. In any situation where I'm going to identify myself, it's just as likely to be a thing because I am on the lighter side. So any interaction usually ends in one of 2 ways: someone feels seen for who they might be, or someone walks away muttering pinche güero under their breath. I'll take the former even if means the latter.
Here's an interesting survey on what New Mexicans of Spanish Speaking descent (that's a mouthful, right?) I came across last week looking for something else: https://heritagenm.unm.edu/generational-change #latine #nuevomexicano #identity #hispanic #newmexico #latine #nuevomexicano #identity #hispanic #newmexico
Discord username change: A mess changing the identity of individuals

@youid itself is a verifiable credentials generator for the #NetIDTLS protocol.
NetIDTLS (a TLS Client Authentication Protocol Tweak) can offer an additional #Identity #Authenticity protocol sitting alongside “rel=me” — for instance.
But... #nomadic #identity, after all, does not have to be built into the protocol to be practically usable. If we base it on domain ownership and the server handles account creation on the user's domain ( #BringYourOwnDomain ) then we pretty much have it done (still a matter of migrating posts but that's already a small problem then).
And such a thing is supported by e.g. the #takahe project, compatible with mastodon api.
.@NikkiBuschEdit was smart, talented, and strong. I and many other #editors learned from her and enjoyed knowing her. She was an outspoken #advocate of respecting everyone’s #gender #identity. She will be missed. 💔
@mike oooohhhhhh. That reads very similar to the requirements spec in my head for #identity across the #fediverse. The fediverse would be a much more usable, and useful, and diverse, and (in practice) feature-rich, and innovative, and competitive place if everybody implemented something like this! Kudos to you!!
