it seems like people are looking for my twitter account.

@deathtokoalas on twitter is NOT me. that person appears to be into anime, online rpgs and defending the fascist state of israel. i'm not interested in any of those things. i'd like to see a one state solution, but under the auspices of a democratic, secular "israel" that does not have religious or nationalist concepts written into it's constitution. i'd also like to see some land redistribution, but i recognize that this is a very delicate process. if you were to sit me down and really have me analyze it, i'd have to come to the conclusion that the only way to "set things right" is to temporarily abolish the state and have it run by an international body like the un for a period of 50 years or something, then have it transferred to a secular, pluralist governing body.

i simply don't use twitter. however, for the sake of clarifying the situation, i'll point you to this sarcastic profile as the only twitter profile that i've ever set up.

i know that deathtokoalas comes off as a unique marker, but it seems like it isn't. as far as i can tell, this other person stole my name, but i can't prove that.

that brings up another point, though. the handle i'm using there is @dgkfgjklgjkgjka. i'm all over the internet with variations of this. it was chosen to be impossible to search for, as it's picked uniquely each time, but easy to identify when it's found.

i'm very open about my politics. if you see some right-wing ranting under a similar moniker, and it's not sarcastic, it's not me. but if you see variations of the sort with a lower case d, a random string of mashed characters of no fixed length and a lower class a such as...

dfdgKDT789rft8efyYKa
dBJUR8fduKDE7IekdcGJKFHYJO5a
dDTdkGDITKDtktYa

etc

then it's probably me.

"impossible" is an exaggeration. but searching all possible combinations is time consuming. it requires some scripting, at least.

there's lots of smart ways to circumvent the fuckers, if you know a little about the technology they use....

obviously, i don't want it to be hard to find my youtube account.

but the fact that deathtokoala starts with a d and ends with an a is no coincidence:)

i am somewhat of a bond villain.

it doesn't matter any more, i don't use the technique.

(you'll note that before you can script the trawl, you need to figure out the trick, and i don't get the impression anybody even got that far)

i mean sum (35 C i), 3<i<20 is a very big number.
hectic week, but serious work tonight. could be quite a bit of it, actually, by the end of the weekend. i'll need to pause to hit a punk show tomorrow, but i otherwise have nothing in front of me the next few days except the completion of some remixes...
