KatiWinter and snow... <br>
Just read an article about identity thiefs. My sense of <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/humour?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#humour</a> says: better give them identity they sure don't want 😅😂 I was about to remove <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Instagram?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Instagram</a> because it's constant catfishing. Last person was "Ricky Gervais", jep, sure... In the end it's better not to believe anything in social media until you have met the person. Last two new connections are real because I met them. But anyways: be <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/weird?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#weird</a> enough and no-one will sure not want your social media identity 😅 <br>
