Some of us take it to our hearts to remember one of the most influential hacktivists <3

For that matter, I'd like to share a documentary about him: https://archive.org/details/TheInternetsOwnBoyTheStoryOfAaronSwartz

You can also get to know his legacy by reading the short Guerrilla Open Access Manifesto, available here: https://openlibrary.org/books/OL25421460M/Guerilla_Open_Access_Manifesto

he had been really sad for quite some time. It was a special kind of sad that doesn’t go away with a tight hug from mom, so it was especially hard to deal with.

As someone with depression, that has to be the cringiest way to describe depression.

How would you have described depression to someone who is actually 5 years old…?

Please describe depression. And please ELI5.

5 year olds are pretty cringe

This is why I hate ELI5 for a serious subject like this.
