Submitting that form will check the subject URL for an indieauth-metadata endpoint that advertises a ticket_endpoint.

I think this should work fine because it already handles creating an opaque string that is valid for a short period of time (5 minutes). The module also ensures these can only be used once and logs key information for each request like client_id (source code). I need to run some tests to ensure tickets can\u2019t be used as authorization codes and I might need to add some metadata to differentiate the two in the admin area.\n\nFeel free to try to send a ticket to my staging site and ping me in IndieWeb dev chat.

Belonging and community

        "text": "I love the indieweb carnival. Every month, a new blogger hosts a topic on their website, and everyone else is invited to post about it on theirs. Webmentions link it all together, allowing anyone to browse through all the different points of view and modes of expression. It\u2019s lovely.This month\u2019s IndieWeb Carnival topic is about community and belonging, so here are some thoughts about that.I\u2019ve been working with a new therapist who specializes in trauma, after realizing that I wasn\u2019t doing well at processing my mother\u2019s death and the decade leading up to it. My parents had moved to California a decade prior to that in order to look after my Oma (grandmother). When my mother\u2019s condition progressed to the point that she needed oxygen, my sister and I both moved continents to be closer to her. She had a double lung transplant that gave us all lots of extra time \u2014 in fact, more time than these sorts of transplant recipients get on average \u2014 but this is one of the most invasive surgeries you can do, and there were complications from the drugs, the surgery itself, the underlying condition. It was incredibly hard on her. In turn, it was hard on all of us in a way that\u2019s been difficult to process. I realized lately, for example, that I\u2019ve been having auditory flashbacks. I\u2019m really hoping a specialized therapist will help.Part of therapy is intake: giving your therapist the lowdown on who you are as a person and your general context. We\u2019ve been going through my childhood; she asked for me to discuss any particular life events of themes that stuck in my mind.A subset of the things that came to mind for me included:An entire factory floor of Albanian seamstresses lining up to pinch my cheeks while my parents looked on helplessly, unwilling to cause an international incident (this really happened)\nLiving in Vienna as a seven-year-old and almost becoming fluent in German until the Chernobyl nuclear reactor melted down in Ukraine and we moved back to Britain because my parents were worried about the fallout\nBeing a borderline third culture kid: growing up in Britain to American and Dutch / Indonesian / Swiss parents with extended stays in Austria and North Carolina\nLiving with the generational aftermath of concentration camp survival (my dad is one of the youngest survivors of Japanese-run camps in Indonesia)\nA few of these things made it difficult to connect to people when I was growing up. The thing about third culture kids is that they often don\u2019t get the implicit cultural references that everyone else seems to just know: the result is that I often felt like there must be some kind of hidden password that everyone else was in on that had never been shared with me. At the same time, I\u2019d picked up on a generational anxiety that I didn\u2019t even know existed, which made it hard for people to connect with me. Even now, as an adult, it\u2019s hard for anyone who hasn\u2019t helped care for a terminally ill loved one to really understand where I\u2019m at as a person. Quite often, I don\u2019t even know myself.I sometimes wonder if religion would have provided me with a stronger through-line of community, but I always remind myself that then I would have needed to believe in one. I\u2019m pleased for people who do have a sense of belief that adds to their life. Even after a childhood of Church of England schooling (and perhaps a little bit because of it) I can\u2019t bring myself to believe in any kind of higher power.I don\u2019t have the same questions about nationalism (or its cousin patriotism, which I believe sits on the same spectrum). I think putting so much identity into a place that you carry a sense of superiority over other places is so archaic, so unbelievably stupid, that I can\u2019t bring myself to entertain it. There is no greatest country in the world, or greatest state, or greatest town. We\u2019re all just people, and these borders are artificial divisions that serve to separate us.Case in point: one of the biggest rug pulls of my adult life was Brexit. When I moved to the US to help care for my mother, my intention was always to move back to the UK. Five years into this journey, Britain reminded me that I didn\u2019t really belong there: I was a European citizen, not a real British person, and I no longer had the legal right to return as anything more than a tourist. I already felt like I ripped my life apart (albeit for good reasons), and this came as a huge blow. I was born with American citizenship and can live here forever, but it\u2019s not like I feel like I belong here. There\u2019s a cognitive overhead to living in a country you didn\u2019t grow up in; an ongoing tension, and a sense of loss that never really goes away. Not anything close to the palpable loss that would come a few years later, but enough to tug at your soul.If there isn\u2019t a place where I feel belonging, there are, at least, people. One of the important facets of family (or at least, a close one, which I\u2019m grateful to have) is that you have shared cultural touchpoints, and shared context. I\u2019ve said before that family is my nationality and my religion, having no use for the traditional versions of either of those things. It\u2019s my primary community, too.But there are others. When I first connected to the internet, back in the mid-nineties, newsgroups occupied the space that social media and web forums take up now. Not long before, someone had created one specifically for British teenagers; I logged on with my dial-up Demon Internet account, started lurking, and then eventually dove in.There was something freeing about only being able to express myself in text, not least because I\u2019ve always had a very hard relationship with my own physicality. I\u2019m big, and was big early; I felt like the Incredible Hulk. There were hardly any mirrors in our house, and I\u2019d catch myself in the full-length ones in department stores and recoil. (I still do.) On the newsgroup, I didn\u2019t have to worry about any of that. I could just be me, without being bogged down by my pesky corporeal presence. Everyone else who posted there was kind of awkward in similar ways to me, too; the missed cultural understanding that I felt so profoundly in real life didn\u2019t seem to matter there at all.Eventually, we all met up in real life, and these people who I\u2019d met through words became lifelong friends. I hosted parties at my house and traveled around the country to visit other peoples\u2019. It was an experience I still strive to recreate; it\u2019s what informed the communities I created later on, although I later learned it wasn\u2019t as completely safe as I thought at the time.As an adult, my communities have been practice-based: indieweb, for example, or the community of Matter alumni. I\u2019m pleased to say I\u2019ve made lifelong friends from these places: people who mean the world to me. These are people who I do have a sense of belonging with, and I\u2019m grateful for it. And, of course, I have a new family of my own, which carries its own sense of belonging. (I\u2019m writing this as my sick child sleeps his way through a long nap; when he wakes up, I will hug him tight.)These days, I see my lack of geographic rootedness as a superpower. Sure, I don\u2019t really feel like I belong anywhere, but that also means I can be anywhere. There\u2019s no real tether to one particular place; no need to be in one location forever. And the benefit of being a permanent outsider is that I always have an outsider\u2019s perspective: I tend to see things in a different way to the people around me. Sometimes that turns out to be valuable; sometimes it brings a little scorn. At least it\u2019s something different.",

At least, I think it is, my undecidedness the result of spending much of my time there sat inside Orpheum for border:none and Tollwerk for IndieWebCamp.Apart from Friday, when I took myself to the DB Museum, the few chances I got to see the city were in the dark.
