                <h2>chat</h2>

                <p> the best way to get in touch with me is irc (if i'm not around, i'll see
                    it soon™). i'm <code>ben</code> on <a
                    href="https://libera.chat/">libera.chat</a> and
                    <a href="https://tilde.chat">tilde.chat</a></p>

                <p>i'm also on xmpp as <a href="xmpp:ben@hmm.st">ben@hmm.st</a>.</p>

                <p>if you don't have an xmpp account, you can register one on my <a
                    href="https://hmm.st">server</a>. it runs on a thinkpad in my
                    living room!</p>

                <h2>email</h2>

                <p>i have too many email addresses (eg <code>*@bhh.sh</code>), but i
                    mainly use <a href="mailto:ben@tilde.team" rel="me"
                    >ben@tilde.team</a> or <a href="mailto:mail@benharr.is" rel="me"
                    >mail@benharr.is</a>. if you use gpg, make sure to use my tilde.team
                    address. here's <a href="/benharri.asc">my pubkey</a>.</p>

                <h2>social media?</h2>

                <p>i'm on <a href="https://twitter.com/nebsirrah" rel="me">twitter</a>
                    and <a href="https://tilde.zone/@ben" rel="me">mastodon</a>, but i
                    try not to check them all that much.</p>
