Isn’t the most important rule of opsec, “don’t post comments about your opsec, even if you totally believe you are ‘safe’”?

That's true. But Mirimir is a special case for me, because his role is sharing about OPSEC. And for what it's worth, Mirimir plays things quite safely. An adversary would need to work out Tor connections through other VPN chains to find anything I really care about. And even then, I'm totally white-hat, so hey.
