#ellijaymakerspace — Public Fediverse posts

On this show, I play a song from The Arts and Sciences; I spent one of my best nights out seeing The Arts and Sciences open for the Indigo Girls; I am currently taking a beekeeping certification course; I will be buying two nucs of bees plus lots of gear; I believe your garb should be politically neutral in unrelated public outreach; I made a Mastodon post that got an atypically large response and yet did not enjoy it; the anti-trans talking points of today were popularized by Jeffrey Epstein 15 years ago; I got Github Actions working to build and publish this here Eleventy site; I added search to this here Eleventy site; I enjoy the Vito X Dino podcast but had to protect myself from large episode dumps; is milk violence and is that a serious position? I was and am a fan of Harvey Pekar but my one chance to meet him I chickened out; I used to work rotating shifts in a chemical factory; XMas week was the best work week of the year; I read the Harvey Pekar story "Snow Day" at work in almost the identical situation Harvey was in for the story.

On this show, I play a song from Doctor Deathray; as I was upgrading the capacity of my Synology NAS I discovered I didn't need it; don't enable the trash can on your Time Machine drives on a NAS; I am using my extra capacity to self-host Mastodon; running a one person Mastodon instance is easier than I predicted; I love NTFY for notifications; I hate Apprise for notifications; I bought a Trezor hardware wallet to hold all my weird pockets of crypto; the UX of using crypto for anything sucks; Obsidian starts slow on my Android phone; Quick Draft for Obsidian solves a big problem for me.

In this episode, I play a song by the Axis of Awesome;
my random choice of mastodon.lol had consequences; I sympathize with having one Really Bad Day on your project; trans people just want to live their boring lives; I marched with the trans group in Myrtle Beach on MLK weekend; I am now in the orbit of the Ellijay Makerspace; Darusha Wehm and Andrew Roach sent the lifeboat to me; what if I had multiple personas for Mastodon?; I have a shitload of Fediverse accounts; makerspace silk-screening opens up a lot of possibilities; Cory Doctorow and Scott Edelman discussing Judith Merrill made me think about the one spark plug in a scene; I enjoyed Maverix and Lunatix; I missed a window in buying underground comics; I like scrappy Democrats; don’t criticize people by throwing rural people under bus.
