Today's progress on reviving the 3d printer was mixed. Firmware is compiling (not sure I have the right display tho) and most of the wiring (though I want ferrules for the high current stuff) so with any luck I'll be back to several days ago where I can at least power it on and get basic movement

"Democrats were searching for a leader. They found something better: a coalition."

The day was going great until the USB plug broke off in the printer motherboard connector. I guess tomorrow we get to sort out the wiring on the new board (new rev so of course it's different). Le sigh

after a long hiatus I'm working on the 3D printer again* (swapped to Microswiss extruder and up to date FW) and I finally have it homing properly. Next up is sporting all the mechanical dimensions. At this rate I'll be printing by December *if I don't work on the printer Kat will make me write

I am a kidney donor, and I feel it’s my duty to inform you of this crucial step.

The Reichtag is doing a wonderful job burying the Epstein files.

To be clear: LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government. The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency. This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Most "classics" are boring as fuck to a modern reader in no small part because the context of the story is not understood by them and so many of the allusions and "inside jokes" known to then-contemporary readers have been lost in time and in translation

Chicago not letting Portland have all the fun 🐧

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment. Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

Whether it’s Republican politicians joking about the murder of Melissa Hortman or Democratic politicians expressing their condolences after the murder of Charlie Kirk, both parties have a extreme rhetoric problem.

Meanwhile 3 teens were shot in a Denver school today. I had to search for it specifically it was buried so far below the fold. apnews.com/article/colo...

Did we find life on Mars??? Well, no, but we did find maybe the best potential evidence yet. Let’s break it down 🧪🔭 Much like a toddler on a hike, the Perseverance rover has been collecting samples of interesting rocks it finds around the Martian desert. (1/n)

LRT: I've been a full-time, self-employed cartoonist for 18 years and I make about as much as a school teacher with no benefits and way higher taxes. I'm considered a *success* in this industry, think about that. 99% of the artists you run into are a paycheck away from poverty, give us a break.

The timing! I’m recently torn between watching the birdcage with my kids vs having to explain to them that some people thought being gay wasn’t acceptable. They live in such a nice liberal bubble but also it’s such a great movie.

I could help with some #publishing basic #artwork for a novella I've #written. It's a *paying gig* but I can't afford anything fancy for a #book that probably won't have any meaningful sales. Something super basic for a paperback would also be on the table

Publishing soon; mostly need some cover art (especially if I'm going to do paperback). In the meantime here's a free copy. #AmWriting #MyWork follandfamily.com/zod-the-elec...

"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."
