So many dudes at protests are showing up with big titties it’s going to replace the frog

space is awesome

First threaded cap project and it works! Hope the next print comes out as well because it would be nice to have a few more.

While I wait to get sandpaper for the previous AA battery holder, another battery holder! This one is to carry some button cell batteries while traveling. The PETG was more fickle with this 3D print, about six failed modifications but think this might be good enough to completion.

Back when I lived off commission based pay, clients trust was slow but hands down wins in the long run. Yes shiny distractions and showboating work upfront but flop shortly after. Good business is being a decent person and some of my peers didn’t understand how I had a consistent 80% retention.

Five television programs to get to know me: Connections (Burke 1978) Andor Doctor Who (4th/5th doctors mostly) Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1981) Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom (shout out H4zy) #6 bonus: Cosmos (Sagan 1980)

Ok this is just cute

In four or five years we’re going to see hair raising reports of years long dwell times for APTs on sensitive U.S. networks and everyone will say how did this happen

TIL disposable batteries fit perfectly however rechargeable ones are so snug they’ll need a vice like grip to get it out. Time to find some sand paper.

Five television programs to get to know me: M*A*S*H Quantum Leap X-Files Battlestar Galactica (yes both, but mostly the second) Firefly

Five television programs to get to know me: -Star Trek / TNG -MASH -Great British Baking Show -British murder shows like Broadchurch & Shetland -Top Chef

Five television programs to get to know me: Andor Penny Dreadful What We Do In The Shadows Absolutely Fabulous Mutual of Omaha Wild Kingdom

Five television programs to get to know me: Doctor Who Fargo Taskmaster Andor Animaniacs

Wouldn't Artemis II be more of a satellite office?

AA battery holder in progress It’s not great but for a first 3D print of this file, it will do! It’s clear PETG filament and think it could have gone a tad hotter to look more transparent but this was more for function anyway.

Of COURSE he is but also these grown women were eating it up being on the “winning” racist, misogynistic, evil pedo team! mmm mmmMMM! *mmm nom nom nom*

*ahem* If there can be remote management to a spaceship, then there’s nothing wrong with tech workers being remote.

You know what? I really don’t give a fuck what they think, and the only people who do are misogynists.

*grumble*

Two brilliant civil rights lawyers - one Asian American; one Black American. Both women. @aclu.org’s Cecellia Wang & @legaldefensefund.bsky.social’s @janainelson.bsky.social. They argued two of the most consequential cases in SCOTUS this year. This embrace is one of my favorite moments of the day.

Sometimes being “difficult” just means you refused to stay quiet. Taking up space, pushing back, and being labeled a #NastyWoman means you’re doing something right. 🎧 Don't miss Sarah Myhre on the podcast this week. https://ow.ly/tLSK50YzVLf#NastyWoman#WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM

A thoughtless comment from a professor nearly knocks Alison Williams off her path in chemistry. This week’s Best Of Story Collider episode is about what happens when someone else’s bias tries to define your future. 🎧 https://ow.ly/O5I950YzVzH #WomenInScience #DiversityInSTEM

Up way too early. Current: 💜💜💜💛💛 Oooh, can do that with mushrooms too: 🍄🍄🍄🍄‍🟫🍄‍🟫 Please coffee, let’s make it through the day with caffeine zen. Otherwise spicy might break containment. Who was it that used emoji hearts for a life meter recently? Was it @jrodr87.bsky.social?

Love when a journalist and NPR host tells it like it is. This, following last night’s “Presidential Address”.

Hello.

Amazon's cloud business in Bahrain damaged in Iran strike, FT reports reut.rs/4c1Pkes

We need to ramp up the Darwin awards, maybe take some warning labels off products.

Set up a new area for my trees that should get better sun through the day #bonsai

Modern life (Capitalism) isn't designed for families. No wonder people are having less and less kids. I've had one and that's probably enough.

Tonight's full moon rising behind the Sydney Harbour Bridge. I dragged my telescope down to Birchgrove earlier to capture the moonrise of the so-called "pink" moon. Skywatcher Esprit 80, 2x Powermate extender, Pentax K-5 DSLR. Single exposure 1/180th sec at ISO 1100. 🔭 #astrophotography #artemis

Look, I am most assuredly a Democratic Socialist but I understand that if, in Pharaonic Egypt, you were entitled to a gigantic Pringle, you should also have a pair of lions to protect said chippy.

Reading about the shocking jankyness of the Claude source code leak and Anthropic must be like

No, fuck you. You don’t get to suddenly decide that copyright matters when folks suddenly have access to the source code of your spicy autocomplete due to your own incompetence.

Watching something that’s probably a better use of my time TBH

🌱Spring breaking out all over!🌱

🌱 Wildflower Wednesday includes MealyCup Sage Salvia farinacea, Adenium obesum AKA Desert Rose🌹Succulent with trademark bulbous stem, which has fluid you wash off hands, called a Caudex. This one is fighting back rusted Roots,🫚 due to non-potting, *after* surviving Nov2025 hailstorm. Zone9B ❇️ ALT 🌵

You all, I just rsvp’d to a wedding this summer and it doesn’t go with my mostly black dress code.

I read them so you didn’t have to CW - abuse EIGHTY THREE Customs Border “Protection” and ICE officers convicted. Estimate 90% of them are due to child sexual assault. The others were rape of women or child pornography. Dismantle this broken cesspool of morally rancid parasites.

This is the most metal lawyering move. The ACLU puts up a brilliant American lawyer, Cecillia Wang, to argue the case to the court & subtly demonstrates that, were they to rule against birthright citizenship, the US would be deprived of any future Cecillia Wangs. Literal 'come at me, bro' energy.

Go ACLU!!

Also:

As another example: my mother's family is Chinese. Only my father's white family immigrated to the US. My mother's family immigrated to the Kingdom of Hawai'i, which was annexed by the United States.

As an example: the US acquired large amounts of territory in the Mexican-American war. There are people in the Southwest of the US whose ancestors absolutely never immigrated to the US who are being targeted now as "immigrants" and "not from here" based on the way they look.

Some of my zen feeds are gone/closed, among them were the Flowers and Positivity feeds. Thankfully gardening and science are doing well! Waiting for the creator content to override the marketing in the 3D print feed. Think I’ll need to rely more on hashtag searches for now #bloomscroll #3dPrinting

In 2023, the Microbiota Vault Initiative (MVI) collected its first specimens, which are now stored at the University of Zurich. The MVI aims to stockpile backups of vital microbe species, among them bacteria, viruses, archaea, protists, and fungi. Read more: cen.acs.org/biological-c... #chemsky 🧪
