did a doorknocking shift in the U District and met some cool union organizers & housing activists. we got tenants' rights bootcamps coming up, check it out Seattle folx!
i got off the bus on Aurora & a guy was getting cuffed. i openly start filming. 2 cop cars, 3 cops, and for 20min it looked like he'd get taken in. but they mysteriously released him?
and on the walk home i met some folks dogwalking and their adorable husky jumped on me! <3
a good day
i don't talk about it much but i'm still putting most of my free time into left organizing work.
every year Seattle SocAlt runs the "People's Budget" where we organize around winning more of the public goods that we direly need. this year we drew a big crowd. there's an upcoming vote on the budget that we need people to pack city hall for. if you can come out on a Wednesday morning, we might get some badly needed homeless services/affordable housing in this town.
see you there - come early!
we got some probes! here you see a 60hz wave (from an AC wall wart) on one line, and microcontroller PWM output on another. you can't make it out here, but we could actually see the 8-bit duty cycle varying in realtime
shot with digizoom bc my phone was on a short leash to the charger
this would be so useful to the me that essentially stopped existing on 11/8/2016
so, decades ago, my landlord seems to have had a job with Boeing designing radar jammers for B-52s or smth. i assume the neglected 1978 oscilloscope we found under our balcony was his, anyway.
last weekend, @rowanyote opened it up, cleaned out the dust and cobwebs, and plugged it in. it still works!

on international nonbinary day i seem to be headed to a queer/trans/poc focused electronic music festival to sell some buttons i designed to raise money for socialism
i'm hella on my personal brand.
oh by the way i made this a few weeks back and my socialist comrades are selling t-shirts of it (white or dark pink on black, M/W sizes).
use the design as you like, just credit me if you modify it. and if you want a shirt DM me. they're $15 and all profits go to ending fucking capitalism
did i forget to mention i'm in Phoenix? i'm in Phoenix.
