He/Him, wobbly, green-collar grunt in the Boston area looking to find people to live and work in community with. Talk to me about community building and your hobby/craft you dump your climate/collapse anxieties into! Mine are bicycle maintenance and cargo transport, visible mending, (very amateur) hacking and tech liberation, TTRPGs, and when I have the money to develop film, photography. I really hope we can build together.

@polymerwitch I made a challenge of making image descriptions sound like a D&D game.

Hi, I guess a new #introduction seeing as I am dusting this off during the great migration. Film is expensive, so likely not gonna be as photo focused as I was previously and probably ought to find an instance that makes more sense, but I am gonna wait for the dust to settle before I figure all that out. In the meantime, looking to chat with folks about sustainability, cooperative living, tech liberation for the common folk, and doing all that by bike in the Boston area. Say hi!

Holy shit it's #mastodonmonday and, well... it's hard to actually think about posting anything in my current oeuvre considering recent events. The country is going to hell in a hand basket and I'm burning #film on... I don't know. So much for nuanced. Have a #photo from the one project I attempted so far, and failed miserably at due to advancing errors: This is me posting up outside a polling station to interview voters, but sadly the rest of the roll got horribly chewed up. #photography

the five rolls of #film I've been waiting on just got uploaded... just in time to squeak in a last minute #MastodonMondays post. There's a lot to go through, and I'll definitely have a more nuanced post next week, but until then, have this array of satellite dishes. #filmphotography #kodakgold200 #expired #photography #photo #35mm #pentaxmx

Yo hey wassup I'm waiting on a bunch of rolls of film to get back from the lab, so have some detail shots of a photo that just didn't pan out how I wanted. This was early days of the pandemic, and my first roll in the #pentaxmx and I really wanted a shot with the sign on the front of the bus reading "FACE COVERING REQUIRED," but I was foiled by the glare. #fujisuperiaxtra400 #photography #photos #filmphotograpy #analogphotography #mastodonmonday #MastodonMondays

@leftistmemes And that still leaves plenty of money for some film.

I guess you can consider the thread my first #mastodonmonday post. It really hits at what I want out of a social network anyway. I want to talk about what needs to be fixed instead of just peering into the best parts of everyone else's lives. I know it seems bleak, but in my heart it's pure optimism. If we can get people talking about what's broken we can begin seriously talking about how to fix it. I hope we still can. I need to believe we still can. Thanks for reading through. #finalframe

I don't know what the answer is. I know I'll keep going to work, because the wolf is always at the door. I hope I'll get to help build the urban farms I've always wanted, but I know if I do they'll be far outweighed by the all the waste and pollution I've generated in the construction projects I've participated in to help keep the lights on so someday we can build that farm... But I hope that if enough of us stop and talk about this treadmill, maybe collectively we can get off. #lomo400
