Folks, thanks to your support I'm just a few components away from being able to set up a new computer, a necessary tool that will let me stream more easily and improve my tools for illustration. Thank you! The remaining parts are on my Throne #wishlist below: http://buff.ly/3SWGS7B
Thank you all. Seriously, this means so much to me.

The alien fleet appeared suddenly and entered Earth's orbit. A message was broadcast, in thousands of languages

"Greetings! We are the Interstellar Mobile Library. We have 4096 ships, please suggest landing sites for all."

"Yes, of course it is free, and for all people."

"Why? We are a library."

Yesterday, I was panicking because I thought I would never get my tools back.

This weekend, I get to panic because OH SHIT NOW I HAVE TO CLEAN MY LAB ROOM BECAUSE MY TOOLS ARE COMING BACK.

Sincerely, truly, gratefully, and happily, I say to you all--

thank you.

I'm so unbelievably close-- just $375 to go (by my count)! I'm hoping that this one last push will get me across the finish line! My tools, and my independence, are very much within reach! Thank you for helping so far, let's end this! https://ko-fi.com/phoebezeitler/goal?g=54

This is officially it: if I can raise $550 today I will be able to pay off the movers in full and have my tools back in as soon as a week or two. Please donate if you can-- this really is critical!

This is the final push for me to get my gear back, so that I can return to being self-sufficient and can help others in need. I'm so close to being done, to being back to where I started after the disastrous Canada escape. Please help me if you can. https://ko-fi.com/phoebezeitler/goal?g=54
Hey European retro computing tootfolk: I'm curious about the BBS culture in the Old World in the 80s and early 90s. I know there were a lot of in-person events by virtue of places being closer together, but was there a big modem-access scene back in the day? What did you dial in between swap parties?
