Hello, I'm Drew. I make mediocre things in bash and talk about free software stuff on videos and podcasts sometimes.

I'm interested in the human, amateur & home-made side of life. Making and sharing things is *goooood*.

The people who are here now, who weren't here a couple of weeks ago, are going through the process of either [this is different] -> [I don't like it] -> [leave], OR [this is different] -> [maybe I do like it] -> [stay]. Only a very few are going [this is different] -> [I don't like it] -> [stay]. If twitter suddenly goes down and doesn't come back up, *thousands* of folk who should be in the first group will find themselves in the third group, and the third group destroys communities.
Now that's engagement.

Here are some silly spoopy designs I was playing around with before Halloween. Definitely going to do more of these, they're so much fun to doodle. ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’š

"The nightclub has a new brash owner, and the dancefloor has emptied. People are pouring in to the quiet houseparty around the corner, cocktails still in hand, demanding that the music be turned up, walking mud into the carpet, and yelling over the top of the quiet conversation.

All of us lost something this week. It's ok to mourn it."
