I have diverse interests such as constructed languages, new astronomical symbols, puzzles, living in the future, and ceremonial magic.

@WeirderAdmin I just found out that my friends at mastodon.social can see my posts - I thought that wasn’t possible with defederation?

On a lark I got this #comic out of the library, but I am really enjoying it. SPARX by Wren McDonald. The main character is a grumpy #hacker who has to face up against a megacorp. The art is lovely - originally designed for risograph. I think. I did not expect a gritty #cyberpunk story when I picked it up!

This week I got interested in that old Stan Rogers (really Archie Fisher) song, "The Witch of the Westmorland".

Turns out there's quite a bit I didn't know.

And the misty brakefern way

I’ve just spent 900 hours posting about these cards in various places, Mastodon you’re my final stop. People who do social media for a job are made of stronger stuff than I am.

This is my 1st tarot deck, Everybody’s Tarot, which sold out. 2nd edition is due with me in a week or so. Designed to be accessible and intuitive. Like your Woo to be bright? Here you go. 💚 Link in bio.

Since we (or at least I) don't want to turn the fediverse into a rage machine, this also needs to be noted.

IBM apologizes for firing transgender pioneer Lynn Conway

Lynn Conway's brilliant contributions to computer science didn't stop IBM from firing her during her gender transition. Now it has apologized.

Let's test the reach of #Mastodon ... 😎

I'm looking for an extremely rare 1/48 scale #modelkit #plasticmodel of the #Lockheed #XST aka the #HaveBlue project (development proof of concept for the later F-117A Nighthawk).

It is a #vacuform kit made by #Maintrack / #ProjectX under model number #PX401 and looks like this... 😊 (or the #Attic equivalent)
Any tips regarding where I can still get one (or a boost) would be highly appreciated!

Spent the afternoon with a couple of friends solving _Adrift_, a new puzzle dossier from PostCurious.

https://www.getpostcurious.com/adrift

Fun! It's short -- we got through the whole thing in about three hours. Looked at hints on one puzzle (there were some allegorical poetic clues that we misread somehow and so the puzzle didn't come together). Everything else was satisfying.

High production values on the fiddly bits as usual.

Adrift is a puzzletale told through poems, illustrations, and physical artifacts, in which players will take on the role of a dream expert interpreting the significance of subconscious messages communicated by ethereal beings.
