Time to be a menace on a new platform.

This account prioritizes, focuses on and supports femmes, queers, BIPOC, disabled, poor and other marginalized, usually nearly invisible folks in "tech" (bleh that term).

And enacts social equity by ignoring and deprioritizing cis white men

Yes really

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

And this is why the corporate class shut down Teen Vogue.
WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

Gen Z women aren't playing around.

To this day I get far more consistent, quick, local, loving connection through Facebook then any other platform.

Also, it's 95% women responding every time.

Related, it's my birthday. I posted there instead of here for good reason.

I think this should be taken into consideration 🤷‍♀️.

Building stuff in my brain I was like "wait, there's gotta be an inline wireless on/off switch I could use for LED builds"and voila. Haven't seen this magic simple thing before personally.

For me USB is siiiick but the concept comes in many voltages.

Welp. I've been really holding my own with my mental health for about 9 months now. I feel more stable than I have my entire life. Aggressively living and loving and fighting with care and sustainability for others and myself in insane times.

Did something in honor of the No Kings protests today.

Go to lightgraffiti.club to find the full tutorial for a DIY light graffiti projector out of hardware store parts.

If you build one I'll answer questions and send you lasercut stencils.

That is all.

Alrighty babes. It is the last hour to pull in ✨ the last 17%✨ of the fundraiser for my all femme & queer founded and run electronics camp.

I just found out that my stepdad is in the hospital and it's terminal. He is my last remaining parent. I have to get there fast and be helpful 😮‍💨.

There's no new fundraiser, the one for my camp works for this (& camp is still on).

The last Battery Buddy is our Coin Cell Power board! This one is used to replace a coin cell battery on boards that have side-insert-style holders, and it has convenient PH conns and a little cable that allows you to daisy-chain them.

Not to be too intense about it (I will).

But suddenly I can't stop feeling the fact that I haven't cried in someone's arms for four years.

And I haven't called a parent (there aren't any to call).

I know it's true for the collective too. It's fucking lonely out there.
