Another day, another Seattle sunset! With a surprise bonus! Definitely need to invest in a camera outside of my phone as I know I could do better with literally any physical zoom lens. Know anyone looking for a Technical Project Manager? Always open to new opportunities and making new connections!

Give a small update on the fundraiser, it was a partial success and we were able to move in! Just got lots of bills to pay after the fact and it's rough but so far we're making it. Anyway here's a picture I took yesterday of the sunset and the ferry #seattle #photography #WSDOT

In between it all I took this nice picture in #bremerton

Need Urgent Help! We managed to find a place! Now we need $4423 to move in by Wednesday. We've got $1300 so far and we really appreciate it, but we gotta keep going! Link:

Hey everyone, I set up a fundraiser to help us get our housing situation figured out. Anything and everything helps! While our goal is $2k, even $1 helps. We really tried everything to make it work so Thank you to anyone that feels so obliged as to provide anything.

Posting to the Internet can be difficult at times, especially when in need. So, here I go I guess.

One of my favorites, Thank you again for this wonderful call to action! We must ALL be aware of the way we interact with information & AI, as well as helping those who don't know how to do that yet. So check out it out! Original post:

A little nostr lesson, can anyone help me test my zaps on here? Just want to make sure I got my Alby setup going proper this time. Is there like, zap etiquette or specific ways of doing it, or is it the lastest cash app/venmo using Bitcoin? Oh and, zaps being send money and boost being repost is an interesting design choice but I can't blame em. Also, Do we hashtag here and if so, which vibe? To be honest, anyone got a beginners guide to nostr or we all just hanging onto this bandwagon while it's still speeding? After that I'll shut up for a bit. Thanks for the yap. #boost #zap #zaps #bitcoin #nostr #yap #alby #hashtags?

Congratulations @bad-example.com! An open Bluesky helps the open ATmosphere grow, and helps the open source cause as a whole. So excited to see this all lining up! Original post:

This is such an important thread, it's entirely the reason I'm working to meld their Fairness testing into curriculum at my college. Even outside of that, it's Very important to be aware of bias when writing anything that affects people. Original post:

#LFNW25 was a supurb event, from learning Fairness Testing to The geology of Open Source, Linux Security and nix-bitcoin, to Free Software and Framework toys. I enjoyed every bit & am stoked for the future! Specifically I want to thank @Hazel Weakly and @Autumn Nash on Bluesky for some great talks!

So many projects right now, between Salesforce, College, and my own personal endeavors. Honestly hoping at least one of them can help network me a career continuing the tech I enjoy. Anyway, Heading to #LinuxFest tomorrow! Lots of exciting things to learn and discuss with #linux heads alike.

So while trying to figure out social media, I found @npub14p3a...nygs and it's allowed me to post across three of the latest medias as well as engage! Follow me or just check out what I post on all three. Jack-of-all trades who believes all people deserve basic respect! #openvibe #abandonMETA

Sow & Grow went wonderful! It was amazing seeing so many caring people who want to grow all sorts of plants in our community! While Sow & Grow is done for the day, our lovey restaurant partners are still serving while supplies last! Even when they aren't serving Co-op goods, these restaurants are wonderful. #kitsap #community #local #bremerton #food View quoted note →

Today is the day! From 10am to 2pm we will be in Downtown Bremerton, just across from Seattle, providing all sorts of wonderful goodies for our 3rd annual Sow & Grow event! Come check it out, grab some free stuff and enter the raffle! #bremerton #plants #farms #local #kitsap

Thx Jane for posting on Bluesky What ultimately sucks the most is that the big 4 phone carriers are ALL here. So for as long as you use a cell phone within the US, you're supporting this bullshit. It's awful and highlights one of the many reasons the oligarchy needs toppled. Origina:
