So I missed the #introduction thing before, so I really should do it now that this is live.
Hi, I'm Mike. I'm a dad, a husband, an enormous soccer nerd, and very very Canadian.
I've been working on Mozilla projects since 2003 and an employee since 2005. I built the original Firefox and Services engineering teams from scratch, then did some tours in BD and Product to learn new things. Lately I've been working on building out our #Fediverse effort with a crew of smart folks.
Keyboardio doesn't have a corporate fediverse account yet, so I'm posting this from my personal account:
We're fine, but, uh, our bank failed this morning.
We're using that as a pretext to hold a giant 72 hour sale on keyboards, caps, switches, & accessories.
Use discount code BANKRUN for 20% off everything we sell at https://shop.keyboard.io.
That includes the Model 100, Atreus, keycaps, and switches.
I support all those things.
Hi I have recently joined. Myself and my Son are both autistic. I have a keen interest in disability rights and politics. I also do a little running and yoga to calm my mind and find some peace. #Introductions
A lucky four-leaf clover today in hopes that the day will prove fruitful. I'm heading out to a local St. Patrick's Day celebration with some of my art and greeting cards to see if I can make a few dollars. Unfortunately, art supplies just keep getting more and more expensive.

What I find ridiculous about all this is that they're supporting fascists in part because they're terrified someone's going to take their guns. But as soon as they can, the Republicans will do it, because fascists don't want a populace that can fight back.
Suspending the tracking ofπ« & ammo purchases is alarming. Itβs bc:π©Έstatesβ #DeathCult lawmakers have responded with legislation thatβd prohibit or limit banks from using the IOSβ codes for GUN SALES. Fox lists the states that are intro. leg.: TX/FL/MS/OK/WV/WY. McCarthy tweeted: the tracking should be ended permanently: Visa, Mastercard, Discover pause work on code thatβd track gun purchases:
I found out that's a myth. When this gay atheist stepped into a church for the first time in decades, I didn't burst into flames. I just got seated between my mother-in-law and her ex-husband she'd had an ugly divorce from.
Turns out god is real, and he's got an evil sense of humor.
Almost three years to the day after officers fatally shot Breonna Taylor during a no-knock raid, the Department of Justice has released its report showing local law enforcementβs abusive and discriminatory practices have gone far beyond what made headlines.
My latest for The Mary Sue:
Desantis is not a good retail politician. Itβs going to be fun watching this sort of stuff happen to him over the next year. #desantis #gop #politics #trump #uspolitics #elections
You could still be fun. Just stop living as a Good Example, and start living as a Cautionary Tale.
The possibility of knowing what sexual shenanigans she got up to at Fox makes me a little queasy.
