So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

For #BlackHistoryMonth, let's remember Bayard Rustin.
The civil rights leader, when he is remembered at all these days, is remembered for brilliantly organizing the 1963 March on Washington.
Not everyone appreciated his pioneering approach to intersectionality - and as a gay man, he was sometimes seen as a liability.
His biographer makes a case for Rustin as the signature radical voice during the 20th century

Just got an amazing gift from @joqatana: A suncatcher made with one of my late friend #DavidCrosby's guitar strings. Thank you, Jo, I deeply appreciate it. π #music
Me: I only *look* like I have my shit together because I set reminders for everything with my phone
Them: None of us thought you had your shit together
Fever dreams are awesome if you like reliving the 3-legged race from 5th grade field day, but naked.

I work remote, so I spend most of my workdays in pajamas because most of our zoom meetings are just audio, but every so often I will put on a nice outfit and do my hair and makeup even if itβs not a video meeting just because I want to be the only person to turn on their camera looking totes business profesh so it will then make all of my coworkers panic and scramble to make themselves look presentable before turning on their own cameras.
Happy Birthday, Penny!
Today, this princess turned 5 years old. We rescued her when she was 8 months old and she has been an amazing addition to our family.

Today the House GOP will "celebrate" #Blackhistorymonth by removing Rep Ilhan Omar from House Foreign Affairs committee. She is the only Black woman on the committee--plus she's Muslim + an immigrant. This is what white supremacy looks like.

Mindfulness, because who doesnβt want to learn theyβve been breathing wrong all these years?
@anirvan What fascists really hope immigrant communities will never understand is that the immigrant experience is made possible by the blood of Black people.
Naturalization classes and documents that are in languages that aren't English? A protection afforded by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This is why we don't have an official language. You're welcome, cousins.
#BlackHistory is your history, too.
I just realised I forgot to do my #introduction here! I'm a long time #ActivityPub user with @nextcloud, but only started playing with #PixelFed and #Mastodon last year, when I decided to begin deactivating, and stop consuming ALL corporate social media, and as much from #BigTech as possible. All power to the people!
I'm also a #musician - #drums, #guitar, #bass, #tenorSax. I've played in dozens of bands over the last 25 years but am now retired as "a grumpy #soundtech, but I ain't grumpy!
