Like the 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins, only with hobbies. I like drawing, writing, woodworking, math, chemistry, physics, psychology, mycology, linguistics and languages (Spanish, French and English). Fountain pens are cool. Fascism is not. I've made guitars from scratch. I also enjoy playing and writing music. It would take another 200 years to try half the things that interest me. Former newest interest: software defined radio.Newest: Acrylic painting on upcycled food boxes.ADHD?

@VerdantSquareRadio He asserts it, but he hasn&#39;t proven it. Bessel van der Kolk and Peter Levine&#39;s work depend heavily on pseudoscience. Unfortunately, they&#39;re both wildly successful as authors. The danger of their messages is that they keep people from getting scientifically established, more effective treatment for their PTSD. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10497315231206754 Even worse: he was abusive enough to workers in his own clinic that they ousted...

I&#39;ve been seeing this rope-like signal in 40m for the last couple of days. Anybody know what it is? #sdr #amateurradio #ham

Just caught 4U1UN on 40m band FT8, and I&#39;m kinda geeking out. This is sooooo addictive! https://www.qrz.com/db/4U1UN #SDR #FT8 #amateurradio #hamradio

Got bored, did a quick sketch in Krita. I&#39;ve been doing pen and ink so much lately, it was kind of strange holding a stylus. #krita #mastoart

Was still bored. Drew some more. The lesson? Be careful with boredom, it can get scary. About two hours on this sketch. #krita #mastoart

I keep seeing this sort of pattern in the waterfall at around 13.87MHz. Anyone more experienced know what it is? #sdr #amateurradio #hamradio

Digging around in some old files and found this. I&#39;d forgotten I&#39;d even drawn it. #krita #mastoart #art
