  Lots of people I know are testing positive for Covid in multiple US states. Keep some tests in the house! I had a very mild case a few years ago that felt like a cold, so other than additional quarantining, I treated it like a mild cold. I went back to my (very stressful) life as soon as I felt better. And within two weeks, I lost control of motor function in my extremities and a bunch of other weird symptoms. 1/2 #covid #longcovid #postviral

  Apparently there is a fandom wiki for "aesthetics" now which alternates between being wildly unserious and delightful https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Grandmillennial #wiki #aesthetics #design #web

  Professor Shoelace does a great job articulating what everyone who has a passion project online has felt. "For Ian, the cumulative effect of all of these factors is a deep sadness, a sinking feeling of exhaustion and futility. What is the point of adding value to the internet if it is only going to rob you? Why do research, make diagrams, and develop new knots?" https://aftermath.site/ians-shoelace-site-is-still-the-best-destination-for-tying-your-shoes/ via @DivergentRays...

  My brain is breaking as I try to figure out how this was achieved in etching.

  I just came back from a two-week, no computer trip down south (hence the silence here and in #junited ) I know it's easy to dig on Florida, but it is breathtaking and full of a lot of amazing human beings working really hard in spite of it all. They are loving and living and showing up for each other and making music and filming ICE raids and fighting for springs like these. #florida #floridasprings

  My neighbor spearheaded an effort to make 150 bagged meals and distribute them to 6 food fridges across Baltimore. All 6 were empty when we got there and some had community members waiting and helping us unload A reminder that a lot of Baltimore kids get their meals at school, so weekends and summer are extra important to fill in gaps! Here's a map for the Baltimore Community Fridge Network https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=144OL4Q89OhRc2JInBCT-TMrvVjZ5zG4&ll=39.2713415...

  The last six of my very fast and loose, unpressed quilt blocks for my first quilt. About 2/3 of the fabric is second-hand and about half of the fabric is old duvet covers or curtains. Pattern came from Baltimore's monthly free book giveaway, the Book Thing. A lot of ironing is in my future #quilting #quilt #sewing #textiles

  Big Day in #Baltimore! Kinetic Sculpture race from 9-7 pm AND Flower Mart! Favorite Kinetic Sculpture Race prize categories: "Worst Honorable Mention: Lowest Award known to Humankind. This is given to the Sculpture whose half-baked theoretical 'engineering' did not deter its Pilot(s) from the challenge of the race."

  A response to Forking Mad's question that's been making the rounds, and how I deliberately blog for a small audience (I do not want the public square again) https://smallcypress.bearblog.dev/anxiety-over-anonymity-who-knows-that-i-keep-a-blog/ #blog #privacy #surveillance #anonymity
