I did the same, with less stunning results. What was your exposure time?

Today: canceled email software subscription, canceled a bunch of online services, started setting up a personal Patreon for art, & renewed my @alamodrafthouse.bsky.social pass.

Because joy is a form of rebellion.

Tonight is the 1984 Return of Godzilla.

Dear @elgato.com, I'm a science educator at a non profit. My studio is powered by Elgato (2 cameras, 4 lights, stream deck, teleprompter, many many arms).

You don't sponsor us... but you could.

And that would enable bertter scicomm.

(I have fantasies of presenting using your new teleprompter.)

Did you know that as part of the FAA cutbacks, they are eliminating daytime launches?

If New Glenn doesn't launch Sunday, it is unclear when it can launch. The ESCAPADE mission waits on board.

Happy Halloween! It's Story time :-)

This year I'll be reading Carmilla (1872) by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. This is a sapphic story of a young woman taken in by a powerful female vampire.

This is a charity fundraiser for CosmoQuest.
