The elder spawn has completed another lap around the sun. This has been an especially tough year for him and I’m incredibly grateful to share the unspeakable horrors with him.

Our little void went into the big void tonight at sunset. He had a good life and a beautiful death surrounded by the people who loved him.

Really enjoying this new Jeff Mills joint that arrived on my front porch while I was out fruitlessly standing in line for record store day.
My kid said it sounds like elevator music.

We just passed HB 2143 A in the Oregon legislature! 5NP for non-acupuncturists is coming to Oregon! Big ups to Rep Nosse for sponsoring the bill and speaking righteous truths on the floor, to my homies at POCA Tech, and the OAA for their contributions. Look at all that green!

Yesterday afternoon’s volunteer receptionist brought in a bouquet of flowering rosemary to the acupunk factory and the front desk smells amazing right now.

Finally truly finished building and tuning the RE-808 and got it all tucked into the case today. Overdriving the foot drum through the desk brings so much joy. #synthsky

Finished. Always surprised and grateful when these things just work right off. Beautiful growl to this one.

Today’s neurodivergent joy: hyperfocusing on building a guitar pedal. SMD is intimidating but actually pretty easy with tweezers and a magnifying lamp. Pedal is Aion Artemis, clone of a clone of an Ampeg SVT bass amp.

Cat scene report: after a few very rough days, Percy seems to be on the mend. Sparkle has stopped hissing at him. They both demanded (and received) second breakfast this morning. So grateful for more time with this duo.

Percy is back at home and alive to fight another day. His guts are hecked and he’s got a bunch of drugs to take, so were hoping the innate oneryness of his life force takes advantage of the help to bounce back to his usual chonky ways.

Sitting at the vet waiting to find out about transferring to a different hospital to figure out why this boy stopped eating. Really tore up about it. He’s only 10 and he’s acting like it’s time to move on.
