Hey, you.

👉 You are worthy of love. 👈

Every day. Up days. Down days. In bed days. In the street days. In the gutter days. On the moon days.

👉 You are worthy of love every dang day. 👈

Yes, you.

I split my time between three accounts:
- Morning thoughts and dog pix: @trevorfsmith
- Maker/machinist/manufacturer chitchat: @trevorflowers@machines.social
- Web-ish XR for Transmutable News: @trevorflowers@widerweb.org

Another way to frame this: What if rockets were designed to be single use lifters that became cargo in orbit?

Morning thought: Instead of bringing rockets' first stages back to Earth for reuse, what if we leave them in orbit where refined metals are scarce?

Looks like I picked the wrong week to be dependent on a global supply chain.

Morning thought: Version 5 of the actual Web will be our personal area networks, store and forward meshed as our foraging teams pass within radio range.

Hey, so there's a version of the FOSS pixel editor with the ableist name which is the same but is named "Glimpse". If you don't care to use the original name then maybe use that.

Specifically in my neighborhood, that is.

The more I think about it the less I like using the development of warp drives and subspace communication as the line between people to avoid and people to contact.

Morning thought: An urban neighborhood tool sharing and learning center with an off-grid mode for crucial repairs during hard times.

It's probably a result of spending time as a youngling near Utrecht but Dutch accented English is one of my favorite Englishes.

If you feel that spending on suburban infrastructure is not sustainable then I have bad news about Mars.

TIL about @fedivision, the fediverse music competition. So, that's fun.

It’s time to eat the richies,
it’s time to automate.
It is a time of leisure,
on the muppet show tonight.

I wonder how much spit is in billionaires' food.

I, personally, would be fine with NASA acknowledging that it's highly unlikely that we'll find that life in our solar system originated anywhere except Earth and then stop framing every aspect of science on other planets as looking for microbes. Other planets are freaking cool. Why can't that be enough?
