I've been building a Facebook Events style event organizing system for the Fediverse. It's based on the simple, open source, privacy-respecting event organizing tool https://gath.io

The attached video is a work-in-progress preview and shows compatibility with Mastodon. My hope is to get it working with lots of software, including stuff like Friendica that supports events and calendars.

i made a zine! It's about chronic illness and healthcare stuff, and full of collaged pain scales and patient intake forms and the like. https://mxmatched.itch.io/1-to-10-zine

For people looking for an alternative to Facebook events that isn't spammy like evite and the like, I recommend checking out https://gath.io

It requires no login, basically you provide an email address, you get a unique editing URL, you make a nice looking event form, and people can RSVP there. Your event and all related info is deleted from their DB 2 weeks after the event is over.

I'm not releasing the code publicly yet but I've written a tool that lets ANY user of this instance direct message EVERY OTHER user of this instance through a proxy account (so people can block the proxy if they want).

Why would we want this? Friend Camp is a small (70 person, 40 active) invite-only instance of people who trust each other. We like to organize events (book clubs, etc) but not everyone sees everything. So this is for doing that kind of thing.

I bothered the cat and she was like “yes? Do you want something?”

My Coral Cups are finally available for pre-order. If anyone wants some computationally-crafted porcelain cups... https://n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com/shop/product.php?code=367

What more fitting way to name a robotics team than to give the task to a neural net? This one was trained on 6k names from FIRST robotics.

Definitely don't mess with team WALKS THE MEATS.
