The addition of Trends is a good time to play another round of #Introduction:
I'm @bpugh (he/him/they). I was born to parents who followed the #GratefulDead and raised surrounded by literal and figurative #clowns. While my day job is #software, I'm mostly interested in how that's used for #communication and supporting #FreeExpression.
#Introduction pt. 2:
I try to support: #EFF, #ACLU, #NetNeutrality, #POC, #intersectionality, #LGBTQIA
I am interested in: #MeshNetworks / #MeshNet, #AmateurRadio, #SelfHosted, #p2p / #PeerToPeer, and #FederatedServices, #Accessibility, #A11Y, #Photography, #Podcasts #TheAdventureZone / #ZoneCast, #CriticalRole, #Splatoon / #Splatoon2, #PokemonGo / #PoGo, #Comics / #ComicBooks

Trying to help today slowly ramp down into the weekend, and #LusciousJackson plays an intengral part of this for me today:
#NowPlaying #FediPlay #MastoRadio #FeverInFeverOut by #LusciousJackson
Speaking of kind messages, I think adding "fortune | ponysay" to my .profile has improved my workday immensely.
Also, I freaking love the #Splatoon & #Splatoon2 community.
Transcription of handwritten text: "I'm sorry the weight of the world is a little too heavy to hold right now... Just know things CAN and WILL get better... but for now, keep doing your best. Your best is always enough"
Back from trips and trawling through my photos for #pixelfed worthy uploads. I pre-apologize for the flood of posts to @bpugh@pixelfed.social later tonight.
Lyrics about end of life (& rebirth?)
And the earth looked at me and said "wasn't that fun?"
And I replied "I'm sorry if I hurt anyone"
And without even thinking cast me into space
But before she did that she wiped off my own face
She said better luck next time don't worry so much
Without ears I couldn't hear I could just feel the touch
As I fell asleep softly at the edge of a cave
But I should have gone deeper but I'm not so brave
