I had lunch with two of my friends who moved to China in 2019 for school & work and wow... they had some amazing stories! (One including a very threatening monkey on a mountain.) It was cool to hear about the things they miss from the US (and the list of things they;ll take back with them) but ultimately they said they would probably never return to the US since health care here is so expensive.

These prints turned out pretty bad but they were really just a test (that mostly failed). #art #printMaking

Weird issue with GarlicOS on the RG35XX today. Games launch, then quit, and the screen blinks/flashes repeatedly. (Doesn’t happen when I switch back to stock OS.) #garlicOS #anbernic #rg35xx

Dude looks serious as shit this morning.

A big list of fantasy consoles / computers. Wow, quite a lot. I'll probably focus on PICO-8 and dabble with TIC-80 though. ➡️

I finally got a new typewriter. (The one on the right.) I had a blue "Easy Writer" about 30 years ago and someone lost it in the many moves over the years. Yes, it's plastic, yes, it's a "toy", and yes, it really types. A friend of mine who collects typewriters managed to find it for me so I bought it from her. Sweet! #milwaukee #qwerty #typewriter

Many years ago I ended up staying with an old ex-girlfriend when I traveling. I'd been married a long time, and she was seeing someone long term, but it was great to reconnect and meet her partner. A few years passed and she and her partner split up. Which was awkward for me, because I *really* liked her partner. He seemed extremely cool and interesting, and was very creative. I still follow some of his work online, but I don't know... it just feels weird.

A few more additions to my sidewalk square project. The idea is to find one in Milwaukee for every year. ➡️

I’ve been quiet lately but I’m deeply immersed in PICO-8 games… #pico8 #retroGaming #handheld

Sometimes when you screw up the woodworking measurements, you end up fixing it with a special 3D printed part… #maker #3Dprinting @npub1zmg6...z2j3

I designed and (relief) printed a generic birthday card. My plan is/was to do a bunch of different ones and have them sitting around ready to go when an unexpected birthday sneaks up on me. Would you prefer a hand-printed card (that I actually designed) to a store-bought card? #art #design #printing #printMaking #birthday

I've been back from holiday almost two full days and I feel completely burned out.
