Nobody seems to know what this bird is. It’s not difficult. First person to name it gets a zap. View quoted note →

Dropped in to visit our local volunteer bird banders again early this morning. They’re a great team doing important work. There’s a zap waiting for whoever correctly identifies this bird! #birdstr #naturestr #newengland #massachusetts #berkshires #grownostr

Did any ideas come to you today?

Just had an idea that I think has genuine potential. Feels good! -Tom

Pretty much questioning everything right now in work and life. But there’s solace in the inevitability of #bitcoin. -Tom

Obviously the dream here is/was to mine #bitcoin with our excess energy, but realistically we have to export as much as we can to the grid to offset what we spend on energy during the winter, and simultaneously we need energy for our car too. So I suppose the answer is that we somehow need more. More solar and more batteries, mine BTC and sell what’s left. #energystr #solar #solarpower #energy #massachusetts #newengland #nostr View quoted note →

Today was a solar spill day. We generated 65kWh of energy, of which our house used 20%, we exported 58% to the grid, and dumped the rest into our car and home batteries. Solar is amazing this time of year. #solar #solarpower #energy #energystr #massachusetts #newengland #nostr

I’m calling it now, the original Star Wars movies (episodes 4, 5 & 6) will be remade for an adult audience within the not-too-distant future. Andor has shown what the Star Wars universe looks like when it’s oriented towards adults, and since the generation that grew up with Star Wars is now 40 years older it makes so much sense to reimagine that original trilogy for an older audience. I never thought I’d say that but here we are. #andor is incredible by the way. -Tom #starwars #starwarsstr

We are excited to be documenting the progress of an old Japanese timber frame that has now been relocated to Western #massachusetts and after a few repairs will become part of our builder’s new shop space in Tyringham, MA. This is a 150 year-old 'kura' or storehouse that was previously part of a silk mill in Shinshiro. The process was managed by the North American branch of Kominka Collective, a not-for-profit company who specialize in saving Japanese kominka, cottages, studios, and traditional materials that would have otherwise been destroyed. It will be fascinating to watch this project develop over the coming months… #photography #photostr #construction #buildstr #visualstorytelling #pappasbland
