I'm a photographer & a retired art framer. All photos edited using Darktable on a Linux box (Linux user since the '90s) & licensed Creative Commons BY-SA 4.0. I'm opposed to AI. I follow science, history, & photography toots. Formerly, I was a civil rights & energy policy troublemaker (aka: community organizer). And I'm a former netcast producer & host of This Week in Energy, the Plug In America Show, & a couple Hacker Public Radio episodes.

Describe myself? Why? Who I believe I am is irrelevant to who you're going to believe me to be.

Language: While I do natively write in English, I also use DeepL to translate my text to better communicate. If you notice an error, please let me know, and I'll forward it to the right people.

Software engineer, former particle physicist, occasional blogger. I support the principle of cake.

Posting habits: ~80% #Monsterdon, ~10% #Python/#tech, ~10% funny/uplifting/entertaining content. Rare politics-related posts, always using popular hashtags so they can be filtered out. I typically don't boost posts with images unless they have #AltText.

What Orwell feared were those who would ban books.
What Huxley feared was that there would be no one who wanted to read one.
