My introduction post.

Old hippie raised in #SoCal w/6 siblings. Lived in #Maine, #Colorado, #Iowa, #Wisconsin. Went to 12 schools in 12 years. Had many jobs -- from building boats to making screws (really), from retail to short order cook, from newspaper editor to magazine publisher, from freelance writer to photographer.

I swear a lot; fucking get over it. Liberal & atheist.

Since I'm new to the wandering.shop, moved over from home.social, I guess a new #introduction is in order. I'm a writer of fiction: mystery/suspense, science fiction, fantasy, and whatever strikes my fancy! I'm currently training to be a book coach to help people through all the things, so they don't spend years figuring it out like I did. I enjoy #nature, #science, #hiking, #biking, and #vegan #cooking and #baking. Oh, also #art and #architecture.

#introduction
I'm a mostly retired "student at large" living in #CampbellRiver on #VancouverIsland in beautiful #BritishColumbia.
I pursue #LiveLongLearning in a variety of ways especially through #Travel.
And
#Art #Photography #StoryTelling #Cooking #Keto #Health #Fitness #Mentoring #OdysseyProject

OK, so here is my #introduction !

I live in the most isolated capital city in the world, #Perth , and therefore on Whadjuk #noongar boodja. I pay my respects to the traditional custodians of the land, and their Elders - past, present, and emerging.

I am male (he/him), and married to the amazing artist @leece .

I have been a #Linux #Sysadmin for most of my professional life, and use Linux or derivatives exclusively at home.

For fun, I play #rpg games, and #boardgame . I also swim as a #mermaid (well, mer-dude), and ride a three-wheeled human-powered vehicle called a Me-Mover. I have a Hobie Outback pedal-powered kayak, which takes me back to my past as a Sea Scout on the Swan. I enjoy playing with #lego, #cooking, #preserving, and many, many other things.

I am #teetotal (and have been all my life) but love making mixed drinks, and have an extensive #zeroproof bar.

I am an amateur #photographer without any particular speciality, but I do particularly like taking shots of #birds (especially #raptors ), and other mer-folk. I also enjoy shooting #pinhole B&W, and play with in-camera #cyanotype (about which I have written extensively on my blog) . To round things out, I take quite a few #solargraph images.

For the past few years, I have been learning Nyoongar (primarily the Marribank).

Recently I have fallen into writing - you can find my two on-going tales as #CerianandVaranWar and #GwenAndGrey .

Here is a shot of me taken by the amazing @leece on #Wadjemap .

#Introduction take 2. I'm Luke, often Doz online. UK, Suffolk. 40ish. By day a remote .NET/JS developer slash scrum wrangler. He/him.

Keen on
#Cooking - Indian and Middle Eastern but dabble in others
#Gardening and #HousePlants only just got a garden and finding my feet after years of being in a flat.

Also interested in the regular gamut of geekery
#3DPrinting
#HomeAssistant with too many devices #Zigbee #ESPHome etc
#LEGO
#SteamDeck
#DnD and others on #FoundryVTT
#SciFi #Fantasy books

I guess I should do yet another #introduction. Hmmm…. #cats. #domesticviolence advocate. #ally for everyone who isn’t a healthy straight white Christian man. #design in lots of mediums. #cooking. #music (all sorts). I’m #old and #cranky, and prefer #cats to people. #capybaras rock. #WalkableStreets #art (all sorts)

It's 5:30 PM, so I have plenty of time to make some flavored tortilla chips for tonight.
Curry? Hot paprika? Onion? Garlic? All of the above?

An #introduction.

I'm a backend #node developer in #vancouver, I've been running #vrchat 's backend (badly) since about 2016 (when it was just me). Now it's loads more people!

Most of what I post is not serious or thoughtful. I like my #bengal #cat, I used to make #comics (I'm an extremely mediocre artist) and now perform micro-acts of forgettable #gamedev when I get the chance. I like #boardgames and #alcohol and #coffee and #cooking and #restaurants.

Hi everyone,

My name in Anna, and I'm a research fellow in #ArtificialIntelligence. I'm mostly interested in Boolean satisfiability and counting.

I'm a nerd, a feminist and a traveller, not always in that order.

I'm an expat who misses her friends and family, and recently moved in with a dog and a cat.

In my spare time, I like #hiking, #geocaching, #knitting, #reading, #cooking and #baking.
