I bought myself a @hakkousa desoldering gun and I gotta say it's absolutely fantastic and I wish I could have afforded it years ago:

OKAY! After folks expressed an interest, I put some of these Oddly Specific Daybooks on the Oddly Specific shop. Order today and I'll ship them tonight; depending where you are, you could have one in hand by the weekend. It's also just $8 plus shipping — cheap! shop.oddlyspecificobjects.com/

We are soooo excited about the #soldersesh this Thurs at 9am Pacific! It's all about @arduino and the new Make Your UNO kit - we'll be talking with Alessandro Ranellucci, Anna Vigano, and hopefully Giuseppe Pinto as well about the development of the kit, history of the Uno, and all things Arduino. And I'll be soldering up an Uno while doing it! Note the special EARLY time since they're joining us live from Italy. Boosts appreciated, see you there! youtube.com/watch?v=3i50TqNwNS

I just learned that Tucker Carlson's fetish has caused the Mars Candy folks to change their marketing strategy.

Wow.

Gearing up for the Year of the Rabbit with these little phone stand keychain bunnies from @printablescom . On the print bed they look like they're ready to start a race. Just need to print a tortoise like @timonsku's now.

I heard you like CR2032 Battery Connectors, so I made a list of the good ones that you can buy from LCSC.

To my trans friends and neighbors: I see you.

You matter.

Your rights matter.

Your lives matter.

My final assembly table is full of parts for #LuxLavalier, #EvilGeniusLabs Krakens, Fibonacci64 Flowers, Fibonacci256, and Fibonacci512!
Have you ever seen so many #PixelBlaze in one photo?! 🤩
Or PixelBlaze Sensor Expanders still panelized?
Lux Lavalier is in stock in @wizard's store:

Everything else is coming to my @tindie store in the next few weeks!

I'm older so I remember things. Everything you see happening today should be understood this way:

The top tax rate used to be 90% in order to prevent the really rich from destroying democracy.

The corporate tax rate was 50% because corporations exist to serve society.

AND the inheritance tax was really high to keep family dynasties from gaining power over us.
