Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

For the curious: my editor theme (in VS Code) is now Omni Owl (https://github.com/guilhermerodz/omni-owl), and my font is Annotation Mono (https://qwerasd205.github.io/AnnotationMono/) with font weight 500. It's *really* satisfying to type stuff in that!
Project update! Our living room is multi-use, so we needed an easier way to move the table around. And now it has wheels!
This was somewhat nontrivial - originally the table only had two thin rectangular 'feet' as part of the sideboard's shape, not wide enough to mount wheels too. So I also had to make little feet, screwed to the underside, that can hold the wheel mounts.
The color match isn't *perfect*, but it's pretty good! The feet started as bits of plywood; I glued two layers of it together per foot, sanded the entire stack of 4 feet down as a single block, then manually sanded nice smooth edges all around. Then a few (rapid) coats of wood stain, and finally a coat of varnish.
I also accidentally discovered a new technique in the process; the only varnish I have is glossy, but the table's varnish is matte. Turns out that by repeatedly alternately a) lightly and carefully sanding and b) applying some highly diluted varnish (ie. the water from my brush cleaning pot...), you can turn it into a matte finish!
(Pictures of the wheels installed on the table in next toot)
I built a new work table for my garage today! Sort of! There were already two half storage racks there with some planks haphazardly on top, serving as a makeshift worktable; so I sanded the edges of some very thin plywood of sorts, varnished it, then nailed it to the top. And now it looks a lot nicer!
I also made a little tray hanging on the wall, to hold my glue and spray cans and such.
Today's projects: filling the other raised bed with (mixed) soil, bolting a rack to the wall in the garage, as well as a ledge to hang my long clamps on, and finally the biggest project of the day: putting my table saw on wheels!
(And accidentally generating a sorting challenge, oops)
