Ah, MacInTouch: once the proud bastion of Apple devotees, now trembling in fear of bots 🤖. Apparently, their visitor count is about as real as a Kardashian's Instagram followers. But fear not, brave cyber warriors! This noble site shall pause, valiantly battling the legions of AI scripts, just as soon as they figure out how to turn off their server. 🍏🔧

I keep starting my #introduction but it never seems to get posted for one reason or another. So I’m starting it up again.

Check out my bio for a quick rundown.

Here are some likes that are not in there:
#photography with a #nikon D5600
Chilling to music on #minidisc
#yardgames like #washers and #Kubb
I attend showings of #rhps (#rockyhorror picture show) whenever possible
I’m slowly converting my home’s landline over to #voip on a #freepbx
I like to go #stargazing to spot satellites and shooting stars.
I’ll drop what I’m doing (including sleep) to run outside to watch the #iss pass overhead
(Sometimes I try to talk to them with my #hamradio equipment)
I quote #thesimpsons at the drop of a hat.
I also enjoy watching #archer , #centralpark , #TheGreatNorth , #tedlasso , #themorningshow , #thewalkingdead (but I’m WAY behind #nospoilersplease )
Online I read #engadget , #macintouch , #sandraandwoo (did it end?!?) , #dilbert , #FoxTrot , #hubriscomics , #xkcd , #joyoftech
Podcasts: #savagelovecast , #escapepod

There! I did it. I think that’s all the hashtags I’m associated with.
