@botvolution yes. Starting at 9:30 every night

It's all rainy and I'm stuck inside. None of my current projects seem compelling. I think I'll go make something on the wood lathe

I will always accidentally type sulfure instead of sulfur and flue instead of flu. No idea why I have this tic.

Ceramics class!

I got my swirly mug back from firing and it looks great!

More ceramics: I glazed one of the tripod mugs I made for a class assignment and sent it off for firing

I threw and trimmed a nice bowl and carved a kurinuki marbled cup

Sometimes you have to bring an idea to life, no matter how stupid it might be

Woke up after a night out drinking with no hangover, rode my bike to the grocery store in the rain to get breakfast stuff, and beat octordle with a score of 60. Today is starting off well.

I was thinking about going to the ceramics studio for a while today, but it's raining, which means I would need to drive, and that's erasing a lot of my motivation

I got the mostly-salvaged-river-parts e-bike, aka E-xpand-o-bike, into enough shape this afternoon to take it on a ride around the block.

I still need to fabricate a mount for the battery and the controller and do all the cable routing, but it works!

And it looks peak mad scientist on meth right now, so I had to show a picture to the Fediverse.

Hobart Jones, esteemed electric bike inspector, has arrived to investigate its roadworthiness

I found something interesting in the e-waste

Apparently it cost 25 cents when new

I do not know what it is. I can make broad guesses, but I've never seen one of these before and the label "holes" doesn't tell me much

Our climate is so insane now. It's winter here in LA and it was 80 degrees a little while ago (which is not weird for LA), but now it's pouring rain with lightning and thunder like a summer thunderstorm

This is the third time in recent days that my attempts to work on e-xpand-o-bike have been interrupted by surprise rain
