A human living in Tacoma, WA with my partner and our two dogs.

Enjoy cooking, pottery, hiking, an occasional run and I’ve been known to ski down a hill now and then.

I am a new student of Aikido and have been practicing meditation for a few years.

 Diversity and inclusion matter!

Oh, I run Tacoma.Community!

Back when they had a restaurant up top I ate there one afternoon and it was like that, pretty cool experience.
Sad they closed the restaurant so they could cram through more tourists. 😥

My partner just found the joy of geocaching. 😁
I had done it a bit back when you needed a handheld GPS lol
What site/app do you use for finding new ones?

My partner did daily Spanish for 2 years and can't speak nor understand much. Its starting to seem that maybe Duolingo is a scam. 🤬
Even the guardian has a story about it today.

My favorite part is the random farmers and land owners turning away millions upon millions for their land that would be used for data centers. 😁

Cornmeal waffles are def a thing in the US South. So much better to me than the overly sweet Belgium varieties.
Cornmeal waffle with some sausage gravy on top, don't mind if I do!

"From 'Oh, la la' to 'Oh, no!' Ciscoe talks spring gardening in the PNW"
I absolutely adore Ciscoe Morris!
I first found him when I moved to Seattle back in 2010. Such a good human and so knowledgeable about our local gardening needs.

Yeah Tacoma was I think one of the last ones but no longer, first they sold it to a local company, but now its owned by some east coast conglomerate. :(

I have a feeling Meshtastic is about to see adoption rates skyrocket.
I've had two different people just today in different circles ask about it.
I've fubared my device and need to reflash soon. Might get a repeater on the roof as well to help out.

That's awesome!
I just last week became aware of how many vets are now owned by Mars Inc alone. (2000+) As well as dog food companies, many of the major brands like pedigree and royal canine. :(
Once I found this out I looked into my vet having been suspicious recently of the high costs and nickel and diming us as of lately. Sure enough I find its part of a nationwide group of vets probably wrapped up in private equity. I haven't dug that deep yet.

Hey Tacomans! I am looking for someone in town who would be interested in helping us make a new logo and background image for Tacoma.Community.
Planning on making a nice landing page for the group and then extending the services to maybe a few more decentralized tools and a local wiki.

OK #Fediverse give me your favorite pickling brine recipes!
I have a bucket full of pickling cucumbers ready and waiting!
Hoping to get to canning some raw early girl tomatoes while figuring out our pickle brine!

Morning harvest today. Largest harvest this season. Now to figure out to how dry and cure the onion and garlic since I don't have a cool basement. 🤣

Good morning Tacoma!
I bring you news of an EXCELLENT new offering from our very own Outer Dark Coffee Co.
This "Lemonworld" is fandamntastic if I do say so myself. Currently my favorite coffee in the area. Very happy I was able to grab another bag from Delightful Neighborhood Market yesterday.
First bag I got from the roaster themselves downtown Tacoma.

For Tacoma.Community we currently use @npub18sk…l2gu
Not sure how many users are on the instance but could maybe migrate the instance over to them and let them worry about the server. :)
I'm sure some could help with the migration as well. Its pretty easy just a database backup and restore.

I gotta say my consensus of PNW weather is that we have to stop over-reacting.
The frenzy around this storm and the others similar esp winter storms then everything putters out is out of control.
It takes our attentions away from the real matters at hand, but that might be why the local news outlets cause the frenzy in the first place. 🤔

Can anyone tell me if you are planting in a container/raised bed does the spacing requirements shorten or should we stick with what the seeds state for spacing?

Very nice. I picked up two last week. Have one going using the local methods and its OK, but better than MyCroft was (I noticed Mycroft and Jarvis are wake words even lol)
Also much better for my privacy than using commercial offerings esp Amazon and Googles.
I plan to spend some time this weekend trying to figure out how to get my Ollama/OpenWebUI setup working with it. I've mostly been leaning on mistral models because ewe Meta. lol

Do I know anyone in Tacoma with a truck?
I have a need to pick up some 2x4, 4x4, plywood from Gray Lumber on 6th Ave for a crafting table project. 😂
(One of these days I am going to go down to the Tacoma shipping yards and buy a Kei truck I swear)

I am in the process of dropping all things apple after Tim decided to donate a million out of his own pocket to the inauguration fund.
Im leaning towards a @npub1pl0…qn57 FXL1 for phone replacement.
@npub1hn2…kl6z for Home replacement
I already use a Linux box as my daily driver but putting my recent MBP I snagged for giggles on craigslist for cheap.

if they are in the Tacoma area I started Tacoma.Community a few weeks ago. I also helped kick off Mastodon.SeattleMatrix.org which is open.
PNW.Zone is another I know of locally they might be interested in.
Another seattle one I know/trust is social.seattle.wa.us

Hello Fediverse, #Introduction time
Hello, I am Justin (he/him) and I live the rad city of #Tacoma Wa, aka #GritCity, with my partner and our two dogs.
I fix problems for a living and try to be the best #human I can day to day. I try and meditate at least weekly. I have also started to enjoy pottery and sewing as an outlet for creativity. I love to cook, and know my way around a ceramic smoker. If you know me in person you have probably tried my bacon. 🥓
I started Tacoma.Community. ❤️
