@ascentale @bikenite I looked closer at it in my original (larger) photo, that's a midi port as far as I can tell
probably should bring a keyboard, not a playback device
but i just don't know

@ascentale and thank you as always for hosting ^_^
@ascentale @bikenite Out on errands last time, I stopped by the Kenmore post office to drop off some mail and noticed a sign pointing me towards this new store: "music non-stop / play * record * collect"
Sadly they were closed that day despite being a Wednesday, but they do warn you:
"days & hours of operation are organic
generally wed - sat 12 pm - 8 pm usually on sunday & also by appointment
sometimes we close earlier & sometimes we close later, so call or check the website first"
their window display includes not just the usual antiques but things like WIRE RECORDINGS so I'm like
I gotta see this place when it's open
@Natasha_Jay i so feel 1 october 1861
@meganL I had but seeing some _right in front of me_ was some HOLY SHIT DINOSAUR SKIN REAL moment
@cainmark @ascentale @bikenite Honestly that was the coolest part to me, because SOFT TISSUE HOLY SHIT
here are some ribs, too, they are not soft tissue but still ^_^
@josh @ascentale @bikenite oh yikes
congratulations, you have found the worst weather, you can go home now
xD
@cainmark @ascentale @bikenite yeh
i was kinda finger-bleeding all the way home and it'll be bandaged for a bit, but otherwise I'm fine. ^_^
@ascentale @bikenite A8: DINOSAUR SKIN
actual, from a specimen from a dig in, uh. shit. Montana? Pretty sure it's the Montana dig.
Technically this is fossilized _impression_ of dinosaur skin. But... dinosaur skin.
@ascentale @realSiegfried @MarkBrigham @Trailanderror @bikenite A5: honestly I've kind of struggled with it because too many options sound like motorcycle. I do say "Bike first," sometimes.
@yantor3d @ascentale @bikenite yay!
that's something I found gets easier with just doing it more often too, first couple of times I tried it I was all "...thumbs?" but now I'm like "oooooh okay, I think I'm getting this." Not up to _confident_ yet, but. 
@ascentale @bikenite A1: North King County like usual. Nothing really new with my bike this week, but I did get tossed by that stupid F***ING curb gap that I always take perpendicular to avoid being tossed by it but NOT THIS TIME, APPARENTLY
(i am fine. i have a bandaid on my left pointer finger. It doesn't even hurt.)
@therainingmonkey @inthehands maybe even direct that to idk
the organisation that actually made it
which i don't have anything to do with
@MissGayle @inthehands yea okay c-ya
@MissGayle @inthehands "Google docs is not a safe way to share information" THAT IS MEANT TO BE KEPT SECRET, WHICH THIS IS NOT.
This is information meant to be shared and publicised.
If you don't know when to apply your opsec, you don't know how to apply opsec.
@inthehands Seattle schools are already on alert, people (including me) have been making and distributing whistle packs, they're to the point of being kits and there's a map of dropoff/pickup locations at businesses, and so on:

They're winding up to attack us, but there aren't enough of them to do this everywhere. We hear you, and we are getting ready.
