  Anybody got an extremely simple DIY bralette tutorial? Ideally a triangle-cup style similar to this (from the excellent @freesewing@freesewing.social ): https://freesewing.eu/showcase/bee-by-ts I think this is what I want (https://freesewing.eu/docs/designs/bee/options#crossbackties) but if there's a faster/easier one, I'd love to know; it's more for coverage than support, and rough/messy is OK :) Bonus if it works with T-shirt material (jersey?) scraps! I have a bunch from croppin...

  Gonna do these live in a sec for a *quick* #SpaceSongSunday – ft. the octave mandolin :) On IG for now, for technical reasons, but recording will go on #MakerTube ✨ https://instagram.com/glowascii https://chaos.social/@alexglow/116575412583408397

  I worked over the weekend, but still... [NOT glorifying overwork i've just signed myself up for a lot of things] https://icy.wyvern.rip/notes/amea4luzv98es3j8

  No lie, I've been planning one of these for years! Apparently there's a girlypop #cyberdeck moment going on, so maybe the burnout-recovery gods will finally grant me the executive function to complete it... https://www.hackster.io/glowascii/polly-s-primer-polly-pocket-inspired-pi-powered-cyberdeck-ed8178 https://chaos.social/@davedarko/116597117130992796

  I had a Third Fig too, you know; but I let William stay: He got into the icebox—and now William must pay!

  No lie, I've gotten so tired of unsolicited advice (which is usually given before attempting to understand the context – and is thus laughably basic and/or plain wrong) that I started designing these cards for what to do instead. This one in particular would get a lot of use 🙃 https://mastodon.social/@sundogplanets/116415412197082035

  Two hours to go ^_^ Chill and cozy stream, acoustic guitar + voice, more originals & fewer Space Songs (but not none!) ✨ https://mastodon.social/@limebar/116415071720047743

  Latin nerds, I need you! Offering Elvish nerdery in return 👇 Trying to translate "keep it secret – keep it safe" to #Latin, which I know is tricksy. Looking at verbs like servare and conservare, and adjectives for "safe" like tutus/salvus/securus...?? If you can help, I will write your phrase of choice in Tengwar (Elvish script)! Here's a sample of one way I write it – though I'll do straight lines 😅 I'll write them on a livestream and link image files for you....

  Honored to be invited for another virtual concert with excellent Fedi folks 😸✨ I've been working on making some better recordings to share along with this – but since I'm slow, I'll add 'em below.

  RE: https://chaos.social/@alexglow/116133185247194467 This Thursday! Live companion bot building 🤩 I really like the Alvik – it's cute and approachable, but when I did the unboxing a couple years ago, I realized that its components and API are way more powerful than it lets on: https://www.hackster.io/glowascii/first-steps-with-the-arduino-alvik-robot-kit-f229bb#toc-approachable--yet-powerful-0 Glad to finally come back to it!

  Hey, #chainmail friends: Got a reliable source for high-quality scale #maille? I've been prototyping with scales from Fire Mountain Gems, but 30-60% are unusable for jewelry – due to scratches/scuffs and the occasional discoloration. :/ Preferably: - 35.8mm x 22.2mm size option - USA - Multicolored aluminum (OR extra points for reasonably-priced titanium/niobium anodized scales!) // #Maker #SolicitedAdvice https://chaos.social/@alexglow/116014646843186181

  What if you could save data to your earrings? I've been working on this #Charmware MicroSD jewelry concept for a year+, and (as with the recent LED one), am SO EXCITED to finally pull together some semi-polished prototypes!! This year, I intend to finally start selling my functional circuit board jewelry – including custom/branded options for these. Site coming soon at https://charmware.tech 👀 Current info: https://www.notion.so/alexglow/dataCharm-2ae5bc4fe79880368b71f871e3fb6ef4 // #jew...

  New vid! #PCBs I made in 2025, part 1: LED charm ✨ https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTH1NuelDig Finally pulled together a prototype with this little board – one of my new #Charmware set, reviving the series of modular tech #jewelry bits I started back in 2018. Been dreaming of assembling these with elytra and bike-leather, and the day finally came... The board still needs some tweaks (smaller switch etc.), but with my fixed-up #KiCad workflow, those will be a snap. 😸 // #Maker #LEDs #WearableTec...
