ZMoved to Canageek@cyber.space @Canageek@octodon.social

I dabble in #music and for reasons I can't explain I got REALLY into making songs for the #GURPS ( #DnD ) campaign me and some friends are in. Like I figured out a motif and it's quite fun to modify it and/or add different synths/tempos to it.

Usually music isn't as huge of a thing for me so this is an awesome development. Especially considering the "Funky Tune Motif" was initially this songbit that I wasn't sure what to do with, and it was almost left to the wayside like the others

Here, have a playlist I made for the stuff I've created so far https://soundcloud.com/mannykat8x-1/sets/sunfall-stuff

Introduction time? I'm Canageek, I'm a #Canadian geek, not a geek in a can, or any other odd construction you can think of. I'm working on my PhD in #Inorganic #Chemistry making sensors for dangerous gases and using #crystallography to characterize them.

For fun I play #RPG s, including #GURPS #DnD and #CallofCthluhu . I also read #SFF but not as much as I should. I play the occasional computer and N64 game.

Oh and I'm in love with @DialMforMara , but right now we are living apart due to work.

Suggesting tags for wandering shop:
#recs for all media recommendations is one I'd like to see, so we can find things people like.

#anime maybe?
#audio or #podcast ?
#movies or #video? How granular do folks want to go?
#books vs. #text vs. ???

Yes, my inner catalog librarian is coming out. Who wants to play create-a-tagging-schema with me while I procrastinate grading?

@craigmaloney The whole idea of only searching tags is really dumb, to be honest. I'm glad Twidere is able to do full-text search. Also problem might be federation fail, which commonly hit searches.

For example search #Warhammer. mastodon.weaponvsac.space, wandering.shop and cybre.space get 0 or 1 hit. octodon.social gets a TON of hits.

Correction: octodon.social gets a bunch of hits for #EclipsePhase Downside of Wandering.shop being such a tiny instance, it doesn't have many connections outside it seems. (Less then cybre.space , more then mastodon.weaponvsac.space )

None of my accounts show any search hits for eclipse phase. Given Mastadons user base, I would have thought an RPG written by Socalists and about a semi-post scarcity society and alternate governance models would be more popular here...

On and transhumanism and you can play anthro characters.

remember, the results of the science march are inconclusive -- we need to conduct many more marches to study their effects, and for a proper double blind, everyone needs to be in black bloc

TFW you get up in the middle of the night to pee, don't put your glasses on, stop to look at your eyes up really close in the mirror cuz you're basically blind, and then suddenly there's a spider crawling like half an inch away from your eye. I mean, I like spiders, but give me my personal space, little arachnid dude.

Does anybody else here play #eclipsephase or #deltagreen? #RPG

Every year @DialMforMara knits something to be auctioned off for charity during Desert Bus for Hope. This year she is looking for geeky items that would raise decent amounts of money. Any suggestions?

dear people who are confused about mastodon:
mastodon is weird and very not twitter its fine lol

I don't fediverse at all. The local timeline and those folks I follow tend to be a good bunch of tooters for me.
