The South Sound Street Medics (SSSM) are an Indigenous-led group who actively work in social justice movements and with underserved communities by providing free immediate medical care. The SSSM are trying to respond to a call to aid the Winnemucca Indian Colony, supporting their fight to protect their land and homes. The funds will be used to rent a car to both travel and transport elders in need of medical attention.

My Beat Saber workout was shit this morning, but I did make my favorite dinner rolls. These take about 4 hr for me to put together (I mix milk from powder, so I have a little extra prep) and have been delicious from my very first attempt at them: youtu.be/Rosj1ZlLGlU
Unfortunately, this is one his few recipes that he doesn't have written up anywhere. If anyone wants it, I've written it out in a way that I only need to refer to the video if I need a technique reminder, and I can post it.

Found this Eastern Small-eyed Snake tonight under the house.
Very chill fellow, which we left alone (apart from a quick photoshoot).
Highly venomous (mytotoxic) with one recorded death in the greater brisbane area (probably quite some time ago, the Qld Museum book doesn't specify).

Wow, this paper looks super interesting
tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
A patchwork of platforms: mapping data infrastructures in schools, by Luci Pangrazio, Neil Selwyn & Bronwyn Cumbo
From the abstract:
This paper explores the significance of schools’ data infrastructures as a site of institutional power and (re)configuration
Taking an institutional perspective, the paper explores why digital technologies continue to complicate (rather than simplify) school processes and practices.
I guess data infrastructure is kinda nebulous so I don't really know what systems are being discussed.
Moodle is a software for online learning (like Blackboard) so has tools for students to use forums, evaluations, readings, etc. Teachers can collect information about how the materials are being engaged with and communicate to students etc. Data in Moodle (courses, grades, users) can be exported and development is open source so there is an open discussion of features.
I know Moodle from my undergraduate and master's in Madrid, we used it at University Carlos III de Madrid. I personally didn't find it specially useful, it was more of a repository of documents than any other thing but it's true that's already a few years ago.
In this paper they don't talk about Moddle, but they do say that schools preferred "professional" tooling coming from the corporate world, which are assumed to be more effective because there is a market for them.

Mother of all evil is speculation. Once again proven, people do everything because selfish reasons. Not all of course but the ones who quickly want to become rich.

What’s this? Another ambitious project? Sure why not?!
I fully expect to make a complete hash of this but let’s see how we go eh?

Still need to slot the quillions and guard and clean everything up and do a LOT of grinding.
#blacksmith #metalwork #cutlass #sword #BeMorePirate
Since I also don’t have long thing drill bits, I used the more tradition method of heating the tang and pushing it through the wood.
#sword #cutlass #blacksmith
I’m leaning towards the wire. I’ve twisted some two tone wire which I think looks ok. I could twist it on itself to make it thicker, or fill the groove with clear epoxy once the wire is in place.
So I *think* I should be ok either way.
Dad might know. Will have to see if I can remember to ask.
More blade cleanup today. It’s down to 500g now so I can’t take any more off, except for some light sanding and the final sharpen. Still needs heat treating too.
#cutlass #sword #blacksmith #woodwork
Test fit time!
Actually fits together fairly well, weight distribution is such that the balance point is 5cm in front of the guard, making for a very lively sword. Total weight is 1.2kg or about the same as my rapier (which is considerably longer).
The blade still needs heat treating and then I have all the fiddly bits in the fit up to secure everything.
#sword #cutlass #BeMorePirate #blacksmith
Well it took quite a while, but I'm calling this one done.
Here is my very first #cutlass modelled on the Dutch style from around the 1680s.
It is, by no means perfect, but the fit-up is pretty tight, and it is functionally sharp.
(iphone photos, will do some better ones later)
And of course, you have to do a cut test.
My edge alignment could have been a little better, but this is the first time I've tried swinging the blade at something.
#cutlass #sword #blacksmith #video
Not too bad a cut. Maybe could have been marginally closer to get the back of the cut a bit cleaner, although that was probably just bad technique on my part.
Yep 😀
The whole thing was a series of learning processes, which is kinda why I did it (ok, so pirate cutlasses are pretty awesome in their own right, but I totally did it to learn stuff) 😉
