Hello there, I'm a Gen X small business owner and lifestyle blogger. I'm also a wife, crafter, gardener, and crazy cat lady living in Dunedin, New Zealand.
Big Eurovison fan :)

31/F??/Te Whanganui-a-Tara, living w 2 cute cats and my wife. Programmer, teacher, gamer nerd.
I've spent half my working life as a broadcaster and half as a software developer. Along the way I've been a professional musician, and an assistant to apiarists and undertakers (although not at the same time).
I live in Whanganui, where I write and record music, write web and desktop software utilities for my own amusement, and enjoy biking, reading and travelling.
Sauna サウナ, wine, craft beer, beer brewing, 日本酒, BBQ, chilis, guitar, French Horn, Flügelhorn, jazz, Irish Setters, vinyl & books. 30+ yrs in IT - mostly for Silicon Valley startups building the Asia Pacific business. Old Unix and Emacs guy. Finnish/German/Chicagoan in NZ via Japan and now a proper Kiwi.
Follow me over at mastodon.beer @sumisu3 for #beer and #brewing related.
A kiwi. A builder. A musician. A believer in science ahead of fallacies.
Like to ponder because it's good for the brain and doesn't require too much physicality.
Only swear when I'm frustrated, annoyed or just plain P......off.
I live in South Canterbury. The most livable climate in Aotearoa NZ.
An Otrovert.

Anarchist and Tech worker, currently living in Whāingaroa NZ. I follow almost everyone that interacts with me and happy for any follows!
Embarrassed about the mess I and my lot have made of the planet and society. Hoping to tidy up a bit before I go.
Systems thinker; I see them everywhere and am fascinated by them, especially the systems of the natural world. Have been described as an "intuitive visionary".
Not qualified to call myself an expert in anything, but I like to think I know stuff.
Pragmatist. Interests: #Geek #ClassicRock, #HappyLife #Science #ClimateChange #sustainability, #equity, #Future #consciousconsumer
Usually found Elsewhere, so this should be the perfect place for me. Longer thoughts at Acid Test (http://www.molvray.com/acidtest/) and Reimagining Democracy (http://www.molvray.com/govforum), (1st ed. 2010).

Nigella Lawson said I was special on another platform. On here I'm still open to new celebrity endorsement.
CW: I sometimes accidentally type stuff out loud that probably shouldn't escape my brain 🤦♂️

West Aucklander. Doing digital for Greenpeace since before Facebook. Now head of communications. :tinoflag:
Aged researcher for a Wellington-based start-up. Lived behind a nom-de-plume on squarkbox, but gradually getting ok with idea of saying who I am, here.
I'm Gary, and I've been on the web one way or another for over quarter of a century, and on Mastodon for two years, and I've never used centralised social media.
I've lived in #Aotearoa #NewZealand and #USA, and visited various other places. For most of my life I've been a #SystemsProgrammer at a university.
Have trouble fitting thoughts to 500 characters, so omit many words, sorry.
Civil liberties, geekery, politics, YA/SF books, tasty vegan food, family life, #NerdCryptic. Yes I do have a beagle, his name's Calcifer, and he'd really like to sniff you while you pat him. #nztwits
