I just decided to start asking this instead of ‘what do you do?’ when meeting people. Figured I’d try it out on you folks.

I’m working on an audiobook of a novel I wrote. I have another recording session today with voice actors who play my characters!
Philosophical ramblings to justify my existence, which according to capitalism has no value because I don’t have the ability to work.
I have a big sprawling scifi universe I draw pictures of. There is a lot of lore in my head for it that I really am going to write down and present now that there are so many visuals.
I created an email service called https://port87.com
It’s got fancy features that help you stay organized and spam free.
I also create loads of open source software, which I use for it:
https://sveltematerialui.com - A UI library for the Svelte framework.
https://nymph.io - An object relational mapper for Node.js and the browser.
https://github.com/sciactive/nephele - A WebDAV server with encryption, deduplication, and S3 support.
My body is a machine that turns caffeine into uptime.
I am a senior data architect and infrastructure programmer. I build the tools and design the data persistence that folks at my company use to build solutions for clients.
A hopeful path towards peace for people who struggle with stress at their job.
Resentment in others.
Tools that are used to create human misery on a mass scale.
I have a podcast that I create with a couple of friends. We take an ordinary object—such as a ceiling fan, or a paper clip, or a toilet brush—and we create a movie plot based on that object. The show is called Almost Plausible, and can be found wherever you listen to podcasts.
I had a shop that made flaming nipple tassels, though I just closed down until the future is more certain. I also create sideshow and fire performances. My most recent one involves a drill and my skull.
And finally, a lot of D&D content, such as an entire world setting inspired by the tarot deck

This just makes me so happy!
This month I’m building Bluetooth headphones for a teen I work with, he needs them to function but his parents won’t spend money on them and he keeps breaking the cheap sets he has.
I’m working with a school metal shop to make steel frames for them and I’ve made the cups 3d printable and easy to replace. Of he does manage to break these, it will take no skill to repair them.
