Take A Bow<p>re- <a href="https://sharkey.world/tags/introduction" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#introduction</a><span> <br><br>I've been around the Fediverse for at least 7 years. I've left logins all over the place, which mostly now just follow this account. I settled on Sharkey for its features. And besides, how could software from a trans group be bad, eh?<br><br>I'm a very old techie. When I was a kid, we had to program the bootstrap code in binary by using switches on the front panel. Uphill, both ways. My favorite language was Pascal. It was so fucking safe and deterministic, you had to work really hard to create a bug.<br><br>Professionally, I was originally a biomedical engineer, then a marketing manager for a well-known, racist, and anti-Semitic company in Texas, then freelanced until I retired a few years ago. I've a few patents, including a software patent with probably the most claims of any software patent ever. Because I wrote it myself, and I was fucking with them because patents and copyrights have really lost sight of their original intention.<br><br>Unprofessionally, I was an actor and performance artist, poet, photographer, and a man of ridiculously poor life choices with gusto. How else do you learn anything?<br><br>What I post is usually photos, sometimes quotes, and maybe film reviews. Also, our blog if we ever get back to doing that. Currently, we're in Canada, and there's at least a 50-50 chance I'll be asking for perm residence. We're running a Bed & Breakfast in Toronto: 35acores.com<br></span><a href="https://sharkey.world/tags/Travel" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Travel</a> <a href="https://sharkey.world/tags/Nomad" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nomad</a> <a href="https://sharkey.world/tags/vanlife" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vanlife</a> <a href="https://sharkey.world/tags/rv" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rv</a> <a href="https://sharkey.world/tags/photography" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photography</a></p>
